Poll
Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


83% of the WRCs reported handing out condoms to female students encouraging them to engage in casual premarital sexual intercourse.

100% reported sponsoring The Vagina Monologues – a play encouraging women to focus upon and, indeed, be proud of their sex organs.

17% sponsored programs that deal with the worldwide exploitation of women for sexual purposes – for example, child sexual slavery and child prostitution in Southeast Asia.

0% who claimed to sponsor programs that deal with the worldwide exploitation of women for sexual purposes – for example, child sexual slavery and child prostitution in Southeast Asia – were able to name a single program they sponsored that dealt with the issue.

0% sponsored programs that condemn the mistreatment of women in radical Islamic nations. None focused on the sexual exploitation of women in the name of Islam.

The results of this small and unsophisticated survey would not change much if the sample size were increased tenfold to 120. One still would not be able to find much evidence that WRCs are interested in doing things for women who are truly suffering from inequality. Nor would one find many that disagree with the importance of enjoying sex and loving one’s vagina.

This all begins to make sense when you refer back to a recent column I wrote, which offered a new definition of feminism in the 21st Century. In the column, I defined feminism as a movement that seeks unlimited rights for women without corresponding responsibilities via the suppression of criticism of feminism.

Campus feminists seek the right to control their bodies under the mantra of “Sexual liberation.” They avoid responsibility under the mantra of “my body, my choice,” which seeks to suppress criticism, moreover input, on the issue of abortion coming from men or female critics of abortion.

Campus feminists seek the right to engage in vulgarity by sponsoring The Vagina Monologues. They avoid responsibility for spreading negative messages by enforcing speech codes, which suppress criticism of the play coming from opponents of feminism.

But, of course, feminism is failing on America’s campuses as Hannah’s story shows. The condoms kept her from getting pregnant. But they did not keep her from getting a broken heart and an STD. Now she’s having a tougher time feeling proud of her vagina. And her only hope is in the forgiveness offered by Christ, as opposed to the punishment promised by Allah.

It is a sad commentary that feminists are doing little to make women in other countries as well-off as women in America. But they are doing much to make college women as miserable as some women not fortunate enough to be born in America.

Oh, Boy!
Don't you hate it when you leave a nice, well-thought out essay that spoke from the heart and was (I think!) gracious to all concerned and, at the same time, informative (I think, again!!)... only to go back later and find nothing?! And because it was from the heart, I wrote nothing of it down. Oh, well!

One point I had made was that the epidemic of "social diseases" (AIDS included) is the direct result of the legitimization of behavior that was once (correctly) regarded as immoral. Another was that the suicidal lady that Swampfox referred to owes nothing to the lapsed standards of behavior that allowed HIV to be dealt with as a political issue rather than a medical problem.

Bad things happen to good people. This is a fact of life. Good people are also harshly tested in their faith and moral clarity. This happens constantly as well. In fact, it may be the purpose of the universe!

Swampfox: You say that you're a Christian who is confronted by inner homosexual tendancies. You can be both and you're not the first. My point is that you're trying to approach your problem from a secularist angle that denies responsibility. I'm just trying to suggest that you should re-evaluate that and look to the Bible and the fellowship of your Christian brethren for a better solution.

Best to all.

Swamp, you can't refute so you insult
Swamp, insults is all you have. Your handlers have told you that since you cannot refute the sterility of homosexuality as a prime indicator of its legitimacy, since you cannot refute the shortened homosexual life expectancy, since you cannot refute the fact that homosexuals must proselytize children, since you cannot refute that normal, decent Americans are disgusted by the homosexual flaunting of their perversions, since you cannot refute the homosexual disease spreading as admitted to by Mattie Foreman/National [Male and Female Homosexual] Task Force, then you can and SHOULD resort to insults. GROW UP.

Why do you, a celibate, virgin homosexual, defend the indefensible? You owe the active homosexual perverts nothing. Your celibacy and virginity are half the battle, maybe more, FINISH THE JOB: Stop defending the indefensible!
