What they mean by this, or course, is that while all these "good Christian folk" are running around concerned that every fertilized egg has a chance to be born, breathe, cry, etc., let's not forget about the little children who already exist and need education, food, healthcare, etc. <BR/><BR/>Catholics come down about 50% in each political party, because a) Few American Catholics are going to agree with the Church on absolutely everything and b) neither political party agrees with the Catholic Church on everything, either. E.G. Republicans may, as a party, be more strongly pro-life, but they're also pro-death penalty.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08625950040870228573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15040772.post-52758214192314021022008-07-22T15:30:00.000-07:002008-07-22T15:30:00.000-07:00So I take it you feel strongly about a woman's rig...So I take it you feel strongly about a woman's right to choose.Dr. Monkey Von Monkersteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14370062692837972451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15040772.post-30119451159858918412008-07-22T07:14:00.000-07:002008-07-22T07:14:00.000-07:00Here in Malawi, the line of separation between chu...Here in Malawi, the line of separation between church and state is greatly blurred. The government and press speak as though the population is Christian although there is a large minority of Muslims. Although there is freedom to practice your own religion, there is no public recognition that their country is multi-cultural.Dad Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15844231409201782748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15040772.post-25178051883790272732008-07-21T09:36:00.000-07:002008-07-21T09:36:00.000-07:00Spooney: You're just trying to rile me up with tha...Spooney: You're just trying to rile me up with that elementary possessive/plural mistake, aren't you? Well, it won't work.<BR/><BR/>SkyDad: Thanks, I guess idiots inspire me.<BR/><BR/>Bubs: I don't know, Bubs. It says right there in our constitution that we must separate church and state, and we still manage to suffer plenty at the hands of the god people. Personally, I think individual spiritually is a fine thing, but organized religion is an evil institution that can never, ultimately, benefit mankind. <BR/><BR/>Oops. Just buried the lede, and in the comments section, no less.<BR/><BR/>Kirby: Yeah, what the fuck, right? I never will understand the obsession with the recover of bodies.<BR/><BR/>Randy: Oh my god, you don't honestly believe that the Catholic church discriminates against women!<BR/><BR/>Matt: Well, the initiative itself states that life begins at conception, so I guess I was taking that as read. My point is that while people like to get up on their high horses about the issue of abortion, what they don't always see is that the issue is not one of absolutes, but one of degrees. For instance, most anti-abortion people will tell you that a zygote is equal to an infant, but if you toss at them the old burning fertility clinic conundrum, they frequently will not admit to what I think is their true answer. The conundrum: a fertility clinic is burning. You can save one four-year-old, or a dish containing 10 zygotes. Which do you choose?<BR/><BR/>GKL: Well, it runs in the family.vikkitikkitavihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01501311175482530001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15040772.post-49685090689620223612008-07-21T09:04:00.000-07:002008-07-21T09:04:00.000-07:00Drinking?

Not that your isn't great but she brings up another line of logic. Her belief is that the ultimate goal is not really to ban birth control per se. The goal is that by getting this passed they are, in effect, saying that life begins at conception.<BR/><BR/>If life begins at conception that gives them the opportunity to challenge Roe.<BR/><BR/>I don't live in CO but I would hope that common sense breaks out among the populace and they vote this out overwhelmingly.<BR/><BR/>Peace.<BR/><BR/>Matt<BR/>www.idealcrap.com<BR/><BR/>p.s.
