[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We get it. You people hate Christians especially Catholics. In your ideal world you would have a country with no Christianity. This is sort of typical of the modern liberal, profess to be very tolerant and open minded except about things they disagree with. So go ahead and enjoy putting people of faith down and trying to force your view of morality down our throats while screaming tolerance. [/quote]

You can call me a liberal, a libertarian, a progressive, or anything else you want, but let me be blunt:  I think religious "laws", be they Christian, Muslim, Jewish or Buddhist, are irrational bulls--t.  I believe our laws should be based on sound science, experience, maturity and logic and should be rationally directed to accomplish policies that improve the lives of every man, woman and child in this country, both today and in the future, in the least burdensome manner that can be accomplished.  To me, restricting safe medical abortions will increase the number of unsafe, wire-hanger abortions in backrooms and alleys; restricting contraceptives and teaching abstinence-only sex-ed will result in unwanted children who cannot be adequately cared for.  If you think abortions and contraceptives should be prohibited, because you are Catholic, Muslim, or Martian, you're an idiot.  Am I being intolerant?  I HOPE so, because I am tired of suffering fools and pandering to people whose minds are in the dark ages.  Now, I know I have to "respect" your choices, and someday, when your daughter is in college and gets knocked up and has to drop out of school to care for the baby and ends up on food stamps because the only job she can get is on that pathetically inadequate minimum wage and she moves back to your home where your are living comfortably on your Social Security and your Medicare on your nice safe tree-lined street that my taxes paid for, on that day I will not complain that your daughter's and grandchild's futures were ruined or that you are all basically living off the sweat of my daily labor, but don't ever imagine that you made the right choices by following your religion's teachings or that you "deserve" my tolerance.
