    Why do Americans tolerate legislation from Judges to stand?

    The ingenious tactic of turning perversion into something that is a "right", when it is no such thing, has clouded the conversation to the point of incomprehensibility. Yes, it is tyrannical when a small cabal of unelected activists force an unwanted agenda down the throat of the country.

    Why do Americans tolerate legislation from Judges to stand?

    If you had true states' rights, then they could certainly decide that for themselves. Who knows, perhaps blacks could have their own cities or states. But that's fantasy. Meanwhile, although I don't particularly like federal usurpation of states' rights, it's the world we live in. However the...

    Should wealthy nations end world hunger?

    The point is that they are not starving. And I'm not sure your analysis is correct.

    Why do Americans tolerate legislation from Judges to stand?

    Since that has been taken care of with legislation I don't see the point of the question.

    Why do Americans tolerate legislation from Judges to stand?

    No, I don't agree. The Supreme Court was never given the authority you say, it took it upon themselves. "The Supreme Court of the United States spends much, if not most, of its time on a task which is not delegated to the Supreme Court by the Constitution. That task is: Hearing cases wherein...

    Why do Americans tolerate legislation from Judges to stand?

    Yes, because they have no business inserting themselves into matters that society should decide for itself. They have become a body usurping the constitutional authority of the people acting through their elected representatives in Congress.

    Should wealthy nations end world hunger?

    Because there are a lot of charities that feed people and depend on them. That's a good part of the reason there isn't any starvation.

    Not so. http://www.lifenews.com/2015/05/29/gallup-poll-54-of-americans-want-all-or-most-abortions-made-illegal/ "But do those labels on abortion actually mean Americans are pro-abortion? It turns out the answer is no, as Gallup confirms a majority of Americans oppose all or almost all...

    Why do Americans tolerate legislation from Judges to stand?

    Actually no, the bill of rights is specifically to protect citizens from an overreaching government, not minorities or majorities. The Supreme Court has definitely overstepped its bounds by ruling on cultural things not mentioned in the Constitution, and which should be decided by legislation...

    Should wealthy nations end world hunger?

    Where are these starving people? It's well-known, even by Michelle Obama, that obesity is more of a problem, especially among the poor, than hunger, much less starvation.

    Jesus, Don Quixote, and The Christian Culture War That Isn’t

    It does on occasion grow under persecution, but it also grows when not under persecution, and there have been plenty of times in the past 2000 years when it wasn't. So I think the point that is being attempted is lame and inaccurate.

    Jesus, Don Quixote, and The Christian Culture War That Isn’t

    Would you kindly explain that remark? I just don't recall persecution being a cornerstone of Christianity, although of course Christians HAVE endured a lot of persecution, as you seem to agree with your following statement, which seems to belie your snarky self-loathing comment.

    Nah, that's only if you count CO2 as pollution, which of course, it's not.

    Jesus, Don Quixote, and The Christian Culture War That Isn’t

    Well first of all he starts off with a total straw man, claiming that pastors are all exhorting "“These people are the enemy of God and of our righteous cause. They are presently conspiring to engineer our certain demise and without a war our end is imminent.” Something I've never heard in any...
