If I simply got a dollar for every one of these vicious comments, I would be a rather wealthy man right now. We get it in their comments on a regular basis. We can really see the love and feel the tolerance. Yes we can all see just how committed their side is to love and tolerance. All in the name of “love and acceptance” of course, as Tracey in the first comment put it. They instead prefer to spew forth reams of hatred and abuse. So how does the other side respond? Does it try to refute these facts? Does it try to deal with the evidence? Does it proffer counterarguments? Nope, not on your life. Everything said there is completely verifiable. I have all of these facts fully documented elsewhere, especially in my new book, Strained Relations: The Challenge of Homosexuality. There I simply list in bullet point fashion some facts on this issue. As I have pointed out so often, it is always far easier to simply throw mud and attack a person than it is to actually engage intelligently with the evidence.īoth these comments were sent to this much older post about same-sex adoption: Notice again in both cases we do not have one iota of argument or debate, but simply one long ad hominem attack. Here as well we can certainly feel the love. It is similar to another comment which I did allow to go through: “You are a chauvanistic discriminatory b**tard! you have absolutly NO facts to back up your so called “studies”! Its dumba**es like you that are so uncomfortable with your own sexuality that you cant be comfortable with some one thats outside your “norm”! Get out of your 1950?s stereotypes and realize that homosexuals are just as juman and American as you or anyone else! So you can take your typical conservative believes and shove ‘em!” And notice also how these guys (in this case a female) argue: not a scrap of evidence, fact or argumentation just plenty of abuse. I am relieved to know the world is in such good hands: such love, acceptance and tolerance. Hey, can’t you just feel the love and acceptance? It is oozing out of her comment. This does not make sense at all, I am shocked that there are people like you who are so narrow minded and opposed to love.” I can assure you that same sex adoption will be fully accepted in the future because my generation is fuelled by love and acceptance. I of course have to tone it down so that it is suitable for public consumption: “You are a s**t head. ![]() There is heaps of it around, and each new day brings forth a fresh batch of this ugly stuff.Ĭonsider just one example from this morning’s supply. I could easily write a book filled with examples of this “tolerance”. ![]() And in my three decades of involvement in the culture wars, I can tell you right now who carries on the most about tolerance, love, and acceptance: the militant atheist fundamentalists, and the militant homosexual crusaders.īoth carry on incessantly about the need to be tolerant and open to others, yet both can be the most intolerant, hate-filled and nasty folks around. I have written often before about just how intolerant those who shout the loudest about tolerance are. But I guess we have to take the good with the bad here. That is one of the downsides of the Internet Age: the haters can much more easily send out their poison. It’s just that it comes in a lot easier and quicker nowadays. Same hate, same abuse, and same ugliness. In the old days it came in the mail box, but now it appears in my inbox. No sooner have I deleted yesterday’s batch when a new supply comes in with the morning emails. I can always tell it is a new day – I just have to open my inbox and there it is: the latest batch of hate mail.
