"While I was flipping through the autobiography, a woman approached the booth. Catherine Sumner, it turned out, was part of GOProud, a group of openly gay Republicans and conservatives that for the first time is taking part in CPAC. “Is this your flyer?” Sumner demanded, waving the white and green pamphlet. Thus launched a debate about gays in the military that pretty much ended when the booth attendee told her that homosexuality is a sin and she’s going to hell.
“It’s insulting,” Sumner, 31, who edits a military magazine, said turning away. “Across the board the reaction to GOProud’s presence here has been positive, but then you have guys like this. Even Dick Cheney came out and says he supports us. Conservatives have to be more inclusive, they have to be.” In fact, just one group, Liberty University, boycotted CPAC over the inclusion of GOProud, though the Catholic crowd weren’t the only ones unnerved by their presence: one booth down from GOProud’s set up in the fourth row, those manning the National Organization for Marriage, which works to ban gay marriage, kept casting nervous – and slightly envious – glances at the somewhat larger crowd surrounding GOProud’s booth.
The tensions didn’t end there. Along the back wall 2004 World Poker Champion Greg Raymer stood waiting for a talk radio interview. “Focus on the Family considers poker immoral,” Raymer said, gesturing towards the Focus on the Family booth down an aisle. “They have no right to tell me what to do.” Raymer is at CPAC representing the Poker Players Alliance..."

Nope no way? Just put yourself in your great grandfather’s shoes...he probably never dreamed of what exists today.
You’ve read too much sci fi and thought it was factual.
Did your grandfather know anything about stem cells and that there would be a battle over human embryos being created to harvest them? It’s not fiction.
It’s fiction to think that mad scientists with no regard for the value of human life or traditional morality will make the world “better”, or that the future will be a grand techonological utopia as they fantasize. Hitler and his gang used a lot of innovative science.
Read Brave New World if you haven’t, and again, if you have.
And since many “primitives” such as myself refuse to live in a mechanistic hell such as you describe, it would have to be implemented by tyranny, so tyranny is the main feature. Plus all that crap won’t work.
God is the greatest engineer, inventor and scientist. All others are as dust, and their grandeur is only in their own minds. In fact, anything they discover or know is only a pinch of a reflection of His energy, and as He gives, He also takes away.
Just love the law! Leviticus is one of my favorite books of the Bible. :) Especially after becoming a parent, and seeing the love of the Father throughout. I also have a bad habit of looking at life eternally and forgetting we can’t fine someone for something as inconsequential as lying. Off with their head!
Okay I understand. God’s law does equal morality. Man’s law, not so much. :)
I just glanced at Rush’s site and he had an interesting article linked at the top. “Our Laws Descend from Morality”

I have been wrestling with how Jesus will rule the world. What laws will be written (or dusted off), and how He will reign after having served first. Divorce laws will change, etc. Will He force morality for everyone’s well-being?
conclusion: CPAC is dead.
its not even a real pac.
cpac has no place in the real world.
Refreshing -like fresh air.
