Nobody won the groceries.  The surpising answer to what the most determining factor to being a sign-carrying protestor is...being an atheist. [[User:VargasMilan|VargasMilan]] ([[User talk:VargasMilan|talk]]) Saturday, 22:56, 9 May 2020 (EDT)

== I mentioned you in one of my essays ==

VargasMilan, I mentioned you in my essay: [[Essay: Atheists admit they are weird pansies]]

As far as a certain website, there appears to be an old guard vs. a new guard. I don't pretend to be an expert relating to that website, but it seems to be an guard that is modernist atheism/agnosticism vs. identity politics/SJW atheists/agnostics. 

Below is the quote:

The identity politics/SJWs faction is very insecure and knows its ideas cannot withstand scrutiny. It is like my feelings don't care about your facts. They hate the idea of debate.

[[File:Sarah Palin.jpg|thumbnail|right|180px|The moose hunting [[Sarah Palin]] has more machismo than effete [[liberal]]s/[[leftism|leftists]].]]

As far as Grammar Commie, for him it is just about ego and control. Ironically, if he wasn't so belligerent and censorious, I would have posted less at RW recently.  

I came to your wiki. It is time you man up and come to [[Conservapedia]]. If you follow the [[Conservapedia:Commandments|Conservapedia commandments]] and Conservapedia's [[Conservapedia:Editing article and talk pages|Manual of Style]], you should have no problems.

As far as RW, if it has a fixation on identity politics such as topics like homosexuality/feminism, the website will atrophy because the data shows that the Western World cares less and less about those topics as Google trends shows: [https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=feminism,homosexuality homosexuality and feminism Google trends].  The identity politics people are narcissists who want to focus on their sexuality/gender, etc.  But the world cares less and less on their narcissistic fixations.  

It is my hopes that if you spend more time with [[User: RobS]], [[User: Karajou]] and [[User: VargasMilan]] at Conservapedia so that some of their [[machismo]] may rub off on you.  One of the definitions of machismo is an "exhilarating sense of power or strength."[https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/machismo]

And as far those at RW who monger the idea that I am a "homophobe", I would point out the burden of proof is always upon the claimant. They may certainly wish I was a "homophobe", but they have yet to demonstrate it.  

People often become like they people they hang around. It is time you left RationalWiki before its too late.

As far as my interests in terms of editing, if Grammar Commie is going to continue to strip my posts so the data supporting the various positions that I am defending is taken out, then I will do what others are doing and not bother with the website. The website is bleeding web traffic because people prefer liberty to tyranny. And there are plenty of people that prefer reality over stale and unworkable ideas which are clinged to by people who fear debate.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 18:49, 24 May 2020 (EDT)

Remember, the moose hunting [[Sarah Palin]] has more machismo than effete [[liberal]]s/[[leftism|leftists]].   

:"Those at RW who monger the idea that I am a 'homophobe',.." It isn't funny of them.  Homosexuals aren't even threatened by those with an irrational fear of them, they're threatened by their own actions.

Sincerely,

:I can give at least one cause of homosexuality that isn't mentioned in the Conservapedia article:  Precocious sexuality.  Isolation from same sex parent and same sex authority figures.  Strong sexual desire + striking out with the opposite sex, settling for the same sex, getting adequate results and then remaining there out of growing habituation.  Distrust of authority's and authority figures' ability to set boundaries, like if they slipped up on their duties on an important occasion.

::Here is an interesting piece of information: In 1980, a study was published in the American Journal of Psychiatry and eleven men participated in this study. The aforementioned study stated that eleven homosexual men became heterosexuals "without explicit treatment and/or long-term psychotherapy" through their participation in a Pentecostal church.[https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7435713/][[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 19:54, 24 May 2020 (EDT)

:Yeah!  I actually saw the version without my name, and then you must have added it!  Thanks for including me!  I'm working right now on new salve called Atheone.  

:::1) I had an interest in SEO (search engine optimization which is getting high search engine rankings) at the time and Conservapedia's homosexuality article was an SEO experiment. For a novice, I did very well. My article ranked #2 for homosexuality for many years.  

:You just apply it on the bruises on your ego caused by finding out you don't know better than everyone else after all, and it attacks the pain and makes it go away.  The slogan is "When Conservative rubs it in, just rub some on."

:::2) At the time, Christian bakers, etc and other Christians were facing religious discrimination and there was some rabid homosexual activists. Maybe there still are a fair amount of rabid homosexual activists, but perhaps there are fewer of them now. I really don't know. I really don't see the issue much in the press as much and Google trends shows the public cares about the issue less and less. I expect there to be more and more political/economic instability as the world sheds off neo-liberalism and deals with the coronavirus pandemic and its after effects (plus deals with an aging population in the West).  So I think people are not going to be very interested in the topic of homosexuality.

::It is true that you become like the people you associate with.

:::3) In 2007, I saw homosexuality as a culture war issue in order to help Conservapedia get more web traffic and there was more interest in the topic than there is now. At the time, I had an interest in the [[Atheism vs. Christianity]] issue, but now my interest in that subject has waned. This is good timing at the [[atheist movement]] is now dead (see: [[Decline of the atheist movement]]).[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 20:09, 24 May 2020 (EDT)
