    Reverse vampires would be cool but unfortunately like Alphareds video it has nothing to do with the referendum. I would love some kind of vote on it though.

    The video is about cultural subversion. That is exactly what's going on.

    I'll ask you not to be so short sighted and closed minded about gay people. The world won't end by letting them be equals.

    I cannot pretend a gay couple is the same as a straight couple. The issue is not with someone who happens to be gay the issue is with the real world implications of changing the constitution.

    Nobody is asking you to. Sameness is not the same thing as equality.

    This is the same as this and equal (but not the same) to this.

    Real world? I am not confident you have any connection with it anymore. Of all the nonsense ... war?

    The Ashers judgment will work in our favour too. Everyone knows it was wrong and they'll take that to the polls on Friday

    I think some of your last few posts belong in the My mate is a primate thread. Talk about going off topic with conspiracy theories.

    Are you saying that you are a homophobe then? If so you can be helped.

    Absolutely war. You think people will allow their identities to be taken away from them? Christian business are being attacked and people will not stand for that. As gays can boycott christian business do you not think they will organize and the same thing to gay business? The are a billion Christians, 1.4 billion muslims and many more other religions. Do you really want to take them on?

    The gay lobby is a conspiracy theory now? Look it up. They are trying to change churches in countries where gay marriage was legalized.

    Just please stop with the same old tired accusations. Being a NO Voter doesn't make you a homophobe

    You're responsible for your own perception. If you attack people's identities they will act to defend themselves.

    I'd prefer if religion didn't exist. Now you'll be telling me that I'll be starting a one man war too!!

    I know voting no doesn't make you a homophobe but what you are saying does.

    How do you know religion isn't biological like homosexuality?

    You're a religa-phobe

    You should know the deal by now? Legitimate source, please?

    Em...maybe because I made a conscious decision to remove myself from all religion after studying the evidence. Homosexual people can't make that decision. It is not possible to decide that you are gay or not. It can't be learned and it can't be forced upon you like religion.

    I am most certainly not a religa-phobe. It does not scare me. It does not intimidate me.

    That is not a legitimate source. It is a very biased source. Reading that website is like reading an ISIS website but for christianity.

    Yes but religion is a naturally occurring phenomenon that happens in all cultures across the globe. I think it's in our DNA. Do you have any spiritual beliefs?

    This has nothing to do with the referendum. Please stop spouting your Lolek Ltd. crap and go back on topic.

    I wish to disengage from talking about religion when it is a civil matter we are voting on.

    Religion is natural now but homosexuality isn't.

    Right....

    There are Christian lobbies, gay lobbies, oil lobbies, gas lobbies, telecommunication lobbies, one man lobby that contacts his TD, farmer lobbies....the list is endless. Lobby groups exist for everything. I wish they didn't and they let us get on as a secular state but they are there.

    They claim the church and schools will not be affected by gay marriage and yet we see proof in other countries that the church and schools are affect.
