The hypocrisy of the schizophrenic self-styled religious right has roots that run deep. In the monotheistic reality tunnel, the Godhead is the State. It has always been this way. The Lord sits upon his throne and is benevolent enough to allow his flock to feed from his scraps and lick the remnants of his last meal from his pretty white beard.

Those unborn babies are no more or less divine than the homeless man we walked past and sneered at, or the Iraqi family reduced to protoplasm for your blessed God's enjoyment and material gain.

This issue is about the desire to legislate a morality. Such a need is indicative of weakness and impotence, not strength. The irony here being that the "right" side of the false dialectic/deftly-crafted social control mechanism/political spectrum seeks to force someone else to follow a code that they believe in. This is supposedly a tactic of the "left" side of the aforementioned false dialectic. Both sides attempting to rip each others' eyes out over who should die next.
No it isn't just about morality -- it is about a life.

Who determines when we can take a life? Apparently you believe the government does. I don't believe that. If you lived in Germany during WWII you would be killing Jews! I know you would because you don't believe in life. The government said it was fine, so it was fine. If you lived in the US - South during slavery -- you would have slaves and would have treated them like animals -- I know because you don't believe in life.

Your thought process is locked into SELF gratification and doing what man wants to do.

Let's face one fact -- IF their is a God he darned sure doesn't respect man or man's ways. Why should he? He might let us have plenty of rope to hang ourselves, but he knows that we don't have any control over him -- but he does over us. Think about it.
