    You know the phrase "It was Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve" or "...not Madam and Eve."

    If you overhear someone saying that, or someone says it to you, what is your rebuttal to that (e.g. thoughtful response or quip)?

    Maybe something like they weren't black and white either I guess we should ban interracial marriage to or something following that logic.

    I just look at them with a blank look on my face. "Really? That's the best you've got." If they use that line, their minds are so closed, that it's useless even talking to them.

    Say, God also shunned divorce. Should we make that illegal too?

    Or you could show them the movie Adam and Steve, which, although it starts off kinda...weirdly XD... is basically a movie who's overall theme is God DID make Adam and Steve (because the two guys are named Adam and Steve and, ya know... nevermind DX)

    I don't consider that a serious argument at all. It's a silly rhetorical platitude that people with no real arguments try to pass as an argument.

    It is a nice rhyme, if you want to be anti-gay with a rhyme. Rhyming is pretty gay though so you lose.

    Although I guess I can see what they are saying because the first couple was a man and a women, so we should all model ourselves after that because it worked out perfectly for those two, if you don't read the entire story

    One of two things.
    Point out that the phrase 'Adam and Eve' is never actually said once in the bible, let along 'God Saying'.

    Or point out that I don't think Gay couples are bad, considering the first heterosexual couple kinda, partially, effectively, completely screwed over man (and woman, and man and man and woman and woman)kind

    I just ignore them. These people are so set in their ways that it isn't even worth my time to try to open their minds.

    They never existed, so it is irrelevant.

    Someone who uses that phrase is probably not worth arguing with, as this is pretty superficial in terms of apologetics lol...

    Yeah. I used to have an imaginary friend when I was growing up. I gave that up when I turned about six.

    Or

    Thought you might want to know... The sticky side of the liner goes against the PANTIES. *Gesture towards the restrooms* The bathroom is over there. I'm just saying.

    The Bible also said that we shouldn't eat bacon but I can tell from your fat ass you've been breaking that commandment repeatedly.

    (note: I'd never actually say that ever)
