Steel 0 #51 March 7, 2006 QuoteI'ver never seen a real homecoming King/Queen contest before, is it how I think it is where the jock football captain and his cheerleading girlfriend usually win or is that just in the movies? When I graduated high school (91), they did have a homecoming King/Queen contest. As I recall, a football player (not the captain) won and a cheerleader who was not his girlfreind won. I do believe that the students who gave a shit voted on this contest. I wasn't one that voted. ,If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass. Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound. Nothing to eat, no books to read. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shotgun 1 #52 March 7, 2006 QuoteI AM THREATENED about the current state our society is in. I am scared for my future kids, who will have to grow up in a society without morals Why would your future kids have to grow up in a society without morals? Or do you mean they will have to grow up in a society that is not completely governed by Christian morals? Oh, and as for the "king" thing... one of the definitions for "king" is "One that is supreme or preeminent in a particular group, category, or sphere." No mention of sex in that definition... Not that it really matters, since it's just some silly homecoming event at a liberal arts college. I would imagine that a Christian college would not allow such things, so that might be a good place to send your kids if your are worried about them having too much contact with moral diversity. (Hmm, though with the way I have seen Christians argue about who is a true Christian and who is not, I might be wrong about the moral diversity thing.)

This nomination is abhorent! The definition of KING is "leader of a sovereign land" but speaker's corner is an internet bulletin board, not land at all! This PC nonsense must be stopped!

windcatcher 0 #68 March 7, 2006 QuoteWhy can't people accept that a home coming king is a male, and a lesbian is a female. I don't see why everyone is turning this into an anti-gay protest. I'm all for equal rights for everybody, but do we have to be so damn PC that we are afraid to tell a female lesbian she isn't a guy and can't be king? Really her being a lesbian has nothing to do with it. It's the fact that a female has won what should be a male's position. I completely agree, again! I guess it ISN'T PC to have definitions of what a woman is and a what a man is and Shotgun, your question about morals: are lying, cheating, stealing, killing, strictly Christian morals, or do other societies adopt these same "rules" for living? But maybe you're right, there is nothing wrong with cheating on someone or lying, after all our society seems to think these things are okay. Mother to the cutest little thing in the world...

I would like to announce that, in addition to promoting our excellent admin assistant (Gloria) to King of the Floor, I have put new socks on. If this is about the wardrobe choices of the day, I chose 33's, which good because they fit like 34's did last week. I probably could of done 32's but they wouldn't have been as comfortable. Hopefully 32's will be as comfortable next week as the 33's were today. I need to loose like 10-15 lbs to get my fall rate from bowling ball fast down to very fast. ,If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass.

Shotgun 1 #71 March 7, 2006 Quoteyour question about morals: are lying, cheating, stealing, killing, strictly Christian morals, or do other societies adopt these same "rules" for living? Those are the type of morals that most people, even non-Christians, share. The morals I have are based on not hurting other people, and I'm pretty sure that I would have those same morals even if Christianity never existed. Quotethere is nothing wrong with cheating on someone or lying, after all our society seems to think these things are okay. There are people in our society who seem to think those things are ok (though I'm not one of them)... And personally, I find that to be much more of a concern than worrying about the sexual orientation of other healthy and sane adults. Edited to say: Well unless it involves lying to GTAVercetti about wearing pants... That's when it's ok to lie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 3,031 #73 March 7, 2006 >If this is about the wardrobe choices of the day, I chose 33's . . . I have mostly 33's. They fit great before I left for Thailand/Australia. I now weigh exactly the same as I did when I left, but the 33's are hanging off me. So what the heck is up with that? People are arguing about these silly things here in SC when I have a serious sizing issue going on here! What, am I going to have to go back to my ragged 32-sized jeans?
