If God is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, and eternally benevolent then I have enough faith that people will be guided to make the right decisions without me playing God and telling them what they should do.<BR/><BR/>I also have enough faith that God will deal with them in due course if they make the wrong decision. <BR/><BR/>You truly believe that we were blessed with all this talent and intelligence, but we're just supposed to watch the weeds grow and not interfere? I don't buy it. I have more faith than that.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024832959937205245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-1153530305684029112006-07-21T21:05:00.000-04:002006-07-21T21:05:00.000-04:00I have a feeling you're on the other side, and tha...I have a feeling you're on the other side, and that you're a "dunce" by my simple evaluation. <BR/><BR/>What people in today’s political debate landscape have forgotten is that people can differ, and still walk away with a certain level of respect for their opposition. I don't have that for the other side, in general, because it's not reasoned discussion rested upon their morals that leads them where they are. It's judgment and "holier than thou" posturing separated from any true debate and exchange of ideas.<BR/><BR/>I do know that there are wise folks on the other side; it's just rare that you sort through the chaff to ever encounter the wheat. Maybe you're one of them, if so, welcome.<BR/><BR/>You're right. I didn't write that to stir opposition. As those who support his veto they have their opinions, I have mine. I support what the governor of my home state, California, did. He took action where it counted and approved $150 million in funding to stem cell research projects the day after Bush’s veto: http://www.10news.com/news/9553062/detail.html/ I might not agree with Governor Schwarzenegger on everything, but he lodged protest the right way, by taking action.<BR/><BR/>I'll look at the link you posted, and I'll see what I think of it.<BR/><BR/>I don't censor opinions, so you're welcome to share yours, if you see fit. <BR/><BR/>This is the one place where I can call folks who oppose stem cell research "dunces". That’s what I believe because that’s what I think they are. <BR/><BR/>It's personal, and I'll admit as much.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024832959937205245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-1153520360720009962006-07-21T18:19:00.000-04:002006-07-21T18:19:00.000-04:00I stumbled upon your blog in a random search.

Your life and pursuits sound amazing and interesting.<BR/><BR/>As one of those "dunces" your blog refers to, you'll hopefully forgive me for differing with you. As a legal scholar I imagine you are accustomed to debating, so clearly your opposition to the president's veto was not intended to stir conversation.<BR/><BR/>The moral dilemmas brought upon a society capable of playing God should make us all take a step back. Take a look at tammyswofford.blogspot.com if you get a chance, and look for the invitro question. It's certainly good exercise for the intellect.<BR/><BR/>Bless you in your endeavors, and in your health.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13441809988487585009noreply@blogger.com
