***I feel Very Very strongly about this, my remarks are Not directed towards Any of the wonderful people here on our forum, or ment to be taken as a personal insult, I am using strong words to make my point, and not to hurt anyone- as as much as I rant about religions and such- It's only because they try to impose their views on Me- I wish all to live and let live, and I am very close with both christians and jews, we all have a wonderful time enjoying the others religious views- So please please note this when you are reading this***
Although I rarely agree with her, Ashley and Bingo have a Very true point-
We are no better then '1984' and other such doomsday novels if we let a fear mongering society direct us to what we can and cannot do because it will mean 'safety'.
I personally am more republican minded fiscally, as my family really is a group of capitalist pigs, (as we fondly say) and I feel that many of the welfare/social programs were ment to be a stop-gap Only after the great depression, not the mess it is now-
However I have Very strong feelings on civil rights
(That are Erroding because we need to be Safe, and 'God' says that people who love each other Must be of this and that type and are therefore ineligable for tax benifits of marrige! Kill me!) ,
and women's right to choose,
(If I see just One more "right to life" plate I will puke- our planet is overpopulated as it is- heck Sterallize Everyone and make them prove they are mentally, fiscally, and physically able to have and care for kids, I see to many in our hospitals having kids and we Pay them to! These kids are set to fail from the get go, or worse!! I Love kids, but it's My body, and with in reasonable limits, My choice, and no Man or pastor etc etc gets to tell me otherwise!)
I also feel that religion has NO place in the Labs or in scientific reserach! There is So much to discover and learn that could help Thousands, and as far as I am concerned, whatever Is out there gave us the brains to figure it out, we Should! If the darn republicans could stop yammering for all the fundies vote because jesus loves that candidate the best, I would take them more seriously.
So in the end- it's really non of the above for me- But I will most likely vote Republican as I feel the fiscal policy weighs in during our current economy, and McCain has shown some leniency towards my personal issues, despite denying it to protect his extreme religious votes-
