Gay priests and female girl’s team coaches are hard to preclude, on a number of grounds.

Lifeydoodles who practice a religion of ‘moral rectitude’ are going to always be with us, like liberal moral Nazis.

The advantage of the nanny state to liberals is they don’t have to give a rip about the starving drug addict they step over, its handled. Social workers, DMV clerks, postal carriers, enviornmental lab technicians all work in service of people.

A free pass to sainthood.

Oh, and I realize this isn’t really a gay marriage thread but I thought I’d point this out:

Obama considers intervening in gay marriage case

Does it surprise anyone that Obama lied when he considered this a state issue back when he announced he was for gay marriage when nobody believed he opposed it?

Gay marriage isn’t important to liberals for any other reason than it’s a means to destroy the concept of federalism. States will no longer be sovereign entities but merely administrative districts for the central government. That’s part of fundamentally transforming the country. To do that you can’t leave citizens armed, and you can’t leave states with a means to resist the program.

He already filed the brief.

True, it does not directly argue that state marriage amendments violate the 14th Amendment. But there is no doubt that if the Supreme Court agrees with the primary arguments of that brief, it would, at a minimum, call into question the continued validity of state marriage amendments that also ban civil unions (e.g., Oklahoma, Virginia)

Yes indeed, which is why I intended it as an example of what they did not do right.
Guess who my child wanted to believe? Yes, the teacher.

My understanding is the person who took the picture, while a nature buff, was not happy her work was being used as scientific misinformation.

Tend to have a dozen, bro is sort of a fringe of the Brethren that way.

Interested in our lives outside their orbit? No, not beyond confirming their life’s path.

In the Driftless area of WI, you can miss their presence entirely. What seem to be wooded boundaries between farms are deep swales that you drive down into on dirt roads.

At the bottom they open up into safe little vales.

Its a brief enough life, to pass it without commutes, road rage, bankruptcies, dissipative celebration, advanced degrees, .. , seems entirely valid from my vantage.

I can’t imagine anything more inclusive than a school system that demands rigid conformity to their agenda upon pain of punishment, even and especially if it goes directly against whatever values you try to instill into your kids at home.

Did anyone there even consider the fact that this sort of thing would lead to violence?

I know for a fact that the students at the high school I attended, when I went there, would not have put up with this kind of shit. No boy would have dared asked to admit to feeling like a girl.

Like I said, the lifeydoodles are still trying to find a place to draw a line.

You’ve got to watch them thar lifeydoodles, Doc. You never know how far they’ll go.

They may attempt to use the public school system to brainwash your kid that the global warming science isn’t settled or even (shudder) indoctrinate your kid into the pseudoscience of creationism while also teaching them the one true faith of evolution.

They might even punish the kid for trying to resist the brainwashing cuz they’re not good tolerant people like liberals who are open-minded about differing points of view.

Why, when I lived in the Bible belt the Xtofasists even made me buy all the beer I needed to get through the weekend by midnight Saturday because there were no alcohol sales allowed on Sunday.

The heathens. I believe they may even have a secret plan to take away my rights and tell me how to live.

That’s what the Democrats who know best what light bulbs I should buy and how many gallons per flush I ought to be allowed and that the world won’t let me heat my home or drive an SUV tell me, anyway.
