Do you realize how bigoted that sentence is?

Oh dear you've decided to use the word bigot, now the debate gets
stupid.

Bigot: (n) : a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own
opinions and prejudices

silly me, I used a "forbidden" word, simply because it seemed appropriate.
Guess I'll have to stay away from those hot-button words.  Next thing you
know, I'll bring up Hitler, and lose the arguement by default.

You are bigoted because you are intolerant of the opinion I have
expressed here.

Not at all - I think you're wrong, but you are entitled to have any opinion
you like, just as I am.

*** THIS DISCUSSION HAS NOW BEEN TERMINATED ***
*** SEE REPLY TO JAMES BROWN'S POST ***
Neither you, nor anyone else, excluding Todd & Suzanne, have any right to
terminate a conversation in this forum.(1)

You suggested terminating this discussion, I did a concluding statement
and you wouldn't let it lie - I thought LUGNET was civilised now I know
it's no different to the slagging match of RTL.

I didn't suggest to terminate the discussion - I said I didn't see the point
of continuing, since you were unwilling to defend your statements.  That still
seems to be the case.  You have ignored the counter-arguments presented, and
jumped on me for using the term bigot.

(...) First (...) I will assume you are talking about Leviticus 18:22, yes? Tell me, do wear cotton/poly blend t-shirts? How well do you keep Kosher? How about hair cuts? Do you trim your beard? Leviticus 19:19, 19:26, and 19:27, respectively. All (...) (26 years ago, 19-May-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
