Indiana's Pence to sign bill allowing businesses to reject gay customers

Isn't humility one of the values that Christianity purports?
dont know if all chriatins feel the way but thats a very good point. the bigots that support illegal discrimination dont show any humility at all

thier own self importance makes them want thier opinions forced on all not matter peoples rights, no modesty about it either, they want special treatment and thier rules followed or nothing at all

one the other hand those that support equal rights and respect the rights of others over thier own important views and understand others should have thier freedoms also are perfect examples of humility
 
capitalism has created the best standard of living in the world. Communism-well lets see

we had Stalin-20-40 million killed. Mao 15-20 million killed. Pol Pot-hard to say maybe 5 million. great track record there

Again, those are leaders of socialist states. You are referring to the famine and deaths during world war 2 under stalin? What about famines under capitalist countries? Mao? His plan failed, congratulations, what does that have to do with communism? Pol pot? What does that have to do with communism? Communism has never been seen in effect, capitalism has, end of discussion. Capitalism has created the best living standard for people in imperialist first world countries, not the rest of the world, and even then, not for everyone, as the system becomes more harmful as time goes on.
 
depends if the information is accurate and balanced, or one-sided and inaccurate. when it comes to liberalism, I will take unbalanced and inaccurate for 2000 Alex

It would be a copyright violation for colleges to be fair and balanced. Fox News bought the rights.

Comparing and contrasting ideas is bad right? Especially when both sides of a contradiction can be right.
 
Romney's Vice President pick and libertarian extraordinaire.

I guess I never looked at the guy close enough to figure it out

looks like he could kick Biden's ass in a fight though

modern liberalism on college campuses tends to be rather hostile to contrasting ideas
 
Your postings have done more to make people agnostic and atheists than any poster I have ever read. Your bible is just an old book of fables written for bronze aged people, it has no powers...other than to be used to excuse the most awful crimes man inflicts on others.

Horse manure. You've got zero credibility with those sophomoric ramblings.

And you have zero credibility trying to use your god as a hitman, and getting excited while fantasizing about sinners getting punished in hell by your all loving "god"
 
Nope, not homosexuality. He forbade gay sex.

if that is true, why did he make so many people gay?
and where did he tell you that? I am calling BS
 
Anti-discrimination laws are Constitutional. They've been challenged and upheld. It's how the system works. That you don't agree doesn't make them unconstitutional.

Yes, I have read the court rulings that upheld them. Perhaps you can explain to me where business is listed in the commerce clause and how the fourteenth amendment is not violated by the law, but instead the law is constitutional because of the fourteenth amendment? How can the government force someone to give up their property and not violate the fourteenth amendment?

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Tell me how the law can force someone trade their property to another person and not violate the fourteenth amendment.

I find it sad that the court was trying to argue that it didn't violate the thirteenth amendment, which it does, by trying to argue that it is permitted due to the fourteenth amendment when it's not. In fact, it violates both amendments, but the courts are too slow to realize what the word deprive means or what forced commerce means.

There a easy answer for that if you're really interested, but hey, I see you're just winding LM up.
 
Liberal indoctrination = exposing students to information.

Actually not. Lets define some terms.

to teach (someone) to fully accept the ideas, opinions, and beliefs of a particular group and to not consider other ideas, opinions, and beliefs
Indoctrinate - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary

MADISON, Wis. – A University of Wisconsin-Whitewater English professor offered her students extra credit for attending a rally Thursday evening against Gov. Scott Walker's proposed budget cuts to the University of Wisconsin System.

So using the bait of extra credit to push an agenda, and to push a perspective? Is that exposing student to 'information'? Or is it political indoctrination?

Disturbing: LOOK What We Found In This Liberal Textbook

Pushing a political agenda again. It's perfectly fine to discriminate against men, as women don't have the power. How do you explain the female CEOs of major fortune 500 companies then?

According to Campus Reform, a professor at Denver’s Metropolitan State University has been leading his classes in the compulsory recitation of a rewritten Pledge of Allegiance designed to tear down the U.S. for its perceived shortcomings.
An admitted socialist and atheist, Dr. Charles Angeletti published a flier bearing the text of the proclamation American Civilization students were required to repeat this year. “I pledge allegiance to and wrap myself in the flag of the United States Against Anything Un-American and to the Republicans for which it stands, two nations, under Jesus, rich against poor, with curtailed liberty and justice for all except blacks, homosexuals, women who want abortions, Communists, welfare queens, treehuggers, feminazis, illegal immigrants, children of illegal immigrants, and you if you don’t watch your step.”

Pushing a political perspective and a political agenda again.

Though she claims she has been intimidated and bullied for opposing Common Core, a Missouri kindergarten teacher reportedly testified Thursday in support of a bill that would prohibit the controversial state standards in the state’s public schools.

Squashing decenting and ideas / opinions that run counter to the agenda.

It's actually being recognized by some in academia.

Perhaps nowhere are First Amendment values more imperiled than at the modern American college campus — the very place where free speech should be most dearly cherished and vigorously upheld.

So argues Greg Lukianoff, president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education and author of “Unlearning Liberty: Campus Censorship and the End of American Debate,” which was released in paperback this week.
Author interview: How college administrators murdered free speech | The Daily Caller

The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) released its 2014 report on campus speech codes today, finding that 59% of the 427 colleges and universities analyzed maintain policies that seriously infringe upon students’ speech rights. For the sixth consecutive year, however, this percentage has dropped. Despite this progress, confusing signals from the federal government have created an unacceptable tension between universities’ twin obligations to protect free speech and to prevent discriminatory harassment.

These are only a very few examples of what's going on at nearly all major college campuses. We need to be concerned about what sort of adults all of this liberal / progressive / Democratic political indoctrination is going to produce. A generation of adults with a fairly warped and distorted sense of morality, fairness and understanding of how the world really works.
 
So is this an admission god did not create everything?

I don't understand why a god would allow humans to be sexually attracted to the same sex, and then put forth that it is wrong to act on it, well, supposed god, as a Bisexual male, who has engaged in "homosexual sex" smite me. And yeah winston, "logicman" might need a name change.

Actually, I was pondering how it might apply to yourself.
