Christ.. I can't believe I'm actually writing this. But I have to admit that what must be done needs to be done.
I guess first I need to apologize to everyone that took every questionable thing that I have said to heart. The whole reason that I started the group, 'Rational Irrationale', was to give people a place to debate ideals without fear of being looked down upon for it. Lately, things have been pretty racy. Don't get me wrong.. I enjoy a nice heated debate. Sometimes, I don't mind hurting some feelings. But this time has been pushed too far. I wrote about everyone having the right to say how they feel, except for the people who are "intolerant." Anyone who knows me on here knows that I am not the hatemonger that my arguments make me out to be. To be honest, one-sided discussions are just boring, to me. When someone writes a thread and welcomes open discussion, I'm compelled to reply on behalf of the counter-culture. It doesn't mean I hate any of you, though. Gay, straight, black, white, brown, Christian, Muslim, I don't care. I won't explain myself any further, nor make up any excuses, or kiss anyone's ass because of what I did. The best that I can do is say that I'm sorry that I rubbed anyone the wrong way. I won't say anything in my own defense to try to make what I did right. Even with good intentions, wrong is still wrong.
I don't expect anyone to forgive me. All I ask is that you hear my apology. I am sorry to all of you. Jack and Roseistix especially, and everyone that got caught in the crossfire. I'm sorry.
Kup, you do not owe me an apology. And I never thought you were a "hatemonger." For reasons, that are mine alone, i will not be writing anymore opinions. I will keep in touch w/ you, please do the same. Btw, I was going to write a "pro" opinion on Gay Marriage. May have been an interesting debate. Your Friend Jack
