Comments and this blog
I think one of the coolest things about blogs are the comment sections or other ways that people can freely express ideas. I had comments on an earlier blog and it got to be too much of a hassle, though I later figured out how to ban IP addresses. There are going to be some people who comment only to irritate me or other people who read the blog, comment on it, etc. Those people will not be allowed to comment. I don't care if you want to call it censorship or whatever. People who can refrain from personal attacks on people, even with a differing view, will be allowed to comment. I feel bad for people who are wrong, but I don't mind allowing their comments on the board. Truth has a way of showing through, and so it's not like I'm out to hide the fact that there are people in the world who are wrong. Adam took a bite of the apple -- you know?
Please keep things civil here. If not I will do away with comments. There are other ways people can reply to the posts whether it's a direct email to me or on their own blog. If it comes to that I'll address it then.
All of that said, let me ask one question of everyone (who agrees with me or not):
Where do you get your rights?
There are many people who seem to suggest that just because we have free will the nation shouldn't have a say in our personal choices. Well, in that case we shouldn't have a single law imposed on us by any political nation. And much of these many people reside in a country that determined their rights based on the idea of a god.
And so, I'd just like to know the answer to that question so as to better understand why people don't understand, themselves, the reason why this election and every other election (until there are two pro-life candidates, or heaven forbid two pro-choice candidates) should be about abortion, and other things directly relating (such as stem cell research, etc.). It is THE fundamental idea at the beginning of all human rights abuses. Innocent, voiceless people are the ones we are supposed to defend.
