(commenting on story about two lesbians who have been together 37 years suing a retirement village for rejecting them)
Karen:
Whenever one of these "couples" goes after a Christian business, keep this in mind: Two people with that much hate inside them is eventually going to turn it on each other. The domestic abuse rates of gays and lesbians is double that of normal couples. Their hatred for Christians may unite them for a time, but when that's all over, they're stuck with each other - two people full of anger, looking for a place to vent it.
Bob Johnson:
They have been together for 37 years.
Amos Moses:
so what ...... christianity has been here 2000+ years ......
Fandango:
It is testament to the strength of their relationship.
Amos Moses:
nope ......... it is testament to their narcissism .........
Fandango:
People don’t stay together for nearly 40 years because of narcissism. Come on.
Amos Moses:
that is all they have .......
Fandango:
No, I'm sorry, but do you even know what narcissism is? It comes from Greek mythology - Narcissus fell in love with his own image and the words "narcissism" and "narcissistic" refer to people who are self-absorbed, and I fail to see what two people in love who have committed themselves to each other (not themselves) for such a long and admirable period of time has whatsoever to do with narcissism.
Amos Moses:
"and I fail to see what two people in love who have committed themselves to each other (not themselves) for such a long and admirable period of time has whatsoever to do with narcissism."
because that is what they have .... and their "time together" is irrelevant ...... at least as far as this facility is concerned and this story ..... but no surprise that you "fail to see" ...........
Fandango:
That makes NO sense. Not a single shred of it. Narcissism is the very opposite of what two people who have given selflessly of themselves to each other have, especially for such an admirably long period of time. It's heartwarming and commendable and I would want it for anyone.
Amos Moses:
glad to see you are all warm and fuzzy for depravity and narcissism
Fandango:
In what POSSIBLE sense can the committed dedication and love between two people which lasts 37 years, in an age when people commonly marry and divorce within a YEAR, be called "narcissism"? How is it narcissistic? What about it is narcissistic? Does love mean nothing to you?
Amos Moses:
not love .... narcissism ...... what they have is a self-centered love of self and another who meets the needs of that narcissism .......... so not love ..... and their time together is not relevant .........
Fandango:
If you really believe that I have to say I feel very sorry for you. What you're saying is that they really do not love each other. And why would they stay together that many years if they didn't? If they were narcissists they wouldn't need other people.
What is love to you?
Amos Moses & Karen,
