I have the right to be outraged about the people who are outraged about it  
>say "the only consequence should be people getting mad at you"
>get mad when that happens
I can't even tell what your stance is

3557
the only consequence being someone else exercising their freedom on you.
That's what's happening now
People are expressing their freedom to protest and not buy from them

3558
Just imagine if it was all a scam though.

I bet that restaurant would have vivid and painful memories about how they let 700k get away.
The gofundme was started by the same media outlet that got them into this mess; a mess that they had to have known would happen
Just let that fact sit with you for a moment

Now I'm normally the last person to shout "conspiracy!" but this just feels really fishy

Edit: actually maybe I'm misreading what they're saying in the gofundme

It's not even a fundraiser anymore at this point
It's just a circlejerk of Christians saying "thank you for having the same opinion"
I wish I could come up with a nicer term, but I legitimately am trying and can't

except america is a christian nation
The only thing that makes America a "Christian" nation in any sense is a majority Christian population. No part of the government or the nation itself is Christian; the only mention of religion in the constitution is excluding it as a requirement of office, and there is a document (I forget which) that specifically says the us is not founded upon Christianity

Dude I'm all pro choice... Finding a cure does not mean everyone would have to convert, it just means that the people who want to would get to convert... How is this bad in any way?

Honestly the moment people stop thinking being homoloveual is something that cannot be changed then research will be done.
There's nothing wrong with a "cure"
The problem is, as I've said before, that the resources are better spent elsewhere

3561
Around 10% of the human population is gay, there would be high demand if a cure would actually be found.
Statistics have varied from 10% to like 3%
And not every single one of those would want the cure
For many, it would mean breaking a happy relationship.
If the "cure" could work the other way, don't forget to include the people who would want to be gay for whatever reason ( before you ask, I have seen people legitimately like this. Most complaints involve them finding women annoying)


At this point, I don't think the gay couple even has anything to do with the situation anymore.
There never was a gay couple. The restaurant was asked if they would cater a hypothetical gay wedding

You say "more helpful" as if gay conversion therapies do some kind of good.
And you say "cure" as if homoloveuality is some kind of illness.
There's a reason why I'm putting it in quotes; I'm quoting him. I share your opinion, try reading my other posts and you'll see that

"Oh we haven't found a cure to cancer, lets stop researching"
Now you're just trying too hard

3562
How about not being able to conceive? Some people feel adoption is not the same.
How about finding it hard to find a partner? There are far less homoloveual people than straight...
1. Is kind of half a problem, if that makes sense. They're still biologically capable of conception, they'd just rather not do it directly. There's surrogate mothers and sperm donors. It's hella expensive and still not quite the same, but it's still a hell of a lot less if a problem than being disowned by your family or fired from your job
2. Is moreso of finding partners through the right channels. A guy can't just go up to and start hitting on a random guy as easily as he could a girl, but there are plenty of areas catered to gays

Also I'm not just assuming the above, I have a gay friend who has told me all the problems he's having being gay.
I don't have these problems

loving hell, there are specialists for every different medical field, it's not like someone researching cancer is qualified to research homoloveuality... that would be more leaned towards psychological science.
OK yeah sure
But why would someone choose to specialize is "gay curing" when they could specialize in something more helpful

3563
I think we're assuming the reason people are unhappy is solely due to discrimination?

 Im certain there are other hardships to being gay
1. That is exactly it
2. No, not really

3564
Also I don't believe there is absolutely no way to treat people for homoloveuality

Many people who are gay would like to be straight, it's not easy to live being gay, I hope one day people will stop being so uptight about it and allow research to be done for those who find homoloveuality a burden on themselves. The way society is going though indicates otherwise unfortunately.
1. Conversion therapy has been tried, studied, and found to do no help. There could theoretically be a way to change it, but...

2. Whereas having an illness is hard because the illness itself is hard, the only reason being gay is hard is because of people. The solution to being gay being hard is to fix people being a jerk about it. Time spent researching a "cure" for homoloveuality is time taken away from researching a cure for actual diseases


Self Delete rates are very high for homoloveuals presumably because there's a relationship between being gay and unhappy.
Holy forget lol

3565
Uh...
At this point, anyone without a huge bias in their mind would realize they're giving money to a for-profit company that no longer hasa need for fundraising.There's no purpose to do so other than to say "yes thank you for having the same opinion as me"
You can disagree with that all you like, but you can't deny that the purpose of this fundraiser was to raise money to handle the media and they've raised waaaaay more then necessary.


I don't wanna be rude here or say being gay is wrong cause it's not, but humans are supposed to be straight so they're attracted to the opposite gender and reproduce.
Yeah that was a stupid question that didn't come out the way I imagined it. I'm not sure what I was thinking

3566
,memories pizza has raised more than half a million dollars, which is now at $586,949
This has gone way past the point of "helping them with media'
Now it's just circlejerk of Christians going " LOOK AT HOW MUCH MONEY WE'VE RAISED, LOOK HOW RIGHT WE ARE "

whereas for other people they might not be.
And I'm pointing out why this is

homoloveuality is something that is not supposed to happen, even though it does.
How do you classify what's "supposed to happen"

Imagine how good their loving pizza is gonna be once they reopen
At this point I won't be surprised if they just take the money and leave
How well were they doing business wise, before this?

3567
idk man apparently having religious objections to a single action someone does or wants to do makes you a bigot
That's not what he's saying
What he's saying is your brown townogy is bad
See my post

keyword : yet
What are you even trying to say?

3568
How is this even related to what I said... lol
Both are things the bible is against, yet for some reason people only care about one.
I have zero comprehension of how you could think it's not related, so I don't even know how else to answer that.

3569
i guess not performing abortions as an obgyn makes you hate women
See:
the forget
Like seriously this is a horrible brown townogy
You're comparing choosing who gets your service to what service you perform. A better brown townogy would be deciding only white women can get abortions from you.

I know a few people who don't agree with gay marriage because they are believers and the Bible pretty much says that marriage should be a man-woman thing.
And yet the bible takes a firm stance against divorce and no one gives a stuff about that. In fact, conservative groups actually have higher divorce rates. This is why people say they're not upholding the bibles values, they're just using it as an excuse to justify they're own values

Suggestions & Requests / Re: "kill shooter if victim outside minigame"

I'm not really certain why this is necessary in the first place. There is no reason to try and punish someone for trying to do something that has straight up doesn't do anything.
Unfortunately there are a lot of people who join servers just to see what guns you have and shoot you with them, and it's rather annoying.

It's really not something that can be controlled with a simple script, the solution depends in what kind of server you're hosting. If you're hosting a build, disable weapons, etc
