Hi. I found your LJ through the community you run. I'm doing a poll for my American Government class, and I'm trying to keep the results balanced between Conservatives, Liberals and Moderates. I figured the best way to do this was to post the results on various political forums. I'd really appreciate it if you'd post a link to it on your community, or even take it yourself. It isn't very long, and shouldn't take too much time. The URL is http://dunnpoll.tripod.com
Yeah, I did. I wrote all the questions, made the site and designed the polls last night, and I already have well over a hundred results. The response I'm getting is overwhelming; I never expected so many people to be interested in it, but the results are (sadly) fairly one-sided. Having more conservative input is going to help a lot! Again, thank you very much! Hopefully I'll have some results posted by the end of this week.
Is there anything in my entry about shunning them? No. If there is, show me.
Let's see - I love my brother, why shouldn't I marry him? My mom? I know a bunch of great guy friends, why not just marry all 5 of them? it's love, and no one should dictate who I'm to marry, right?
Abortionis murder. As soon as the egg is fertilized, it begins life, and begins to grow.
No, George Bush isn't telling me what to do. I know that abortion and gay marriage is wrong.
I mean that marriage is love as in loving someone so much that you would like to spend your whole life with them. If you love someone that much, what does it matter if they are the opposite sex or the same sex? You love them, and that should be all that matters.
The fetus does not have a regular, strong heartbeat until the fourth week of pregnancy, and I beleive that something is not alive until it has a heartbeat. And I absolutley do not believe in abortion just because, I don't believe in it unless it is incest or rape etc.
Do you believe that abortion and gay marriage is wrong just because the Bible said so?
well we live in a day and age where there are more things then love to marriage...there isnt anything anyone can do about it. it matters if they are the same sex or not the same because God made Humans, Adam and Eve...not Adam and Steve. God speaks clearly in the Bible that Homosexuality is wrong. I live by God's word because it is the truth.
The fetus is a living human being... 1) we are all made of cells right? cells are living correct? the fetus is made out of cells! y might u ask? the egg CELL and the sperm CELL join and create new CELLS! which means that the fetus is living. Just because the fetus doesnt have a heart beat for a while does NOT mean its dead

I have absolutely no problem with you saying that the Bible says abortion and gay marriage are sins. However, the United States is not supposed to be run by the Bible. There is supposed to be a seperation of Church and State, it says so in the Constitution if you need any further proof. This is why I don't understand why people support Bush for these reasons (I got your lj name from the teens for bush thing), it is wrong and immoral to force your own morals upon people who aren't necissarily that religion! I am by no way attacking your faith or what you believe is right, I'm just saying that yours is not the only religion out there, there are so many others. What if Bush was Jewish and decided to make a law stating that you could ONLY go to Church on Saturday? See what I mean, it's unfair

The United States isn't being run by the Bible. It's the furthest thing from it. That's why there's premartial sex, gay marriages, divorce, banned Bibles, banned "Merry Christmas", no praying in schools, and..yeah.
And, I don't like Kerry or Bush. They're both evil men to me. But, I supported Bush over Kerry because he believed what I believed.
And, the thing is, Bush isn't stating a law saying you could only go to church on Saturday.
Btw, I'm not Catholic. I'm Christian. And because of what God says, and what I know is right, I'm against gay marriage and abortion.

No, the US is not being run by the Bible which is a good thing. My point was that it shouldn't be because it would alienate a large percentage of US citizens who do not follow the Bible (like Jews, Hindus, Muslims, etc

I’m sorry it’s taken me such a long time to reply to your comment, but I’ve been overrun the past few days, averaging 100 emails a day. *sighs*
This country was founded on God. English Puritans sailed to America. True, there were those who came only for the excitement, or money, but mainly, so that the Puritans could be free to worship God.
When do you think a child is actually “alive”? There’s the controversy.
Abortion is the fifth main reason for maternal deaths.
:D You’re my favorite person to be debating about this right now. Funny, but I was going to say the same thing about Kerry fans. Lol. But, let’s not get into that…I think both guys are bad.
