    How Mark feels talking to us:

    “If you even suggest there’s the slightest chance that gays are deviants who are unequal to heterosexuals, he just puts up this mental barrier,” said Dunham’s brother-in-law, Wayne Byers, who claimed his repeated efforts to educate Dunham about how all gay men are pedophiles was “like talking to a brick wall.” “Once he retreats into that mindset, forget it. You can counter every single one of his arguments with irrefutable Scripture all day, but you’re not getting through. Even when I try to tell him these aren’t just my personal beliefs, but the consensus opinion of leading pastors and radio personalities, he’s still not convinced.”

    When I was a teenager, I listened to the Insane Clown Posse (don't judge). One of them had a solo EP titled "Fuck off!" and the cover was a drawing of him giving the finger and grabbing his crotch.

    As a fan, I had the expected wardrobe but a friend of mine had a T-shirt with the album cover on it and the back had "Fuck off!" in big, bold letters. (there was a censored version, but his was uncensored.)

    Now, I had the wardrobe you would expect of someone of my disposition but even I thought wearing that in public was crossing a line. My decision was validated when we were on a road trip and we stopped at a rest area. He had to explain to the grandmother of a young child why he was wearing such a shirt.

    On the other hand, it's complete bullshit that adidas had to stop selling these World Cup shirts:

    The shirt designs touched a nerve in Brazil, where people often complain about foreign stereotypes of Brazilian sensuality. Brazil's government is campaigning aggressively to shed the country's reputation as a destination for sex tourism. ...

    Dilma Rousseff, Brazil´s first woman president, said her government would crack down on sex tourism and the exploitation of children and adolescents during the Cup, which is expected to draw 600,000 foreign fans.

    Are we sure Mark didn't mean to say figs? Not that the shirt is much better since most people can't read.

    I would tend to go with that...except the "i" and the "a" are on other sides of the keyboard.

    Any "religion" that believes God "hates" anything or anyone is seriously deranged.
