Man made god - Part 4 - abortion, death penalty and healthcare

During the course of this section of the interview we move slighty off topic and I begin to rant a little.

But hopefully some will find it interesting.

We get back on track (and I shut up) in part 5.

Health care is easily fixed in your country... remove tbe Tax free status of religions and donate the billions of dollars to providing care for the less fortunate... after all it's the Christian thing to do wouldn't it?

Well first of all a fetus is not a person especially when a embryo is in a stage that would be accepted legal for an abortion. Furthermore, the 'abortion vs death penalty' is contradictory since for the judeo-christian religious person there can not be any killing whatsoever since it is forbidden by their religion.. so abortion and death penalty should be categorized as being the same thing for them and therefore -contradictory to their beliefs-.

@ZZzzzzzWhat 500 character limit ... I had to simplify. :p

@KittenKoder

"justifying the alteration of their own laws to suite their own desires." True but most of these christians never read the Bible which is the most hypocrite thing.

"to justify killing when it furthers their 'cause'." True and that is a common thing to all 3 abrahamic religions.

In the end what they want is not "moral values" but imposition of religious doctrine on everyone which is sickening. I've tried to explain how abortion really works but they don't really care.

Okay, the health-care thing, and I'm NOT religious in the sense of organized beliefs. However what is often considered health-care is really just health-insurance, and the two are exclusive. The topic is far more complex than either side is even considering. However, in the US, ALL health care gets paid, and the government can be made to pay it if you fill out their forms and such ... which oddly is why the costs are so high anyway.

[KittenKoder]

@ZZzzzzzWhat Not entirely accurate. The one thing the christian religion did well ... justifying the alteration of their own laws to suite their own desires. It was the reason I broke free of that religion, hypocrisy angers me, lying angers me even more. If you read the religious texts, there are always excuses given to justify killing when it furthers their "cause." Like witch hunts, for example. It's a delusion of morality.

Try again.. Men are biased towards controlling the birth process? Sorry but no. Look around you, what do you REALLY see? "A woman's body, a woman's choice, and the man's wallet if that's what she chooses, a dead baby if she chooses that instead". The man's choice can be summed up like this = "Whatever the whore says".

Liberty is my motavation for opossing national/compulsory health care. It will limit my choices. Once something is free is becomes scarse. parts 1-3 i liked, part 4 seems s off track. Cuba has about 100% literacy but the cost is loss of liberty.

Same here in Croatia.

@freeflo2007 taxing the church, this is when the church cries separation of church and state, therefore avoids being taxed. Yet they pry, poke, interfere, and influence legislation, every chance they get.

i downloaded tbisbook and am reading it at the moment, it is very interesting indeed, a little short but nonetheless an informative read.

@psycho3968

trillions, not billions. . .

an absolutely insane situation that has been perpetuated far too long.
