A Really Late Thought...I Just Had It Today in Misc JoeUser Forums

I was watching "Bowling for Columbine" this morning. Something struck me as the movie ended with an interview of Charlton Heston, president (I think?) of the NRA. Michael Moore posed a question to Mr. Heston, who really made quite the idiot of himself by repeatedly holding gun rallies in places which had just experienced devastating examples of gun violence

I am Baby Bottle Pop. I tend to be a bit whiny and bratty, but people know I'm a sweetheart and like to spoil me. For the record, I am not whiny nor bratty (tell them baby). The rest is true, though. And no, you're not clingy. Muah.

Reply to The Pope and Birth Control in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I am not selling anything short. I was explaining Pope john Paul II's opposition to birth control, a teaching I personally do not agree with. However, knowing where the man was coming from, I respected his views on the subject.So when you think of it, in the Pope's case, there was but one set of ethics. And they had to be scrutin

Reply to The Pope and Birth Control in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I think you're selling situational ethics short. While humans' engaging in sex for reasons other than procreation may be purely selfish, there are other ethical concerns that must be dealt with on a situational basis. It would be nice if one set of ethics never ran into problems, but that is not the world we live in.
