I am very conservative with my political views - but those ultra conservatives really piss me off with their Morality highground BS and bringing God into everything.

I think it is very wrong to use abortion as a means of birth control because you are so damn lazy.. but I feel there are situations and instances that occur all the time where there are tough decisions to make.
But yeah - those few Christians who want to chastize everyone's morality believe we all originated from one man and one rib- and also believe those pep's in the Old Test. used to live til they were 548 years old. I mean really.. WTF?

Pretty much agree regarding abortion...I consider myself a feminist and being anti-abortion leads to some lively debates with other feminists but I see abortion as a tool to deprive women of true equality. I agree that, in the end, the woman must make the difficult decision but that in itself is unfair as it took two folks to create the situation.
I won't critize religious beliefs, my beef is with those who use them to dictate morality to others. The folks I cite bastardize faith and convert messages of love to hate.
