...but... but why?

Approaching the issue of homosexuality by saying things like "hate the sin, not the sinner" is not making yourself into any less of a bigot.

What you are essentially saying is, "I love you, and you're fine the way you are, as long as you never attempt to seek out love and affection, or an intimate and loving…

That's even better than being attractive and lady-dating.

I think diabetes runs in my dad's side of the family, but I'm not in contact with them so I can't be sure. I eat very little packaged food, mostly bulk grains/fruits/veggies etc so my doctor is always surprised at how high my blood sugar is.

This is why God gave us Kindles.

According to Seattle friends who are familiar with the troop, Long Hair Man has sex with women. Therefore, there is a chance we could brush his hair and things. He looks like fun.

A bit off topic, but I think Mod Carousel sounds better than Robin Thicke. I would much rather hear their version on the radio than his. Anyone else with me?

Hooray for being vegan! I also eat a lot of fruit, but it takes me months to finish a bag of skittles or sour patch kids. I'm not even joking - I can only eat a few at a time before I feel dizzy from the sugar. I can eat fruit all day and be fine.

Oh man, one bite of pineapple and my tongue is shredded. But I don't care. Traveling through SE Asia, they cut pineapple in spirals (how did I never know the spines were in perfect spirals??) and shove them on a stick. A whole pineapple as a lollipop. For like 75 cents. Amazing. I kept eating them and my friend…

Your cardiologist is an idiot.

With KN relationships, you can do both. In fact, you should do both.

You're absolutely right - this is knee-jerky for me because as an abuse victim, seeing others repeat their own horrible treatment disgusts me, and it bothers me so much when I see them get a pass. I realize that you weren't doing that.

That there was a personal history of abuse makes it "extra sad" because two generations of abuse is sadder than one generation of abuse, simply by virtue of quantity.

I may be a little late to this conversation and if I am, I'm really sorry. But seriously, he won't even hold your hand in public?

I went through 4.5 years of being a dental school spouse. You deserve to be in there. I'm going to hold out hope that the best friend he's talking about is you.

No worries, I wasn't having a go at you :) I completely understand where you're coming from.

I just find it important to note that, as I am not certain, I'm open to fact based evidence and if given proof and rational reasons, could change my mind.

Well, it doesn't outright, actually. Most atheists I know, myself included, are more along the lines of "Well, no, we can't 100% perfectly prove that there's no such thing as god. But we can't 100% prove that there aren't a lot of things, such as leprechauns, fairies or invisible teapots orbiting the earth. But there…

You are a professional. I'm sure we can't get many of those things here in New Zealand (I did recently uncover a hazelnut spread that's fine) but I like that you can veganise pretty much anything if you put your mind to it/live in America. :)

YES I CAN ANSWER THIS. Cookie butter is vegan! I'm eating it from the container right now. Honey = I used an agave/maple syrup blend, marshmallow fluff = suzanne's rice mellow creme, and I used Justin's chocolate-hazelnut butter for Nutella!
