Top 10 Reasons Gay Marriage Should Be Illegal

Top 10 Reasons Gay Marriage Should Be Illegal

12 Nov, 2006 General, -Funneh

Top Ten Reasons to Make Gay Marriage Illegal

01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all like many of the principles on which this great country was founded; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of marriages like Britney Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.

07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.

09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans. .

Turn Google into Napster

clipper's remarks: awesome!

Clip Source: tech-tonic.net

Okay peeps, I’m sure most of you know how to use Limewire and Bittorrent these days. But, I’ll bet you haven’t used Google to perform a quick Mp3 search for the nagging song that’s been stuck in your head all day. The truth is that Google can be used to conduct a search for almost any file type, including Mp3s, PDFs, and videos. This functionality has been available for a long time, but most users haven’t caught on to it. So here’s a quick example of how to use Google to search for Mp3s. It’s like turning Google into the Napster of 2000.

The following is a Google search string for searching open web directories containing downloadable Nirvana music files. Substitute the term Nirvana in the search string for any other band of your liking. You can always bookmark the search result for future use.

-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(wma|mp3) “Nirvana”

With some very slight modifications the same search string can easily be used to search for ebooks in DOC and PDF format:

-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(pdf|doc) “george orwell 1984″

Or perhaps your looking for some specific video file:

-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(mpg|wmv) “towelie”

You can check the official Google Advanced Search Operators page for further details on editing this search string to meet your specific needs. Enjoy yourselves!

Now thry this http://www.briefli.com/ link it does exactly what we tought of doing above.

clipped by: deanknows
clipper's remarks: I think I have pretty much all of these beliefs.

Clip Source: web.archive.org

Here are just a few of the self-defeating beliefs that lead to depression, anxiety or anger. Are any of them are similar to the way you sometimes think and feel?

Ten Common Self-Defeating Beliefs
emotional perfectionism	I should always feel happy, confident, and in control of my emotions.
emotophobia	I should never feel angry, anxious, inadequate, jealous or vulnerable.
conflict phobia	People who love each other shouldn't fight.
entitlement	People should be the way I expect them to be.
low frustration tolerance	I should never be frustrated. Life should be easy.
performance perfectionism	I must never fail or make a mistake.
perceived perfectionism	People will not love and accept me as a flawed and vulnerable human being.
fear of failure	My worthwhileness as a human being depends on my achievements (or my intelligence, status, or attractiveness).
fear of disapproval or criticism	I need everybody's approval to be worthwhile.
fear of rejection or being alone	If I'm alone, then I'm bound to feel miserable and unfulfilled. If I'm not loved, then life is not worth living.
