The translation of this is: law = morality The logic goes like this: it's the federal government's role is to make laws to teach morality. You see, you are too dumb and don't know what's good for you - only government does. So kneel and be dominated sinner! Normally people who think this way are called theocrats, but somehow this perversion of morality has become acceptable to right-wing Republicans. And who's morality do they think government should impose? Obviously Christian morality. But what does that, in fact, teach our kids? That government's role is to persecute others based on an arbitrary view of morality. If they don't do what you do, persecute them. Make their private behavior illegal. Subjugate them. Government knows best. I sure as hell don't want my kids thinking government knows best! Government's role is to protect liberty and guarantee personal freedoms - not take it away! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:180655 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
