You are way out of line. It's absolute positions like yours that make freerepublic a worse place than it should be.
How is he out of line? I won't be surprised if in a few years illegitimacy becomes "the norm" and the married folks are the freaks, enabled by the mushy, timid, spineless creatures who can quote one whole line from the Bible. Preventing a woman from facing social disapproval is a whole lot different than preventing her from being stoned. What's more, the nonjudgemental attitude leaves the womanizing philanderers, who are already buoyed by popular worship of the Playboy, in an even stronger position.
"It's absolute positions like yours that make freerepublic a worse place than it should be."
Gee...that's kindof absolutist and inflexible, don't you think?
I am not "way out of line" on most things. But some things, by definition, cannot be compromised on or negotiated, because to do so is to give up your belief. The best example of that (and I hesitate to mention it, because this thread is not about abortion, even though some people think it is)...is abortion. I am against it. I don't parse it. It's wrong.
