Anybody who thinks that treating an unborn child as something other then a human being is sick. People who make the argument that they can do what ever they want with their bodies forget that the child is not their body but belongs to the child. I agree it is unfair that man don’t have to worry about this issue but then again fife is not fair and never has been.

Well thats a great job you have done, sometimes even elder people becomes so stubborn to decide on anything where a small child can just do it without rising any big issues. They need to teached lessons from small children i suppose.

Thats good job because even elders are becoming so stubborn to decide on any thing where a small child can do that easily without any rising any big issues. That was good this was decided.

THANK YOU for explaining his position in that group. When I saw from where he was, I responded, “Huh?” (See Scooby Doo looking at something he doesn’t understand.) I appreciate that.

Very interesting that he teaches a class with Cornel (who was one of my seminary professors at Union). I bet THAT’S some class…

I agree, nomnomnom, so many great comments.

It is an excellent observation that we all pay for things we might detest.

Like I said, I can understand that these people are opposed to it, but it is legal, so there’s that.

You’d think these clergy types would have more important things to worry abt than ay marriage, too, right? Like the economy, domestic violence (I guarantee you, they have people dealing with it in their churches), etc.

Excellent points, y’all – really!

Looking at the world’s future demographics, I think it’s crucial that everything be done to encourage the traditional family.

That means having marriage be about the raising of childern, not validating one’s relationships.

That means not encouraging (and not demonizing) same-sex relationships in the youth.

And i say that as a gay guy, if everyone was gay there would be no future.

I think there has to be standards and that the standard be upheld.. even if it’s an almost impossible ideal.

I support what those religious people are doing… for not only is it immoral to compel people to participate in the slaughter of innocent unborn life via paying for it. but many hospitals are run by religious organizations and the danger is that the govt would compel them to perform abortions.

50% of the population cannot be thrown overboard. There can be no compromise here. Reproductive health is HEALTH.

As a man, i promise you, if we had babies there would be no Stupak amendment.

I’m speechless. They want to use evidence-based guidelines, only to ration our proven healthcare, but they’re going to take our tax money and NOT insist on any efficacy-based evidence for PRAYER TREATMENT????

wow, so many great comments, I am not going to even bother. I don’t think I could get a post through without getting caught in the Spaminator anyway.

” the clergy also have taken a stand against securing the border and enforcing existing immigration law–”

That’s a pretty broad inclusive generalization you make here — I think you should be more specific as to which clergy.

With all the closet gay clergy, what’s their beef? Self loathing? Fund raising and PR via a hot button issue? Both, I think.

I support “choice” plus limiting unwanted pregnancies via age appropriate sex education, same sex marriage and the separation of church and state. But I also realize these are wedge issues that fatten the coffers of religious institutions, organizations, politicians and media gasbags like Hannity and Olbermann.

I’m really very tired of self-serving hypocrites destroying the fabric of society.

Where are the jobs promised by the stimulus?
Where is the decision on Afghanistan?
