    What effect do the people of a certain religion have?

    In your switch in churches, did you even consider the possibility that no church is true? Just wondering. As for me, I don't have a faith experience/testimony. I have grown up in an area where Fundamentalist Baptists and Southern Baptists are the norm. The idea that gays are any better than...

    Abortion logic

    Opposition to Roe is not the property of the "pro-life" crowd. I am staunchly pro-choice, but recognize that abortion rights must be procured through the normal democratic process. Forcing the states to legalize abortion is no different than forcing the states to abolish slavery. It is wrong and...

    Circumcision ritual under fire in New York due to risk of herpes infection

    Extremely rare practice. Making it illegal won't change anything, as American law isn't respected in these communities.

    Why the pro-choice "Rights of Woman vs. Rights of ZEF" argument is a fallacy [W: 43]

    re: Why the pro-choice "Rights of Woman vs. Rights of ZEF" argument is a fallacy [W: 43] Female fetuses =/= little girls. Abortion =/= infanticide. Your argument = defeated.

    Abortion logic

    I'm a Conservative who is very pro-abortion, but not for the reason you cite. "less children being born who will inevitably become slaves to the left" Isn't that racist? because you obviously mean African-Americans and Hispanic-Americans.

    Abortion Statistics and Thoughts [W:59]

    This is good news. As it means that a third of abortions could be prevented with charity/helping financially.

    What minor party has the best chance to become a major party?

    I think expansion of online registration - especially with facebook will help get everyone signed up, so that at least they can vote if they want to. That should raise the overall minor party vote from 3% in Presidential races to 30% by default. There are enough Americans pissed off with both...

    "White Heritage"

    I don't belong to any American culture. In fact I actively oppose said culture. I identify as an American only because I was physically born in the US. I would feel the same in Canada or even Mexico. I have never used the word "white" to describe myself. The correct term is pigment-challenged...

    Why soo much hatred of Barack Obama?

    He is not black, he is biracial/mixed/mulatto. You don't refer to chocolate chip vanilla ice cream as chocolate ice cream. Same logic applies. His father may have been raised a Muslim, but he comes from a long line of Christians. His father also was an Atheist since the time Obama was young...

    The Arab Spring Is Over

    Libya hasn't actually elected its government. It only elected a temporary Assembly. It's no surprise then that it would mostly support the current regime continuing. I imagine in the next two elections, that the Islamists will have much better chances at a majority.

    "White Heritage"

    White Heritage and the movement behind it, should be described however one describes the Nazis, the KKK or the Southern Democrats of yesteryear.

    Report: US Christian right presses anti-gay policies in Africa

    They eat the poo-poo, why wouldn't they ban them?

    Will a New Political Star Emerge Out of the Conventions this Year?

    Since when? I mean seriously. When was Obama ever a star prior to running for President?

    What minor party has the best chance to become a major party?

    "Fighting for Faith..." So that means Atheists would not be allowed to join AFP?

    Increasing number of disabled Israeli children sue for not being aborted

    Has it occurred to you that those two (being aborted before your life begins) and killing yourself are radically different things? For one thing, the former involves an action taken without your consent (you don't have any, you're not even a "you" yet) and the latter involves an intentional...
