The Religion Thread

[sparks]

stanky, you can retain your anonymity by simply employing the private messaging system that is part of this forum. And as I enjoy my anonymity as much as you do, you'll understand why I will not give you my email address.

With your claimed accomplishments, I fail to understand why you're concerned about your anonymity. Unless you're in some witness protection program. And if you are, you bloody well wouldn't be here in the first place, fake username not withstanding. Are you really that scared that if someone puts 2 and 2 together the Great Unwashed will descend on the stankerosa and ruin your and Mary's (another fake name I presume for her protection of course) lives?
Can't quite buy that as it's too far out there for my tastes in reality.

Do I think you're a fraud? No as the word itself implies malicious intent. Anything further would be mere speculation regarding your motives and frankly I have better things to do with my time.

You do seem ultra concerned that linking to your alleged works will ...blow your cove and that this will somehow have negative consequences for you.

That's really about all that can be said about why you do what you do here with any degree of certainty.

My opinion is this: It's all just a little too unbelievable.

Fact remains, if you can't or won't provide evidences of you claims, you have no right to be pissed off when people question your veracity. That's not in the spirit of good debating and it won't fly.

You 2 sound quite certain that i'm a fraud.

I don't think you're a fraud. I simply want you to back up your claims with evidence.

what?

You won't give me your email address, yet expect me to reveal all? Seems unfair.
It's quite irksome. How about a wager? Put something up. I'll prove that I'm a published author, and that I'v been featured in several magazines for $200.

It's a distasteful thing for me. I don't go around bragging about accomplishments. You accuse me of dishonesty. Them's fighting words. You'll be out money and i'll be out of here. I have every right to be pissed off at you. You're still trying to lay down rules for me. You're accusing me of being a liar. You don't want to reveal your identity but expect me to. That's against my rules.
How can i trust that you'll pay-up? You aren't an honorable human.

That is the most childish hot mess of shit I've ever heard you spew stanky. And I will not justify it with a response. Rules of debate: You make a claim, it's incumbent on you to provide evidence. You wanna change the rules? No. Take your football and go home.

Buh bye now.

I have an idea.

Instead of sniping at each other like everyone else in the world, let's let bygones be bygones and move on to more important things.

Like this, for example - it fits perfectly in the religion thread, because it's driven by religious zealots.

Disabled Aussies will no longer be able to use government funding to fuck: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-11-29/ ... /104469526

I didn't see an argument for cutting it in that article. I'd like to see why anyone thinks NDIS participants shouldn't have the ability to employ legal sex workers.

Didn't see evidence of the situation being driven by religious zealots , but if true then they are, like everyone else, required to provide a good argument including evidence that the cuts are a rational move.

At this point I must admit I'm biased against the religious due to their delusional and magical faith driven thinking.

Good point. Agreed.

There are still a lot of deeply religious people in the Australian government who believe that sex work is an evil that should be stamped out.
