    Delta Green? What the heck is that? (Why do I feel like I'm about to inspire a whole lot of chat with that question?) Aw crud! I thought I was going to be post 1000! Favorite Christmas cookie?

    Book of the Month 2012

    WOOT! I know we have a lot of Pratchett fans too so if we go that direction there's the Wee Free Men books to look at. Oh dear, I'm all excited about all the books I want to suggest now. Sad, it takes so little to get me hyped up these days. :lol:

    Anyone want to do a Secret Santa for 2012?

    Um...mailing time? I think we need to do it a bit earlier if its going over a big pond. I know the cut off from here to anything overseas is mid November.

    Book of the Month 2012

    I'd be interested, but I am also not into scholarly musings. I'd like us to look at some young adult stuff as I think its a genre that is really taking off. Some interesting stuff in there.

    Gay marriage

    And you resent beer good's comments? This is what you call a "clean" argument? You'll defend a faith you do not espouse, but deny me the right to question and criticize? And imply you know enough about me to suggest I abandon my faith. You got balls Bob, I'll give you that.

    Gay marriage

    Conscious Bob, are you telling me that I need to agree with EVERYTHING the Catholic church says and does to call myself Catholic? I sincerely hope you're kidding. Apparently if you choose to call yourself Catholic you need to relinquish critical thinking and speech? That's ridiculous. I also...

    Gay marriage

    I'm a little confused actually. Conscious Bob, what point exactly are you trying to make? That the Catholic church is right or wrong in their stance on gay marriage? I'm still baffled about how my description of what I've been told about the Catholic church's view on gay marriage in Canada...

    Not my hairsplitting, the church's.

    Gay marriage

    @Conscious Bob. Maybe the Catholic church is a little more old fashioned in Scotland. Here in Canada, the churches I have attended do not say being gay is wrong. They say gay SEX is wrong and therefore a marriage is out of the question. They do however also preach tolerance and love thy...

    Gay marriage

    Agreed Bob. I'm Catholic and I'd hate to be presumed a child abuser because of that. How would you be imposing your morals on Catholics or any other religion if the gay marriage became legal? They could still choose to teach whatever they wish in the schools they run. They could also choose...

    Gay marriage

    Does Scotland have only Catholic schools? I don't quite understand the implication on moral teaching. Isn't the moral that you should commit yourself to a relationship? No one needs to comment on the composition of that relationship. I can't see that the Catholic church has much of a leg...

    Where are you? (in the book you are reading) - please read 1st post

    I'm in San Francisco, in the museum I am curator for, and have just discovered that someone masquerading as me has robbed the joint!
