Dr. Ben does not want gay marriage to be a thing because his church says that gawd is obsessed with what consenting adults do in their bedrooms. He does not want reproductive choice to be a thing because his church says that every sperm is sacred. He thinks that the earth was created 6000 years ago. He does not think that global climate change is real.

Does he actually have a position that ISN'T based on his science denial and his willingness to turn our secular democracy into a theocracy?

Because it doesn't look like it, cupcake.

Do you even know what website you're on?

I know he has those believes and doesn't want government involved in many of those decisions. I see your point. Thanks for the response.

I see. Sorry if you thought I was labeling people haters. I was simply trying to state that people won't agree with everyone and we should expect that. I wasn't implying that everyone here was a hater. Thanks for your response.

Considering he wants HIS government that reflects HIS beliefs to make reproductive decisions for women and marriage decisions for gay people, it's really an incredible stretch to claim that he "doesn't want government involved in many of those decisions."

So you're here to correct all of us snarky libz who dare to point out that Dr. Ben's a moran?

No, not at all. I like to hear all points of view. I hope that doesn't bother you.

sgt. jmk de la résistance's avatar

Nope... doesn't bother me at all.

Just as a suggestion, though...when you come to self-described "snark mob" website to "hear all points of view," it might help you to actually hear the points of view better if you first learn what snark means, and then restrain yourself from scolding the holders of points of view you don't share for their snark.

Just sayin'.

When I was an undergrad I asked God for help on one organic chemistry test question, and he was all like, "How in the hell am I supposed to know where the hydroxide attacks during nucleophilic substitution?" This is exactly why I am an atheist. By the way, God: It usually happens at a saturated aliphatic carbon, you douchebag.

More expensive. Lower quality.

As Homer would say: Mmmmm, chemicals.

More likely a curse for something we did wrong.

"delusions of grandeur"? I've been led to believe that this is a requirement for a neurosurgeon.
