@spinerau fuck off with your backward thoughts spaniardo

Haavisto's life style is not according to God's original plan. Hopefully he will not win the election! However acceptable a homosexual lifestyle is in the world's eyes, it is not acceptable to God.Homosexuals will not inherit the Kingdom of God They need to repent of their sin ( as we all need to do) & turn to Jesus God's Son for forgiveness.Only Jesus can save any of us!

That gay man didnt win

[antinazicholos5]

well people in bolivia n peru are more ignorant. uruguayans and chileans are more educated but also more perverts. I think educated people is more "open minded" about sex, thats why europeans have gay presidents.

[brndnrckn]

@antinazicholos5 yes well uruguay, argentina and chile are about 80% europeans, where as the other latin american countries are mainly natives. but the usa, canada, australia and new zealand are also of european ancestry, but they are not european countries. all these countries are still culturally european or "western" though. and you may think europeans are perverts, but i think they are just open-minded. i mean sex is natural, we are supposed to do it. no point restricting it.

[antinazicholos5]

@brndnrckn actually argentinians and uruguayans says they are not latinos but europeans. There is a famous uruguayan song on YouTube "No somos latinos" (We are not latin). I think europeans are sexually perverts, but they are good in business and technology

[antinazicholos5]

being PERVERT and president should be normal, cause PERVERTS have rights too. I dont care if a PERVERT is elected president

@Shadowlit001 ye, these Americans are crazy

they think praying is good, and anal sex is gross LOL

[kevinxavier777]

why do old gay men always have young boyfriends?

[freedom1234573]

@TheBrettBretterson YUP!!!

[brndnrckn]

the australians greens party in run by an openly gay man, and he received 17% of australian votes last election. i also think canada, argentina and uruguay would elect an openly gay prime minister. but these are probably the only countries outside europe that would.
