The difference between me and all the "sensitive" and "tolerant" people is that I don't go around calling other people ignorant, hateful and racist.

In a way doesn't this make me more tolerant?

Hopefully somebody with a bit of intelligence will get what I'm trying to ask.
Let's go back in time to when we were evolving. We must have been able to communicate in some way. When we developed the ability to communicate with words, would we have been able to describe past communications or experiences? Could this be how we developed the idea of Gods or supernatural activities?
It's quite hard to describe what I'm trying to put across but bear with me please. Let's say that a volcanic eruption was witnessed by one generation (before language) this was communicated down a few generations (how? I don't know). When language started to develop, would this perhaps have been described as "Great fire from the sky" or something to that effect? and as vocabulary increased so did elaboration of the observation of said volcano, this in turn gets mis interpretted further down the line as some unworldly phenomena? as it's always human nature to try and personify something.

The most affluent appearing people are the worst offenders. They tend to "talk down" to clerks, cashiers, etc..., they are rude and demanding and say inappropriate things like "you have nothing better to do". They don't even have the common sense to put down their cell phone long enough to speak with the person in front of them, then proceed to curse out the service member for ignoring them. Why is this? Do they not realize that without retail employees that they would be hungry and naked?

Why do I enjoy so much posting outrageously untruthful stories here to see what the gullible faithful will say?

Okay, i haven't had much contact with you guys, i only once went to a gay club with a friend...one thing though struck me, there is some sort of unity and openness which i don't normally see in other places, i truly admire that but I am wondering what causes it, is it becoz, you guys are sort of persecuted or seen as the other which stick thus stick you together?? I am sorry if this sounds weird or wrong but you are different in a sense, do u discover when you are a teenager or later that you are gay or lesbian??
