Just to clarify, I am a conservative (examine my posts over the past four years). It is true "I sing my own tune in a choir" from time to time on certain issues (drug legalization, prostitution legalization), but I do so out of my belief in the supremacy of one's FREE WILL.

I don't believe governments have the right to legislate morality and to determine whose harmful addictions are legal and tolerated and whose must be prohibited.

I started out hostile towards Michael Schiavo but the more I studied the situation, the more I sided with him. Go figure.

Yep. Life is messy. The nice thing about you is that you admit bias when you know you have it, you are willing to change when you find evidence convincing enough, and you're trying to engage in spirited debate to determine the truth.

I definitely don't agree with you on this Terri Schiavo topic, but I appreciate your approach.
