Besides the position that you described, I also see the use of arguments that are clearly false to support a position.
For example, anti-gay rights advocates continue to use Leviticus to say that "god hates fags." Anyone with the most basic knowledge of the bible should know that most of Leviticus is simply out of date. Besides condeming homosexuality, it also endorses slavery, burning people alive, and a whole bunch of other crap that we know are wrong today. Yet, people like the rat and whatever continue to use Leviticus for some reason that is beyond me.
That is intellectual dishonesty.

For goodness's sake, please vote Democrat this November!
Why? Bush is a right wing nutcase.

Actually, I love shellfish. I grew up in a very tropical coastal area. I love seafood in general.

You don't have to worry about me. I'm actually scared of the opposite sex.
