THIS IS BUSH'S HOUSE!!

I have been reading www.dooce.com and everyone that reads her site seems to be a bleeding heart liberal that believes in evolution and doesn't believe in God. Sad.

I posted a comment because I was so tired of hearing all these people bashing President Bush.

Here are my comments and a few replies.

I voted for Bush because he is against abortion. I want him to veto Roe v. Wade. Since Roe v. Wade over 45 million children have been aborted. I am pro-choice, I just think the choice begins before the pregnancy occurs. Why should the child pay because you are too stupid to practice safe sex? Religious or not, I think it is frightening how irresponsible we are as a people as a whole and we expect the government to swoop in and fix all our problems. People act like President Bush has made all these decisions incorrectly and that he is a raving lunatic, I just don’t get what is so much better about Kerry. Every President goes into office thinking that he can change the world and the reality just isn’t so- President Bush has had to deal with 9/11 and a sinking Economy and that Economy was sinking when he took office. How quickly we forget- it could have been President Gore which is laughable. I bet the majority of the people that read this site, which I love, and Dooce I love you too, but I have a feeling that most of you believe in Evolution or the Big Bang theory, that there is no moral absolute, that there is no God, and that somehow we just came to be, and that we shouldn’t reach out a helping hand to other countries, and we should sit idly by and let everyone fend for themselves. Perhaps, you can change my mind? So far, no one has really given me a good argument as to why I should vote for Kerry. So tell me, what are your reasons?

A few of responses:

So, Eddo, this is off-topic, but you can maybe give a plausible argument against evolution, for instance. One that doesn’t involve “we came to be because God wanted it that way”. That sounds just as errand and arbitrary to me.And yes, I for one think that there is no God and specially no moral absolute, but I do believe in people and their right to live their lives as they want as long as they don’t interfere with other’s lives. Tolerance is a tricky word, Tolerance means to tolerate something that you think is wrong. That’s wrong. If you think something’s wrong, fight it (peacefully). The point is understanding there’s nothing wrong with gay marriage, for instance, but everything’s wrong about invading other countries and killing thousends for no good reason. That’s wrong and the world should not “tolerate” it.

EddoIf you think that practicing safe sex is such a great idea how can you support a government ties up international aid with NOT telling people about using birth control? And let’s make sure we don’t tell our children about it in school because if we don’t tell them, they won’t have sex at all! Right.

Eddo,
Here’s my argument. My best friend and his wife were expecting a baby. She began experiencing heavy bleeding. She became seriously anemic. The bleeding just wouldn’t stop. They had genetic testing done. The baby was so chromosomally malformed that it hadn’t a chance in heck of surviving outside the womb for more than a few hours of intense, ungodly pain. If the mother attempted to carry the child to full term, she had a better than 80 percent chance of dying herself, leaving her husband without a wife and her 2 year old son without a mother.
And yet they had less than 24 hours to make that decision, because one more day of gestation would have made that choice illegal in our state, despite the fact that carrying it would have killed her.
That’s why abortion should remain legal. Because what right do you have to tell her that she should die because she accidentally became pregnant with a baby that was going to kill her?

Isma and others that responded to me, I respect your comments and more than that I appreciate the mature responses that I receieved.
It saddens me Isma to think that you don’t believe that there is a God. Perhaps I am a weaker person, but when I look into the eyes of the people that I love, when I feel scraped out and hollow inside because I have lost someone that I love, when I look at the beautiful eyes of a new born baby, when I see a sunset, I can’t help but know in my heart that something out there greater than me, greater than this world created the universe. I can’t sit back and think that just by chance that we have so much variety and diversity on this Earth. I can’t look at the sun and just be amazed that somehow it is just far enough away from the Earth that we aren’t all cooked alive.
Why is it that we all have unique DNA? Why do we have different fingerprints? Why do we have unique voice tones? The list goes on and on, I believe it is because God made us special and unique. Psalm 139:13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, 16 your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
……………………….
To JustMe- Your argument is a good one, and in that case I believe that you should do what you feel is best. I don’t stand here and think that I have all the answers, I don’t. But I hate to see that we kill unborn children because it is an inconvenience to our perfect lives.
Much Love

President Bush wins! Four More Years! - and now the possibility to elect three new supreme court judges and the opportunity to overturn Roe v. Wade.

My beliefs-

Gay Marriage NO
Abortion NO
God Yes
Morality Yes

And appently the majority of Americans believe the same way.

Today someone at work said, I can't believe that 1/3 of America is evangelical Christians- It wasn't the time or the place, but I wanted to say, "I can! and I am!" I am not just the president, I am also a client...
