in The Sad Irony of Who Voted For Prop 8 on dmiessler.com | grep understanding

The true irony is that for the first time (that I am aware of anyway) a state constitution is being used to take away rights rather than to preserve them...


Truly sad commentary on today's religious zealots.

Fallguy... um, okay, Fallgirl... The real issue was not her but Mcain's decision making for picking her.

PS: I am not conservative or liberal, just tired of rule by the religious of the right which drove me from the republican party to going independent.


I have read the document a time or two, and I recall one of the FIRST things about "separation of church and state", not the theocracy that the religious right wants to corrupt the republican party into.


If I have to choose, (apparently I do, by Tuesday) between a quasi-socialism and full blown theocracy and holier than thou morality police (SEE: "mutaween"), then I will not stand by and let the religious extremist hijack the country.

Did you miss the part about "Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's"?


If you finish the verse it continues to make a clear distinction between money to the church and money to the government "Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God what is God's."


Its not like you get to decide where your church sends your money, which is the Religulous's greatest argument against using taxes through government to help people.


BTW:


Romans 13:1-7 makes it clear that we are to submit ourselves to the government. The only instance in which we are allowed to disobey the government is when it tells us to do something the Bible forbids. The Bible does not forbid paying taxes. In fact, the Bible encourages us to pay taxes. Therefore, we must submit to God and His Word - and pay our taxes.


Romans 13:2 "Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."


In full agreement, the Apostle Paul taught, "This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing. Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor" (Romans 13:6-7).

in IQ is Real, and it Matters [Part II] on dmiessler.com | grep understanding

I think it would be interesting to show the map of average IQ by state that you posted a while back and then show the map of historical preference to political party by state side by side or as an overlay...

in Our Government Isn’t Failing Us. Our People Are. on dmiessler.com | grep understanding

Use IQ tests certify if someone will be allowed to have children. Having children is the only thing that doesn't have any competency standards on a area that poor standards that has a huge negative effect on society at large.


Maybe less kids will get driven into lakes, or infants dropped in backyard septic systems, or cooked in microwaves by insane or strung out parents. If were lucky ir might actually eliminate the cable tv for parents style of parenting.

in Racism Strikes Again: Hispanics and Old People Screw The Country by Refusing to Vote For Obama on dmiessler.com | grep understanding

It may come down to Hilary attempting to get the DNC to seat Michigan and Florida Delegates.


Imagine the cries of racism if that happens and he loses because of it, especially if he has the popular vote majority and loses by delegate count (deja vu?)
