I AM a social conservative!!!! It's how I LIVE.

I just don't want our GOVERNMENT trying to mandate every little aspect of our lives. Is that so frakkin' hard to understand? If WE are in power, that is one thing...

What happens when THEY are in power?

Abortion on demand. Gay lifestyle taught in schools. TSA pat downs of 3 year olds...

GET THE PICTURE?

Hello....

When we had laws against sodomy and porn we had less federal government power. Look back at history.

That stuff is now not outlawed and now we have more federal government interference than ever.

Tell me how making how to manuals for molesting little kids is going to give the government MORE power when historically such laws came at the time that the government actually has less power.

Your argument and reasoning are failing big time and you don't get it.

Look, if you want the kind of limited federal government we had when this country was founded, you have to accept the moral atmosphere as well. They go hand in hand.

You cannot have limited government with no moral restrictions. It doesn’t work. The only result is going to be anarchy, which is going to result in the implementation of a tyranny to keep order.

If society is not kept stable by the internal moral controls of the citizenry, then the government has to step in and control externally.

And the only moral system which works and allows for a free, little regulated society is is the Biblical Judeo-Christian one.

Can I try some reverse psychology?

So please. Tell us. If us so-cons were in power and put these ideas into law...

Just what bothers you about this?

“I just don’t want our GOVERNMENT trying to mandate every little aspect of our lives.”

Really? I’d suggest you go back in time to a period of the US history where this platitude was possible. But you could not.

So can you at least wish for the good old days when abortion and sodomy WAS illegal? You know - when those nanny-stating so-cons were in control?
