A few suggestions to conservatives from someone who considers themself a moderate politically speaking.
1. Stop pushing the bible on me. Politics and religion are 2 separate monsters. True, there is a certian morality that comes from organized religion however, morals and laws are meant to be separate.
2. Shut up about abortion. If you are so concerned about children's lives why is it that you have turned blind eye turned to rampant sexual abuse going on in the church for at least the past 30 years if not more. If you are so in tuned with god and the community, how did this go unnoticed? Was it ignored? This is a tangible issue that all can agree upon. No one likes child molesters. Spend your time on an a issue that needs to be dealt with yesterday.
3. Stop bombing the shit out of the rest of the world. I am so sick of seeing tax money going to blowing up orphanages and hospitals. These bombings don't solve anything. I watched a movie the other night that discussed terrorism. When being interrogated a suspect in a bombing said this in response to a threat of bombings in his home country. "It is was unites us (terrorists, countries with terrorists) and divides you(Bombers)."
4. Stay away from my television, my computer and my books. If you don't like something on TV or radio, shut it off. Don't let a TV raise your kid and you will have no problems.
5. Why bother with the gay marriage issue? Seriously, don't you have something better to do. Unless you are going to exempt people from paying taxes based on sexual orientation (taxes which in part pay for your bombs), don't exclude them from having the benefits of everyone else.
So, as promised here are your compromises...
1. You can have the death penalty. Just make sure that the person is guilty.
2. You can go to church. Just don't tell me about it when you leave.
3. Bomb something that is actually a threat to the world (N. Korea) but try to negotiate first. If you have to Bomb, make sure that we are not the only ones doing it.
4. You can have your bible. But I get to keep Howard Stern, Playboy magazine and HBO just the way they are.
5. You don't have to be gay. Nor do you have to be straight, but let people do what they want.

Sorry I'm late, but wait no more!

Done
2. Shut up about abortion. If you are so concerned about children's lives why is it that you have turned blind eye turned to rampant sexual abuse going on in the church for at least the past 30 years if not more. If you are so in tuned with god and the community, how did this go unnoticed? Was it ignored? This is a tangible issue that all can agree upon. No one likes child molesters. Spend your time on an a issue that needs to be dealt with yesterday.
The two issues really have little to do with each other and the idea of relating the topics forms a sort of logical fallacy. An abortion doesn't warp a child's life; it destroys a human's chance at survival. I would compromise on the abortion topic with two sub clauses:
a. Assisted suicide should also be legal and preformed at the same licensed facility.
b. The aborted child should be given a name and a burial/cremation.
3. Stop bombing the shit out of the rest of the world. I am so sick of seeing tax money going to blowing up orphanages and hospitals. These bombings don't solve anything. I watched a movie the other night that discussed terrorism. When being interrogated a suspect in a bombing said this in response to a threat of bombings in his home country. "It is was unites us (terrorists, countries with terrorists) and divides you(Bombers)."
How about we just stop bombing orphanages and hospitals, and we bomb bad guys?
4. Stay away from my television, my computer and my books. If you don't like something on TV or radio, shut it off. Don't let a TV raise your kid and you will have no problems.
Done. Especially Deadwood on HBO. I like that. But you have to decrease your alliances and organizations like (insert dumbass "we are offended group" here) by 15%. Or at least have an application process to see if there topic is worth bitching about.
5. Why bother with the gay marriage issue? Seriously, don't you have something better to do. Unless you are going to exempt people from paying taxes based on sexual orientation (taxes which in part pay for your bombs), don't exclude them from having the benefits of everyone else.
You can marry a damn dog for all I care.

I heard a new George Carlin routine where he "condenses" the 10 commandements into 1 or 2 by doing what you just did, Hadtobedone. Pretty funny and true. Basically he ended up with something like "Be nice to others, be honest and don't kill people with certain exceptions" =) I think his entire point was, coincidentally, a compromise for people who wanted the 10 commandments in public places. I think he made a good compromise honestly - to steal, to kill, these are sort of the same thing - being nice to others, being honest. If you're one of those, you shouldn't steal or kill (or rape, or pillage etc) So maybe we should just have a big sign, instead of the 10 commandments, in all public places that tells people to use their common sense.
We can't help it if people's common sense is eating babies. There are both very bad and very mentally ill people in the world but I'm an optimist. I happen to think that at least 95% of the population is capable of being a sane person if they're not forced into an insane "ethical code" through violence, intimidation, poverty, whatever it may be.

Read the Ten Commandments, at least 6 are GREAT suggestions on how to live a good life, and have NOTHING to do with religion, besides the fact that they're in the Bible.
----------
6??? That have nothing to do with religion?
ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'
TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'
THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'
FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'
FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'
SIX: 'You shall not murder.'
SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.'
EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'
NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.'
TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbour's house; you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbour's.'
So let's see, 6 have nothing to do with religion. Well, 1-4 are right out. 5 is a matter of personal respect, and isn't true in every case. Seven is a personal morals call and has no business being legislated by government. 10 goes against the modern American way - see something someone else has and desire it and use it as your motivation to get ahead.
So really, the only ones we should use are "Don't kill, don't steal, and don't perjure". Great, we'll get right on writing THOSE laws...

1# Like you said sort of, the underlying morals of ANY religious writing are the basic definition of how to live your life. I'm talking about the non-religious rules of the writing. Most of the Ten Commandments are very good life instructions. It is the stupid attention-whores that haven't realized this yet. They create lawsuits so their daughter that they don't even see anymore doesn't have to say 'under God' in their morning Pledge of Allegiance. (Michael A. Newdow)
----
Here's the thing: there is NO such thing as "non-religious rules" of the Bible. It's all religion whether non-religious people agree with it or not. Just because a non-Christian and a Christian can agree that society would be better off if we didn't murder eachother, steal from eachother etc - why would we possibly need to even mention religion? If you're a sane human being then you should already understand that. You shouldn't have to read it anywhere.
It's also worth nothing that the ideas contained in the Ten Commandements are not exclusive to the Bible or any religious text for that matter.

"MORAL and ETHICAL beliefs of the Bible!"
It's your bible, your holy book. I want nothing to do with it. You say it is a structure to live by, to mold our government by. There are other faiths. There are people with out faith. Yes, our ancestors were Christian, but this is NOT the old world. Culture evolves, and the times must change with them.

I think JayJonez brings up some good points, and obviously is more educated than that primate gbusman. While this post had some weak points, I believe it had an overall strong message. Not everyone wants to be held under the opression of the Christian Faith.
And that what this still all comes down to - we're fighting over faith...
Gbusman and his kind belive in a faith based government for everyone, regardless of their beliefs. They are no better than the Nazis. Intelligent people want compromise. They seek unity through diversity. This is frightening to those like gbusman. His way is the "Right" way and all else is evil. Or pagan as I believe he so foolishly put it.
=================================
We do not live in a faith based Government, and that is not the goal trying to be achieved! The goal is to have an America run by the MORAL and ETHICAL beliefs of the Bible! Not necessarily the religious understanding of it. Read the Ten Commandments, at least 6 are GREAT suggestions on how to live a good life, and have NOTHING to do with religion, besides the fact that they're in the Bible. This is the Democrats problem, they can't figure out the differences, only the similarities.

were'nt most of america's morals/laws/rules modelled after the ten commandments? (not all, but you get the idea)
a lot of our laws are being questioned today...because however many years ago, our founding fathers would have thought it "an outright folly" for it to be legal for a doctor to kill an unborn baby. lawyers twist the wording of these laws around and then hide behind those laws.

Abortion is not murder. According to the US government, a fetus is not a person until they have been born and can be issued a birth certificate and social security number. If this were not the case, a fetus could be claimed as a dependent on taxes. Since it can not, the US government says that a fetus is not alive.
Again, according the the US government.

Yes, we all know this. Yet if that is true(and it is) How was Scott Peterson convicted of the murder of his unborn son? I am asking cause I don't get it. Not that I don't think that asshole shouldn't get the chair....

#5 The definition of Marriage is between a man and a woman. They're trying to keep the true meaning of the word as it is. Have you heard of Civil Unions? Where two gay guys or two lesbians can have the same state and government rights?
--------
Many of these "defense of marriage" laws/ammendments also OUTLAW any other union which attempts to approximize marriage.
Want an example?
Ohio Issue 1, which passed in November.
"Section 11. Only a union between one man and one woman may be a marriage valid in or recognized by this state and its political subdivisions. This state and its political subdivisions shall not create or recognize a legal status for relationships of unmarried individuals that intends to approximate the design, qualities, significance or effect of marriage."
Not much room for civil unions, is there?

Ample time is spent on issues that are against the law, there is not that much that we can do to prevent people who break the law, and are not caught. What can we do? We can't do anything, there will always be lawbreakers, that's a fact.

"...morals and laws are meant to be separate."
- This is a terrible point. I am a strong supporter of the separation of church and state, but this is not the right angle to approach it. Laws ARE there to ensure our behaviour is moral, they have everything to do with each other. The problem is, religion is not the only place where we get our morals from.
-------------------------
Morals and laws are completley different. Do you want to go to jail for cheating on your wife? Why is abortion a hot topic of bible beating psycopaths? There are many things that are morally unjust yet are not illegal. This is the reason for separation of church and state.
-----------------------------
As for your example about the children I think you are right on.
------------------
I still think the death penalty is o.k. What I meant was that because of DNA and other scientific advances there should be no question when executing someone. Remember, I consider myself a moderate

I have to minus two this because you just don't get it. You [along with most liberals/Democrats] speak out of ignorance; you don't know the real reason of why certain things are done. Because they are somewhat related to religion, or whatever, you guys blow them out of proportion! "ahh church and state, ahhhh!"

"you are so concerned about children's lives why is it that you have turned blind eye turned to rampant sexual abuse going on in the church for at least the past 30 years if not more."
- As a liberal, even I agree that it is not a conservative viewpoint to ignore child molestation. It would have been much better to put forward a case centered on their apparent lack of care for children starving in third world countries, or suffering from the war on terror.
"1. You can have the death penalty. Just make sure that the person is guilty"
- Now come on. That's what conservatives are advocating now. Your court system now is the best way you have to determine whether a person is guilty or not. You sound like a retard.
All the rest, while put sort of bluntly, I agree with. All I'm saying is that this was not a good post. In fact, it is sort of worse than the other one.

I apologize for being so crabby on this post, but the other one upset me, and so did this one.

No worries, I would not have been fortunate enough to read your constitution post if you had not been.

I watched a movie the other night that discussed terrorism. When being interrogated a suspect in a bombing said this in response to a threat of bombings in his home country. "It is was unites us (terrorists, countries with terrorists) and divides you(Bombers)."
-------------------
for those of you who would like to know, the movie is called "Dirty Bomb." It is the first movie that I have seen that portrays the results of such an attack. Its a pretty good flick.

I really enjoyed your post, and I see your point. It seems that many of the arguments I have spoken about in this post would be easily resolved if we would just go straight to the source. The Constitution. Unfortunatley, this administration is using it as toilet paper.

I asked for a compromise from a god-hopper. She threw the book at me. I said if she's not taking it all literally, I don't see why she should take any of it literally - but it didn't help any.
Aside from that she was actually a pretty cool person, but I'm not even going to try any more. Damn christians, steal my (now ex) girlfriend!

You're full of wisdom buddy. Would you like to apply for president of Earth?
Replacements are badly needed.

That makes so much sense. Too bad conservatives have too big a stick up their ass to realize that doing what you said would actually unite the country.
