The only way for a people to be truly free is to be free to pursue their life as they choose not how the government says they should choose. The endless regulations for every part of life is just another form of slavery, end the taxes to push people into moral choices you believe are right for them, and certainly get out of their religious beliefs. If a man or woman’s choice is to believe that abortion is wrong who is anybody else to say it is right? And yes this works in reverse also. No law should be created to curtail another’s beliefs in anything and if we were not so ardent purveyors of other peoples morality we would have a healthy economy also. The economy works just fine when open markets are allowed to be open without restraint. The current recession was caused by government influences on the market and then made worse by more government influence, let it be already. For the love of God let things work they way they are supposed to.
Congress is supposed to be the law maker of this nation not the President, he is actually supposed to be checking congresses work against the constitution and then the Supreme Court is to do the same to both, what has happened to this system that Congress has no power, a President threatens to use his pen and the Supreme Court agrees with the President. Yes, they have agreed by allowing the Affordable care act out of the bag. A single law that breaks at least for constitutional amendments, a single law that that a president had to lie to get passed, A Senate had to prevent others from reading and the Supreme Court has taken a cursory look at and now they are dealing with another minor ACA violation against religion.
Folks the law describes the beginning of life as the point when an egg is fertilized and yet we allow abortion, which at that point is murder. Now not only will the court allow a breach of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness idea they are going to make people who do believe in that idea pay for it. The ACA is an outrageous abuse of human dignity and civil liberties and we are allowing it to move forward under a President who believes in neither. He, as a Senator pushed for late term abortions in Illinois which the end result amounted to 50% of all African American babies to be killed by the state. How is this any different from eugenics or slavery? A single race sought out as being undeserving and forced to destroy itself at the hands of others.
Illinois does not allow the death penalty for convicted murderers but they allow it for children about to be born into poverty or unwanted homes, am I the only one here that sees the irony? A president who is African American the chief proponent for the law that is destroying his own race is also teaching how racism is wrong.
Now I am all for the States taking charge of the legal system again and getting the federal government out of those decisions but no laws can be made that violate basic natural laws or civil liberties of any human being, once one group is persecuted against, all groups are persecuted against. If gays and lesbians want marriage then they should be able to pursue it and if others do not agree they should be able to stay out of it and disagree, forcing a baker who is a Christian to make a cake for a gay couples marriage is just as bad as not allowing the couple to marry in the first place. Each side has a right to their opinion as long as that opinion does not result in harm to another, which abortion does, the child dies. We talk a lot about the rights of the women and how they can be affected and I understand this but I rarely hear anyone talk about the rights of the child, they have the same rights as the woman but they have no voice yet or strength yet to fight for their own existence. Who is the voice for them? If the law has decided that life begins at conception how is abortion allowed at all in any case it is just the murder of a defenseless human being and if the child were one day old wouldn’t we all look at the person who killed it as a monster. Yet since these children have not come out of a birth canal yet it is ok to kill them? I do not understand this logic at all and never will. I am not putting any religious filter on this debate at all and it still ends up wrong and the monster in charge is the man in charge of our country.
