unbillievable

That's like going to the movies on a weekday and saying that only old people go to the theater. There is no way a parent can get their baby/child/teen in good clothes before 10am for Church.

People usually find Religion when times are tough. The millenials biggest concern is dealing with periodic Global Warming apocalypse predictions.

You should visit the Greece thread. That is a country that has the same beliefs you do: That it's better to be on government assistance than have a job. Are you still trying to pretend you're not a far-left liberal?

I'm surprised that Global Warming Alarmists haven't started a petition against lightning for burning down a church.

Anyone have an account with WSJ. I don't like just reading headlines.

Yes, since they will be responsible for causing a lot of unnecessary medical bills. Also, don't let them into any public places. It's worse than second hand smoke. As far as Dante's rant about the government overstepping it's authority: I see forced vaccinations the same way as seat-belt laws.

This one sentence points out two things. 1) You've only been reading anti-vaccination articles, because the answer to this question is in every single medical reply on the internet. 2) You're incapable of thinking for yourself and are just parroting talking points. We should treat the unvaccinated like we do smokers.

My AIDS is acting up.... better smoke a joint.

I was hoping that Dolezal would make an appearance at the BET awards as a show of solidarity.

I was little sympathetic towards the people of Greece until I started reading opinions and comments they left on these articles. Those people are (almost) as delusional as Patriots' fans.

The Greek people are screwed no matter what they do, so they're standing on principle. They refuse to accept that their socialist policies failed, so they choose to blame the system that cut off their supply of other people's money instead. They believe that leaving the EU is a way they can hurt the "fat-cat bankers" who stopped the gravy train. At this point, it's no longer about saving their economy (something many of their citizens believe can't get much worse), but on how many countries they can take down with them. Basically, they're throwing a temper tantrum.

A simple summary of Greece's problem: 1) A large portion of their economy is tied to public jobs. 2) Because of this, they cannot grow their economy without an increase in government spending. 3) But they can't increase spending (outside of foreign bailouts) unless they increase taxes on the citizens they support. -Basically, they have to chop off their hand to feed themselves. They regulated away from private sector businesses foolishly thinking that government spending is what drives economic growth. (sound familiar?)

A major flaw of capitalism is it's ability to support the lifestyle of the socialist activist. It's much easier to convince a population they need to "redistribute the wealth" when there is an abundance of wealth available to redistribute.

Why should churches have a tax exemption? True equality means an equal sharing of miseries. That's not exactly true. People started questioning marriage benefits when women began entering the work force, making the core idea of the tax benefits moot. As two income families became the norm, it's inherent "unfairness" became obvious to the growing number of unmarried (and single parents.) The LGBT community simply wanted to hop onto the gravy train before it stopped. Ironically, it may be their inclusion that finally ends the (tax) benefits.

We'll break it so we can fix it. Punish the productive many to carry the incompetent few. It's easier to beg on your knees than to lift with your back. It's better to pay a lot now than to pay a lot later. Private companies should not provide what the Government can supply for twice the price. These are just a few suggestions for campaign slogans...

Sounds a lot like the liberal policy of passing laws to find out what is in it. "uhh.. we didn't know it would do that." While many point to the warning signs, the left keep marching forward crying ever harder that the "slippery slope" is a fallacy; reassuring us that just because they took the first step -which was painfully idiotic- they aren't planning on taking step two (just yet).

Give me back my jacket!!

This was already answered in cases following the court's ruling; Denying to bake a gay wedding cake isn't considered discriminatory unless the owner is doing so under religious reasons. Think Hate Crime criteria: you'll know it's illegal when you see it.

It's better to charge forward with a bad plan than to sit still with none? Is that in Sun Tzu?

Licenses granted in one state must now be recognized in all states? Guns and Weed for everyone!!!

It can't be any simpler. ...and there was no mention of God in the example.

A couple wants a divorce because one of them cheated on the other. Their catholic priest says they aren't allowed to divorce for any reason. The couple joins a Protestant church who allows them to end the marriage citing adultery. Was the above conflict about the couple's right to divorce or whether cheating is a valid reason?

Let's be honest. There is no legal reason for the Supreme Court's decision. The justices voted for the outcome they wanted. Even Kennedy states that it was an emotional decision. He admitted to bypassing the text of the Constitution to correct a cultural (in his opinion) grievance. The Supreme Court did what Congress was unwilling (or unable) to do. Next up: Legalize illegal immigrants:Denying the rights of citizens to non-citizens is discriminatory.

I don't know which is worse, the above statement being serious, or sarcastic.
