Politics

Hmm, those are very interesting. I find that giving money to the "lazy" is not always the case, I've seen many people who have worked hard in life and have had things happen to them, and shouldn't they get a second chance? If they decide to use the money and be lazy that is one thing, but I feel as if republicans only want money to benefit them. Defending the constitution is a good thing, but at the same time do republicans think that it could be "outdated"? I mean, it is pretty old, back when it was somewhat more peaceful. I find abortion and gay marriage shouldn't go into politics, ESPECIALLY since they root from the bible, (I am a Christian) because that is unfair to other religions if your country uses that as the reason they practice it. I mean it is a democracy right? It seems to limit freedom of those who practice it. I mean if republicans go on that field they might as well lock everyone up who is atheist. I do somewhat agree with the unfair taxes, if I am correct, democrats want to tax hard working republicans more money than anyone else. At that standpoint, republicans find it unfair that they get taxed more, yet they try to make gay marriage equality unfair for the partakers. Maybe unrelated but just wanted to bring that unfairness up.

I find it strange, you say republicans help small business's, but aren't most of them the ones with big corporations or at least fueling them? Spider, I'd like to ask your argument against this post I made. I am interested in what you would think.

Oh, religious beliefs. I understand.

But IMO, in order to have a good government that benefits all, Church should be separated from State.

I understand. But religion shouldn't always be mindlessly followed.

Yes, but why should they get to decide to destroy the body of another?

What I meant is if republicans were to go by the Bible in politics then any other religion would be discarded, if republicans used the influence of the Bible, then even more rules of God would be implemented. Also, I have seen a lot of atheists, and they do not hate Christians. A lot just don't agree with the presence of a God.

Obama isn't socialist. In the Netherlands he would be on the far right wing...

1- Free markets will fail. The government need to interfere with the market when necessary or it will collapse (as it did back in 2007-2008) and companies can't be trusted. They need to be regulated or they'll do horrible things (damaging environment, employing children and underpaid workers).
2- You can't separate the lazy from the poor without actually wasting more money. And even the lazy deserve basic needs.
3- Then why do you think the government should care about gay marriage and abortion?
4- I think both should be allowed and while I could see your point against abortion... I never understood why people were against gay marriage other than just because isn't in the bible. It's not like you'd actually be disadvantaged or hurt if two men/women married.
5- Well there should never be unfair taxes... but what is unfair?
6- Without Socialism you'd be living under terrible conditions, unless you were one of the upper classes of course.

No, actually its the other way around. Most don't want to work. Fake Disabilities is another thing. Really, the people with lots of money didn't work hard to make that money? Where'd it come from then, the sky?

He just doesn't like to say he his. He's driving the whole nation toward socialism.

1. I don't know what Obama is doing to companies so I'll not reply to this.
2. Yes, because the majority of unemployed are eating chips all day...
3. But then they'd be interfering with people's personal lives. So the government is still playing a large role in society.
4. Lots countries don't recognize a relationship between two unmarried people, I think this includes the US. They'd have all kind of disadvantages, for example if one of them died passing on belongings to the other would be much harder. And why would children need a mother and a father? There are plenty of divorced parents that raise their children alone. Why couldn't two people of the same gender do it?
5. I don't get why people always complain about taxes. Yes, the government takes up to 52% (at least here) of your income, but all prices are adapted to that. If, for instance the government would decrease all taxes by 10% companies, knowing people have more money to spend now, would just raise the prices and eventually you'd be in the same situation. You have more money, but it's worth about the same. And even if that wasn't the case, I'd gladly sacrifice half my income if that would mean other people can have better lives, and I can use all kind of public products and services.
6. I don't see how that is a reply to my original point... But unions, minimum wage and free education were all socialist ideas at the time. Without those things most of us would have far less pleasant lives.

Well I wouldn't know about that. But I heard they're a hated minority in the US and that Christians also slam them. Maybe they feel afraid? If that's not the case they're anti-theists, not atheists.

No, actually the bible says stoning is much more appropriate for atheists...

Not necessarily. The very rules which govern modern western society come from basic Judeo-Christian beliefs.

Most of the time it's because  children are taught about Christianity from a young age  and told that is the right thing to believe and follow
