My dad is watching the Republican debate downstairs. And while I do my best to keep an open mind, and I do have to acknowledge that some of them make valid points about foreign policy and economy and such, some things about personal liberties that these people are saying is infuriating me.
1) Gay Rights: Okay, seriously? I read this excellent facebook post of a friend of mine, who is bisexual and a Christian, and she made a great point. Nowhere in the Bible does it explicitly say that God hates homosexuality. It doesn't even remotley describe it. In fact, the original Hebrew said prostitutes.
2) Abortion: If you think the government should stay out of everybody's lives...shouldn't they stay out of a woman's decision to have an abortion?
3) Seperation of Church and State: NOT EVERBODY IS CHRISTIAN. You could offend some people by praying in school or openly engaging in religious activities. Please, keep this in mind.
4) Health Care: My neighbor's dad lost his job and the mom is a homekeeper and basically, if one of the two children gets seriously ill, they are basically screwed. Are you telling me that these big shots don't want to spend a little extra tax money to help out children whose parents don't have jobs? They have no alternative. Those two girls haven't had a real doctor's checkup in years.
Okay. That's it. Sorry for being hard core liberal. It's just me. X3
