[quote:aa5ca]And your pompous assertion that the Government has every right to regulate the personal lives and reproductive lives of it's citizens is a mockery of what it means to have your own say in your own business.[/quote:aa5ca]

Wah - didnt say that, but if its the only way for you make your point - go right ahead. Big Bad Government has ALWAYS been involved in your life, from telling you what you can/cannot eat/drink, who you can/cannot be involved with, where you can/cannot go. Your lame tract that whatever BB says/does is wrong - is pedantry at its worst.

[quote:aa5ca] don't need you or some evangelical telling my wife/girlfriend whomever that she can't have an abortion because it's not kosher in someone else's view, or that two gays can't get married because it disrupts your Religious beliefs or that assisted suicide is wrong because people shouldn't have a say in their own death but you have every right to decide the fate of an individual because you hold the illusion of moral superiority.[/quote:aa5ca]

Again - pedantric response to the argument. Who says every opposition to abortion, gay marraige, and assisted suicide is one based in religion? I need to be a religious nut to think a fetus is a living thing imbued with "life". I need to be a religious nut to think that I shouldnt have to have pay for societies "tolerance" and "acceptance of gays? I need to be a religious nut to think that leglislating a "pain threshold" for terminal patients is a slippery slope we dont want to go down?

Get the hell out of your local JC and the campus SOCIALIST CLUB and get into the real world.
