Generally speaking the new testaments trumphs the old testament. This dweeb of a politican shows exactly why religion and politics don't and shouldn't mix. Pure vile and crap like this doesn't belong in religion or politics, to GOD what is to GOD and to caesar what is to caesar.

Has Palin responded yet? I'm on the edge of my seat here wondering how she will talk a circle of logic around this one.

You know, I've always found it confusing that the God from the Old Testament is seen as the good guy. He kills far more people than Satan and, in comparison, Satan seems like a pretty straight up guy.

Meanwhile, right here in the UK, our politicians are busily suggesting that the NHS shouldn't fund homeopathic treatments because they're worthless chalk pills that only have any effect because of the placebo effect, and have been proven ineffective by all well-conducted research.
Much as we complain sometimes, it's things like this that make me appreciate some of the benefits of having sane bastards in charge over here rather than frothing-at-the-mouth bastards.
But that's just what Satan wants you to think! /christianWickerbasket said:

Edit: Precisely, Iapetus. I wanted to draw a direct MP = Republican State Legislator comparison but I'm not familiar enough with the roles. Either way, no power to those that think like this.

Basically, if an elected MP in the UK made the comments in the OP (or similar past topics) they'd lose all credibility, have no support from the public or their parties and have to resign within a matter of hours. The fact that even one or two of these idiots exist in positions of power in the US is surprising and I suspect there are a lot more than one or two. Do these people ever have to resign? Are they ever removed from their positions after making these ridiculous statements?daw840 said:

Speaking for myself, I do not find it logical to believe in a God who lives beyond the sky and makes intercessions into the lives of "lowly" human beings. Such beliefs are typical of religious approaches from thousands of years ago and do not fit into today's more understood world. This may be too much to ask, but as humans I hope we can rise from the prehistoric foundations of religion rooted in the fear that we are insignificant beings who will leave little if any mark on history once we die, and that in death our existence is ended. Through these notions and a lack of understanding of the world around us comes the conception of first gods and then God, starting with depictions of spirits maintaining the world around us in animism. Further "progress" led to the classification of gods as social beings much like ourselves in Greek and similar mythology, and then with the conception of God as a parental figure we arrive monotheistic Abrahamic traditions, among many others. In each of these depictions of the world beyond the goal of religion was the same: how can we properly worship these nature governing powers so that, powerful as they are, they may intercede on our behalf, and how is it that these powers wish us to live? This led to a largely theistic definition of god/God, rooted in dogma and regulation, fear and genuflection. In our modern understanding of the world the basis for this theistic depiction of God is wiped away. We know trees do not sprout up because some being in the sky told them to, we know lightning isn't caused by the anger of the supernatural, we know that the pain of childbirth is not some divine punishment for some sin committed thousands of years ago. However, in rejecting this theistic definition of God rooted in dogma and misunderstanding it is still possible to have a powerful connection with what you feel to be divine. It is possible to have a religionless, atheist God. This is the God that was felt in Jesus by the people who saw fit to enshrine him in theistic, liturgical tradition, the God that was felt in Siddhartha Gautama by his followers who saw in him a way to spiritual well being. This is the God that has been lost through the generations in the trappings of religious and theistic thought, trapped by the rules followers force themselves into in order to somehow gain the recognition of some supernatural being. I reject these beliefs, and reject the thought that some being in the sky has any influence on what occurs in our realm.
Heavily recommended.

Pretty much the only money Planned Parenthood gets from the state are medicaid payments from really poor people looking for birth control. Without birth control, I guess these people would end up with more kids. And since these people are getting medicaid, they are obviously dirt poor and receiving welfare (medicaid at the minimum).
So, the end result is that This Republican is for growing government and expanding welfare. Really smart, you theocratic douche-bag.

They always apologize, and they always cry that they were taken out of context. He said what he said here, no other way to take it. And that "substantial amount of evidence" he mentions is one study that "suggested that there is a higher risk of premature birth and low birth weight in children born to women who have had an abortion". It's a bit of a leap from there to say that abortion = disabled children. A leap you'd be willing to take if you were trying to push an agenda.
I'd like to apologise if anything I've said might convey the impression that Robert Marshall (R-Prince William) should fuck off and die in a fire. I'm simply saying that if he should fuck off and die in a fire this would merely echo the teachings of various public safety films.
