"We have too many young men and women from single-mother families..." Wait, what!? Oh, I see what you did there. You really meant 'single-parent families,' though that still is not relevant to the issue at hand as there would be two parents in any gay marriage. Also, you can't mock someone else's "studies" in the same paragraph that you mention (for the third time) your own conspicuously unnamed "experts." It's the people who write things like that who shouldn't be allowed to have children. Just imagine what kind of damage they could do by inflicting their stupidity on future generations (things like, oh I don't know, becoming president and starting a groundless war, allowing and profiting from possibly irreversible environmental damage, effectively nullifying the first amendment, or incurring debts that our grand-children's grand-children will still be paying off).
favorite quote from the second one... "Mary Cheney is among that burgeoning group of adult women over age 20 that are driving the trend of women who don’t want a man in the picture, but want to have a baby. These older women...."
thought i'd get a few more years before i got labeled as an 'older woman' ;-)
...although, actually, i'm think that the 'older' there refers to 'not teen' (since it goes on to say that teens have been doing very well with abstinance recently). was the author a teenager?
Yeah... so... "The Bush administration is above reproach, but it's totally cool to condemn the dyke beause it's selfish to want to raise a child with a partner who isn't male... but hey, at least she's not commiting murder by aborting it!" Or something like that...
ikes, no! she's not a teenager. *she's* an 'expert'
Janice Shaw Crouse, Ph.D., Senior Fellow at the Beverly LaHaye Institute, the think tank for Concerned Women for America, is a recognized authority on domestic issues, the United Nations, cultural and women's concerns. In May, 2002, she was appointed as a U.S. delegate to the United Nations Children's Summit. Subsequently, she was appointed by the President to the U.S. delegation to the 2003 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women. The Heritage Foundation nominated her for the 2003 Bradley Prize for her influence on contemporary issues. During the first Bush Administration, she was a Presidential Speech Writer, authoring major presidential policy addresses as well as drafting and editing the Presidential White Paper on Welfare Reform.
a quote from another site: "The battlefields are right in our backyards. Nothing drives people ballistic any quicker than for someone to state unequivocally that there are moral absolutes. The knee-jerk rage of liberals' response to the religious right's participation in the political process is a sight to witness. Why are they so angry? Because the religious right believes in God's authority to decide what is right and what is wrong; what is good and what is evil. Sadly, far too many people shake their fists in the face of God and assert their right to do as they please. But, God determines what is right and what is good!
Those identified by Bill O'Reilly as "secular progressives" don't want to hear that:
* Sex outside of marriage is wrong. * Homosexual behavior is wrong; that it is contrary to the order that God ordained. * Abortion is murder and that it is wrong.
In all of these cases, the central issue is man's challenge to God's definition of what is good. So, I believe that there is a biblical basis for our contemporary culture war."
the central issue is man's challenge to God's definition of what is good
But Mary Cheney isn't a man!
Has Ms. Crouse actually bred herself, or is she another butch Republican telling other women to stay in the kitchen? Oh, guess she has (http://columns.christiansunite.com/column_58/Great-Kids-Thank-Dad!.shtml).
Ooh, sex pyramid (http://www.pamspaulding.com/weblog/2006/01/lets-hear-more-about-cwa-sex-pyramid.html).
She reacted to Brokeback Mountain getting a Golden Globe by accusing Hollywood of putting the liberal agenda above profit (http://ant.sillydog.org/blog/2006/001050.php).
It's like talking to a wall of stupid
