    Abortion

    Bottom line, should women be given the choice to make the decision of abortion or not? If it is a bad thing, they will find out for themselves. Prohibition is a proven failure.

    Abortion

    Genetic structure is distinguishable, true. As you clearly say, "DNA is not human life" and I agree. So the DNA which is the basis of the fetus is not a human being. It is a potential human being, in the same way a fertilized egg is a potential chicken. Yet, an egg is not a chicken...

    Abortion

    Two pieces of DNA from two human beings are in a laboratory. Do those two pieces of DNA in the lab have individuality? Nope. Once a human being is dead, DNA is still there. Does a dead human being have individuality? Nope. When the life is gone, individuality is gone. DNA and...

    Abortion

    If the government has a duty to protect what you call the unborn individual, why is it not illegal for pregnant women to engage in behavior that is potentially destructive to the fetus? Why are poor pregnant women not supported by the government in a manner that ensures the maximum health of...

    Abortion

    "I mean, anytime I am not 100% sure of something I don't do it." These are the words of a trader? The issue is choice, personal choice, not what others think of the choice. We demand proof of guilt to convict, innocence is assumed otherwise. Choice is the foundation of our...

    Dooh Nibor Economics By PAUL KRUGMAN Published: June 1, 2004 Last week the Washington Post got hold of an Office of Management and Budget memo that directed federal agencies to prepare for post-election cuts in programs that George Bush has been touting on the campaign trail. These...

    Abortion

    Is a fertilized chicken egg a chicken, or an egg? Is the potential to become human (no guarantee that birth will take place) the same as being a human? While you are legislating protection for the fetus, if you are consistent, you must also ban the use of any chemical, or food, or...

    Abortion

    I quite agree. However, once women have talked to other women who have had abortions, understand the pros and cons, then want to go forward anyway, should the state determine whether or not they have the right to make that decision to go forward?

    Abortion

    Parasites are separate and living entities that are found in the intestines of some human beings. Is it murder to remove them? Once a fetus is conceived, it is living matter, but it is not a human being, it is a fetus. A fetus has no rights, it has no more rights because of its...

    Abortion

    The state stops people from killing children, a fetus is not a child. An egg is not a chicken, is it? Nope, not until it hatches is it a chicken, any more than a fetus is a child before birth. The analogy of prohibition to abortion is valid, because the point is that trying to prohibit...

    Our democracy is flawed, if not an outright fraud.

    Bush has no trouble writing checks that his administration will never have to pay for, the deficits he creates are not his problem....they will be a democratic adminstration's problem. Who would have thougth that advancing a conservative agenda would be so expensive....

    Our democracy is flawed, if not an outright fraud.

    After taxes, the serf's standard of living was equal to today's standard of living? Should non citizens vote, no I don't think they have earned that right. Living in this country, earning money, and paying taxes alone is not a sufficient measure of voting rights in my opinion. Is there a...

    Our democracy is flawed, if not an outright fraud.

    In that I believe that members of society, especially the most fortunate members have responsibility for the well being other members of society, especially the least fortunate, and that the wealth they have or generate is a product of the system of our society more than personal effort....so if...

    Our democracy is flawed, if not an outright fraud.

    Apparently you have no concpet of how a civilized and socialized democratic society actually works. What is your vision, a return to land baron and serfs?

    Our democracy is flawed, if not an outright fraud.

    The dangers of allowing the "havenots" a say in how the government is run? Oh, you mean the slaves, American Indians, minorities and women too, not just land owners, don't you? Not to worry, when was the last time you saw a man of humble beginning become President....oh ya, forgot, Bill...

    Our democracy is flawed, if not an outright fraud.

    So a very intellegent, successful person who then chooses not to work, has no income beyond living from investments, should not have as much voting rights as a person who chooses to work and make lots of money? If the right to vote is tied to income, it will only support the values of the...

    Abortion

    Prohibition of alcohol didn't work. The Christian right and pro lifers have not demonstrated their willingness to adopt and care for all unwanted children. Women will continue to get abortions, and there will be abortion pills soon, that even if outlawed, will be available via the black...

    Abortion

    First of all, the issue of whether or not a fetus is a sentient human life is unanswered scientifically, so the issue is a moral one. Science can't begin to effectively deal with the issue of "soul" so the concept of "when the soul enters the body" is entirely a religious issue, and religion...
