I can appreciate the correction in your response however I am stating as a secularist that I do not appreciate religious doctrine being enforced as law. The health mandates are subjective. Here is my example: If an employer claims to be Christian and does not want to pay certain Health Benefits then what stops anyone from just saying they are Christian and wanting to get out of paying some health insurance taxes? I feel most the protest over this in monetary rather than faith based.
Also, many can make the claim that many laws are based on the Commandments. But the only one that did not make into a punishable is Adultery and if it was a crime more people would be in jail than the Prison Industrial Complex could handle. But defining "natural law" when it is an organic thing is wrong. "Natural law" would be survival of the fittest and the strong taking what they want. As a religious person you should stand against such a "Natural Law."

You believe in fairy tales as fact and yet again revert to name calling because you have nothing else to contribute. The O.T. to you Christians, but it is the Torah first and foremost. And even the most staunch Rabbi does not take the Genesis story as fact, but parable. Do you believe in Briar Rabbit or the Ant and the Grasshopper stories as fact?
EDIT:
Also it is time to change the BEDPAN this one is over flowing with excrement again...
How many Divorced and Remarried Catholics attend your church? How does that work with your "basic unit of society?" And isn't the "basic unit" citizens in general?
I was with you until the 4th paragraph. What does the Keystone Pipeline and Iran negotiations have to do with gun bans? So we can not buy certain types of guns, but we can still buy other guns that are at least semi-auto.
And as a question are most collectible (antique) guns plugged or have the firing mechanism removed anyway?
Is the author attempting to say that accepting others of an alternative lifestyle will lead to the acceptance of Sharia? Because those two things typically stay at opposite ends of the social spectrum. Two consenting adults can do what they want in the privacy of their home. Unlike Sharia where a woman can not go into public without an escort for fear of being beaten to death.
You have put together a very poor argument and why it is ok for you to say I do not accept your rationale.
What are you talking about Bedpan? My article is relevant and its based on a comment made by a Senator's wife. Try harder forum troll.
I am a registered Republican. Just because I do not have neo con or religious doctrine as my guiding ethos does not make me less interested in government staying out of the personal lives of citizens. True conservatives would vote No.
