I am tired, I have to say goodnight.
I agree with what you have said on this thread.
I really, really, want Obama gone next election.
However, when you have people on FR who state that oral contraception is evil, the MSM ( who probably reads these threads)will portray that all conservatives are in agreement with this line of thought. Like it or not, the MSM still has a lot of power.
The people in the middle, who determine the outcome of elections, will think Republicans and conservatives all feel that way. They will vote Democrat.
We will have another 4 years of Obama.
Our country cannot survive another 4 years of Democratic rule.
When I see zealotry to the Taliban level, which runs counter to most reasoned opinion among conservatives, I will fight against it.
To the MSM, not all conservatives feel this way.
Only ultra,ultra, right wing conservatives feel this way.
They are in the minority.
I’ve gone through this thread and found your posts interesting - partly because I disagree with much of what you have said, but also for you being a good sport while coming under alot of heat.
I’m one of those crazy catholic breeders.
My life is not hell. I like my kids.
I’m not sure how you came to a place where you thought you possibly would not have liked your own child - it couldn’t have been pleasant circumstances that bring out that attitude.
I think there is a difference between arguing the morality of contraception (or different types of contraception) as opposed to calling for legislation banning it.
Similarly - we argue the morality of divorce - but you rarely see a call for making it illegal (most understand there are exceptions to most rules)
When I look at the 20- somethings today - no one is getting married. They are co-habitating, getting pregnant, breaking up, moving in with the next one. The children are along for the ride.
There has been a complete breakdown of traditional views on marriage, sex, parenthood.
When I think of abuse - I’m not thinking of the church attending families - those appear to be safe havens.
Many kids have become afterhoughts as the adults pursue their own agenda - jumping from partner to partner.
Anyways...I thank you for contributing to the pot that pays for schools and other child-related goodies.
I hope my kids will return the favor for you.
