Yep, "roast" in that context entered my mind, too, OB.
Okay, am I off on the gender of Jo, by the way? I see the name "Jo" and automatically think "female" because of a female friend of mine from childhood who had that name with that spelling. If I'm wrong, mea culpa and I offer my apologies.

Re: Harper vows free vote on gay marriage
Actually you haven't proven your intitial statement to be correct. As the genes come from the parents, the genes are passed down to the child, it does not make a bit of difference if that couple is straight or not.
Homosexuals reproduce and pass their DNA down the line. Not only that they are the result of hetrosexuals couples as well as homosexual couples who seek other methods of reproducing. They have produced another life. Therefore they are not a "dead end" as you so callously put it.

Answer - i smell something burning
"Doctor Penfield. I smell burnt toast!"
Dear Hogwild. Did you not read anybody's post??
You SO lost!!!
You begin to lose when you take a position that is false on the face of the facts - or premis - (known as 'prima faca' evidence). But that's alright. That is often the reality of formal debate, and a challenge for that position to overcome.
You further lose when you fail to present any facts to support your position, but instead prattle on with repeating your premis as though it is its own proof. That is just a sad example of someone who has no clue on how to debate. Nor does it show any understanding of the structure of logic
You continue to lose when you fail to respond to saliant points made by others. This fails you at following your own dictum of 'point - countrpoint'. You championed yourself as the person who would define the form that the discussion would take and then failed to follow that form - - bad form ol' chappy - -
And you ultimately lose because, not only did everybody else stomp your sorry ass into the ground, but your too much of a loser to admit it.

RE: Harper vows free vote
Personally I think it is silly to even be discussing this issue. Canada nor any other country (Belgium,Spain, Holland, South Africa) that has legalized ssm and calls it what it is, marriage has not gone to "hell" or "imploded" as many on the right predicted.
What I do not understand is how the "right" does not believe in equality for all, reguardless of sexual orientation.
Wouldn't it be better if they were to teach their children tolerance, and that prejudice, discrimmination is wrong, instead of teaching them hate?

RE: Harper vows free vote on gay marriage
I will say only one thing. The public should be requested to vote on subjects that are in regard, changing the constitution. I dont care the topic, it is fundamentally wrong for the "House" to project these kinds of things on the public. If the MP's actually voted for the people, not themselves, or their leader. These things would go drastically different. We vote them in, to speak on our behalf, not their behalf, their leaders behalf, or their party. It is not democracy when that direct line is severed from the people. Such big decisions have to be requested of the people. The former PM, and now Martin, all whipped there party like slaves from old. That is a watered down Dictatorship tactic. I have no respect for these proceedings, or even acknowledge half of the decisions that come out of that den of thieves.
