Yay Meara! I need to take some lessons from you. Of course, going to bars and getting out there might help things. Alas, not a fan of bars.
Also, you want everyone to be the same as you? It's kinnda the same as wanting everyone to be robots, no?
Not have the same thoughts, certainly not. But at least not throw into a debate about same sex marriage things like "were would it stop, today they are marring their gender, tomorrow they are marrying their pet dog or cat, and that is just wrong". WHAT? And yes, I have had that come up in a debate. Sad to say, it was family members too. Not robots, just... hell I dunno. I just woke up.
I'm gonna stop tapping, and go off to work now.
Barb, hope your jaunt outside was a pleasant experience! Yay for healing!!

Alas, it sounds like you've been engaged in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.
Mind you, the logic fail is almost like some kind of party game.
"Today they are eating bacon sandwiches, tomorrow they are eating cars!"
"Today they are driving cars, tomorrow they are driving space ships made of cheese!"
"Today they are wearing shoes, tomorrow they are strapping poodles to the bottom of their feet!"
"Today they are washing their hair, tomorrow they are washing the trees in the park!"
Non-sequiteur-alicious!

"Today they allow opposite sex couples to marry, tomorrow same sex couples will want to marry!"

I have had this argument, too. With my boss. She asked me if I thought it would be OK if I married my cat. I was sort of speechless, because how do you argue with that. Granted, she threw it in when I said I wasn't actually against polygamous or polygynous or poly whatever marriage as long as everyone was a consenting adult not being taken advantage of.

Hey, if your cat is of legal age and able to consent...
Is that in cat years or people years?
So, out of nowhere, my password into eBay was changed. How afraid should I be. Also, has anyone logging into paypal recently had to verify bank account or credit card information and then change the pasword?

Pretty afraid.
I had a not-complex-enough eBay password, and someone guessed it and got into my account. Luckily, eBay detected potentially fraudulent activity and put a hold on my account.
I ended up changing my paypal password, but I don't remember if that was compromised as well.
It's been the same password for ten years.
Aims, my ebay account was hacked, I ended up having to cancel it. I would contact ebay/paypal immediately, especially if the passwords are the same or similar.
I'd be concerned, Aims. A normal protocol if they legitimately needed you to change it would be to freeze it, then have you verify your identity (not! your financial details) and change it yourself, not to change it for you and tell you after the fact.
