I THINK I'LL GIVE UP CALLING MYSELF BOTH CONSERVATIVE AND CHRISTIAN | 2004-12-13
I was watching a discussion of stem-cell research which would avoid killing the stored embryos that will never be children anyway. Half of them are clinically dead, and can still be used for research. The rest you can throw away, because some of them could become children if someone did what they are not going to do, implant them.
BY THE WAY, if they DID implant those embryos, it would be in vitro fertilization, which every fanatical pro-lifer wanted to outlaw.
They say you can use the dead ones, but not the "live" ones that are going to be dead.
This makes the question of how many angels can stand on the point of a pin look like sober logic. I don't want to be associated with people who talk like that.
I also don't want all the crap everybody keeps trying to load on me for calling myself a Christian. I will leave that up to Christ and stop using the word.
As I said before, I am anti-liberal, but I am NOT a conservative. They are stupid, childish, and embarrasing. They don't even know any history, which is what conservatism is based on.
I think I'll just go back to the title of my first book in describing liberals and conservatives, Jehovists and Moslems and Jews and Blue-Bird Worshippers:
"A Plague on BOTH Your Houses."
