Parents should be required to get licensed/certified before having children, yes or no? by okomotoin AskReddit

In fact, even suggesting this I would suggest you shouldn't be allowed to reproduce you jackass.

I'm surprised people get so defensive about this (ok, I guess I'm not). Its just a fun hypothetical. No body is trying to chop off your balls just yet...

We've tried that, didn't work. Actually they're still practicing it (as volunteer programs) in some places. They basically pay you money to not have kids (via sterilization).

I really don't understand the reason to be nice to people like this. This isn't the fucking 1800s. There is absolutely no reason to waddle along behind these backward thinking idiots and try to encourage them to change, giving them a cookie every time they say something that isn't completely bat shit insane. Seriously, why? They're offending me, my friends, my family, but they deserve some level of respect for being mildly accepting in this one example? I really fail to follow this kind of logic.

If a racist came up to me tomorrow and said "you know what, I think I might hate black people a little less today", I'm not going to congratulate the guy. I'm going to tell him to go fuck himself. A religious person telling me that they accept gay marriage, while at the same time disagreeing with the "homosexual lifestyle", is basically the same thing.

Because it references the original post. I realize I could've done a better job of not insinuating that they're crazy extremists, but too late now.

I always forget how hung up on a headline reddit can get. I honestly do not think the people in that discussion are extremists.

It's not like the Christians came to reddit and said "hey look gays! we kinda accept you!"

Thats basically what happened.

They were just having a discussion between themselves on an open forum and someone saw it.

From my understanding, the OP was the person that wrote and posted it.

I took offense to seeing the original post as the number one link on reddit yesterday. I took offense to some chrisitans trying to tout themselves as something they're not, SIMPLY because they're having a civil discussion about gay rights (while at the same time discussing the ways in which they can save them from their sins). It was completely ridiculous.

Reddit's common sense population wouldn't downvote rational arguments just because they disagree with them. And they certainly wouldn't rummage through my profile to downvote anything I've ever said.

Looking over some of the messages I've received, and the downvote train that seems to have passed through my profile, it would seem that I have upset reddit's anti-gay and/or Christian population.

Equality for all mankind doesn't really lend its self to the possibility of a middle ground, does it? '

EDIT: -12, I guess it does then! You have surely convinced me.

Its not having something in common with them, its having the ability to communicate with them easily (like this self post).

My website's content has never been rehosted on imgur. This has nothing to do with me.

I'm glad parents are still allowing their children onto the Internet at such an early age.

I think reddit needs to come up with an option box for a mirror so that the original link takes people to the site

Great idea.

Yes, in this case, it would be a self post. Thats the compromise part, no karma. But this isn't my idea, and it's still not entirely fair to the original creator.

Aside from the other two, you shouldn't be hotlinking.

Well I imagine the the text field would have two links, the original and an imgur backup. At that point its 50/50 on who clicks what. But you're right, I was just being nice earlier.

Not the comments, the text field.
