...marriage,evolution as fact, atheism as a better? alternative than religion, and the concept of human-caused global warming?
I just wonder how many libs actually fit the mold that Republicans have cast for them.
Abortion--I am pro-choice up to the viability stage UNLESS the life of the mother is at risk.
Gay Marriage--I am for gay marriage, but I don't care what it is called, as long as it allows for the same basic rights.
evolution--its a fact.
Atheism--I don't believe in any god/s....but YOUR right to do so is fine with me....and my choice isn't any better than your choice. All of my liberal family members believe in a Christian god, and we come from a long line of ministers.
Global Warming- not necessarily.
I support every-ones right to make PERSONAL choices. And suffer the consequences if they make a wrong choice. Whether they pay the consequence here or in the hereafter is their own business.
I support abortion on demand in the first trimester, after that only if the mother's health is in jeopardy.
Who other ppl marry is none of my concern.
Evolution is a proven fact.
Humans are not the sole cause of global warming and I do realize warm and cold spells occur naturally. But I believe that ppl have had an impact on the climate.
Abortion: You can't make it illegal, it is not preferred by any human being, but making it illegal doesn't stop it. Murder is illegal, too, yet it still happens. Sex education and prevention are the keys to limiting abortion.
Gay Marriage: The state has no rights to interfere in one's personal life. The state should recognize ALL marriages as civil unions and two consenting adults and their families and friends can recognize the 'marriage.'
Man made global warming: Our atmosphere is a delicate balance of chemical reactions, to say that disrupting that balance with an overload of one chemical constitution won't affect it is a bit feeble minded.
Evolution: Scientifically supported. I have no problem with both creationism and evolution being taught in schools, just not one or the other exclusively.
Atheism: There are many religious liberals. Atheism is funny to me. How can you base a belief system on the disbelief of other systems. It seems to nullify itself.
Both parties have stereotypes. I don't consider stereotypes when making decisions. Our country is polarized and lacking of civil discourse merely for the benefit of political parties. Its time all Americans say we will not be painted into a corner or polarized.
Well lets see, I'm a liberal Dem, an Irish Catholic, pro-choice, pro-marry anyone that you want, and believe God put us here...
I guess you have to decide what you think.
All I know is, I could care less what anyone thinks about my views.
I don't agree with your term of 'abortion on demand' I actually wish there were less abortions in the world, but I do think it should be an individual choice.
And atheism is a choice, just like being a Christian is a choice. Neither is better per say, it's just what works for you.
