Do you think that gays deserve the death penalty?

Don't you think that this is a sick and crazy view?

Don't you think that someone who believes this is a sick individual?

  Notice the lengthy pause after a day of rapid fire responses.

They're trying to figure out what to say. Will it be:

a. "Joe [the logician] is illogical." 

b. "Joe's been eating backed goods."

c. "I suppose Joe wants to punch me in the nose now."

d. "We don't have to believe you since you, Joe, are not a Christian. 
At least not in my [narrow] book"

Or:

e. "Look, I already told you that I sin every day!"

Please cast your votes!

No problem, Joe. As they say in New York . . . Fuhgeddaboutit. I have. Besides, you have very nicely "outed" the Arnold-wannabe. Still the question remains: Who is playing Arnold today? Tom
