Just ask a leftie. He is sure to tell you the right to kill as in Mikey and O.J. is right there in the Constitution, shown clearly following the white-out. He is sure to set you straight twisted.

Please note: This is neither satire nor humor. The leftie actually passes it off as thought.

For instance: In July. Christians disrupted a Hindu priest as he led the U.S. Senate in prayer. Ms. Gray might argue that we are a Christian country, but I checked the U.S. Constitution. Sure enough, Article I states, "Congress shall make no laws respecting an establishment of religion …" The founding fathers placed no adjective in front of the word "religion" because they wished to promote religious tolerance.

Whatever happened to, "Love thy neighbor"? In 2005, conservative Christians led by then-Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, Sen. Rick Santorum, then-House Majority Leader Tom DeLay and President Bush, sought to use the powers of the federal government to deny Michael Schiavo his right to allow his severely brain-damaged wife, Terri, to die. The courts intervened, the machines were disconnected and Terri died. Doctors determined that her brain had deteriorated to half of its normal weight and she would never recover. How Christian was it to prolong this existence?

Conservative Christians continue to deny others the benefits of stem-cell research. They argue that fertilized eggs would be destroyed in such research, thus killing the lives within. Yet researchers would use only those eggs designated for disposal anyway. I find it curious that no Christian has offered to save a single egg by having it implanted in a paid surrogate, who would raise the fetus to term, and then adopt the baby; nor has legislation been introduced making the disposal of fertilized eggs a crime equivalent to murder.

Some Christians try to deny rights

Advice to the love-lorn. They left out a good tip. Try to avoid marrying a psychopath.

Another important thing to remember when getting married is to update your will and your beneficiary designations. Although most things automatically go to the spouse upon the other's death, your beneficiary designations on your 401(k) or estate-planning documents will remain in effect until you change them.

Armstrong also says it's a good time to update your will and to get a power of attorney and health care proxy as well. He cites the famous Terry Schiavo case, where the spouse and parents of a comatose woman endured a brutal court battle in 2005 over her medical fate. "You have to choose who is going to make decisions for you -- your spouse or your parents," he says. "No one wants to think it can happen to them, but it does happen, and it's not a bad idea to get the documents taken care of right away." 4. Create a Budget Together
