If people would just chill the fuck out instead of reacting to some compulsion to interfere, the surviving bats just may yield mostly immune progeny.

White nose syndrome is also affecting Hipsters across Philadelphia..

Might have been smart to wear a breathing mask in there.

@nickrose83 how long will pedophilia be a crime? not too long ago, we thought being gay was a crime.

do over weight people need "fixing"? what about people w/ bulimia? these people have unhealthy lifestyles that don't hurt anyone else but cause their friends and family (people who care about them) to worry. people do bully them, and that isn't ok. they can do what they want w/ their body. but it would not be ok to teach kids that these lifestyles were healthy and normal.

@nickrose83 where I'm getting this" is where you decide what other people cannot do w/o doing it yourself.

@DRealfriknKeenan Post 2 - Homosexuals don't need "fixing", they are not abusing people who aren't old enough to make fully informed and consensual decisions about sex. They are expressing love in the same way as you or I would.

Paedophilia is a crime, for very good reason, being gay is not.

The only reason homosexuals need counselling is to help them get over the abuse and bullying they get from people telling them they need "curing".

@DRealfriknKeenan Jesus, no, I have never been gay, I never said I was, where are you getting this? I mentioned you were talking to a person (Tullidar) who said he was gay, and that you were ignoring what he was saying about it not being a choice, that is all.

I say can't because being homosexual is not an illness, no more than heterosexuality is. They are just 2 ends of a sexual spectrum that exists throughout nature in many species. It is in that sense a perfectly natural activity.

@mangaas no not like a woman's desire to vote or drive a car, but its good to know you're so "well informed" of other ways of life lol. but yea, principles like dressing modestly to oppose the desire to get what you want using cleavage. or to oppose having the desires of men decide what women are supposed to wear albiet through more subtle avenues like making life easier for women who show more skin.

ps i make time between the stoning and hanging to go on youtube.

@nickrose83 so you are a "cured" gay? you know that my friends who are ex-gay still feel the same way. you say the word "can't" a lot for someone who has never been in the position to try.

I agree w/ you on the whole pedo thing. in the dictionary, HS is being attracted to same sex and pedo is being attracted to children. neither are acting on those feelings, both are fixable (with counseling).
