    For Christian fundamentalists and social conservatives, that’s not good enough.

    Yeah. :(

    They are completely against common sense and what this country was founded for, instead to force their beliefs on others.

    Fuck you asshole....Self-righteous dickheads like you have absolutely no compunctions against forcing your view on what constitutes "morality" upon me.

    What if I believe that stealing my money to feather the nests of people who've done nothing to earn it is wrong?

    Yeah... I can suck a big fat chili dog and deal with it.

    How is telling you to do what you believe in forcing morality on you?

    Just don't force your ideologies on others...



    Thats what this country was founded for.

    Telling me that I MUST do what you want me to or that I cannot do the things you do not want me doing IS forcing your morality on me. The left is just as suspect in this as the right and you are well aware of it. The difference is that you agree with the left and disagree with the right. Those of us that are honest with ourselves disagree with both parties when they try and shove that crap down our throats. It is called not being a hack.

    I know.

    But I'm not forcing you. Nobody is.
    you are free to make your decisions and such.

    Both sides have their own ideologies and need to focus on the people and the laws/rights of this country.



    You don't like something? Don't do it.
    Don't go in politics and try to deny anyone the right/privilege to something because of your beliefs. Our country was founded for freedom, not influence.

    Fine... I don't want to pay for you to murder unborn children. Can I opt out of that with ObamaCare? No.

    I don't want to pay for your birth control. Can I opt out of that with ObamaCare? No.

    I define marriage as 'one man and one woman' - that is the Catholic view - for the procreation of children - can gays produce a child without a third party? No. I'm totally up for gays having the same rights and responsibilities of 'marriage' but it ain't marriage. Not according to my definition of the word.

    I am comfortable with creationism not being taught in schools.

    And.... we have Freedom OF religion, not Freedom FROM religion in this country. If the symbols of my faith offend you, tough.
