| Trolling has corrupted this thread. If it continues, offenders will be banned. Would you explain how, and in what way? "Trolling" is a vague and unhelpful description for understanding how to avoid being an offender. Clarification, if you please. :| Oh wait, my bad. I see how, now. Never ... |

"Trolling" is a vague and unhelpful description for understanding how to avoid being an offender.

I don't accept most people, period.
But I still go out of my way to show them love.
I love those I don't accept.  |

| The worst part is that people don't realize how they treat us, especially SJWs who claim they're accepting of all differences, yet shun autistic people like we're nobodies. I hate their hypocrisy, and I hate the fact that they demand we always conform to their standards and they refuse to meet us h... |

| My view is that any credible call to violence against specific groups because of their ethnicity, religion, etc. should definitely be a criminal offense. I don't think that a merely offensive view, such as a pastor saying that homosexuality is a sin, or saying that Islam promotes violence in its mo... |

| Only God knows the true nature of God and we can only hypothesize. You are only half correct. God DOES know the true nature of God. But we CAN do more than hypothesize. We can go before God in prayer, and find out straight from the source Himself. The author of a book is the best reliable interpret... |

| I would love to beat the everloving s**t out of Bannon. Curb stomp his f*****g ass. Then you are no better than him. There is some need of discipline in the life of every child. Even autistic children will at some point need some hands on discipline from a loving parent. Within reason, of course. B... |

| Yeah, I know what you mean. My home planet was wiped out by a quasar impulse emission, approximately 6,251 years from now. Earth is a nice substitute, except since it has an atmosphere, it causes my frail metallic body to corrode. Especially in coastal regions. Really, it's not such a bad planet. Ve... |

| If you want other people to believe your god exists, yes it is. If not, then it is your own business and there is no need for you to prove anything. Not really. Plenty of people believe in my God regardless of whether or not I try to prove it. Furthermore, nobody had to prove God to me with their o... |

Believing everything just happened to come about from some random explosion from nothingness, and created ordered systems and planets from all that... |
