Ok now this is crazy!!! I dunno what to think.... I see both sides....

I am also split here.

I don't like it when people have a ton of kids. Even if they can afford it. I don't think it is fair to the world. The whole thing with religion and birthcontrol is stupid, and will lead to big problems.

I don't think the government should have a say in this though. However with continued population growth, something will have to be done.

I don't have any kids, by choice.

It's the 11th Commandment: "Thou shalt not consume pills or useth other means to prevent unnecessary and unwanted children. What kind of senseth wouldst that maketh?"

Obviously your Bible is missing something. Pssh.

Well, Moses tripped and fell coming down the mountain, and chipped off the 11th commandment.

I believe the belief comes from the impending sense of doom, that christianity sells as inevitable. Some folks decided since the world would end and god was real that we never have to worry about over population.

This quiz is worded in one of the most bias ways possible. If the wording were something like "Should people have children who cannot afford to care for them" I am sure the majority would vote No.

I am all for civil rights but the state should try to halt people from having kids who cannot support them.

Yeah, I think I agree with you. The only thing is where would the state draw the line for "cannot support"? That could turn into something nasty.

I agree, but how do we keep the government for using this as an excuse to take more control? You know how this goes, you ask for a little, you get a lot.

hasn't the government got in trouble before for fixing mentally disable people?

Um, excuse me, are you paying NO attention to my posts whatsoever? Does this conservative sound like he's wanting rights taken away? It's just like LIBERALS to make generalized assumptions.

So there.

That's exactly my point. On the one hand, people like that shouldn't be allowed to be parents, but on the other hand, how are we going to ensure that those in government discern as they should? This could easily get out of hand fast.

I don't know how to resolve this. It seems we'd need enough people we could really trust in government, but when's that ever going to happen?

I think we just found ourselves in what the philosophy nuts call a moral dillemma.

uh, offer birthcontrol and tell them if they stopped having kids they would have more money for drugs..
