The sun will rise tomorrow.

Get over it people.

I actually had a really insulting response to this post, but I quickly realized there was no need.

I bet it had something to do with apathy.
Right?

Apathy is a kind way to put it, I suppose.

Oh please Professor, the only reason anyone posts topics of this nature is to stir people up. Admit it, you like acting like my opinion is crap and your shit dosent stink.

Jason, quite honestly, how can you objectively think that way? Vampyr and I don't agree on abortion AT ALL, and yet we are able to have a constructive conversation on the topic. Xantar and I historically don;t agree on ANYTHING yet we have a cordial relationship going back YEARS and multiple forums. I don;t agree with them, but I respect his opinion because he took the time to reason it out and made thoughtful statements.

Meanwhile your idea of a political or social issue conversation is two sentences of emotion filled, knee jerk, thoughtless cliches in response to thoughtful opinion. Regardless of agreeing or disagreeing with my opinions, you will always have a explanation as to how I came to those opinions.

Whenever challenged as to what lies beneath your rhetoric, you simply state that you feel no need explain yourself but you have reasons. In my opinion, if your not willing to show anyone that your opinion is worth consideration, you should just simply stay out of the conversation. No one should consider an opinion simply because it happens to exist.

If you don't respect your opinions enough to test them, then they aren't worth the time it took for you to post them.

The reason politics are so messed up these days is because politicians don't know a damn thing about what they are talking about. I'd like to hear McCain or Bush attempt to explain the ramifications of abortion using Biological and Philosophical terms. Or, how about D-Bag Stevens, that guy thinks the Internet is a series of tubes.

Maybe if politicians weren't so ignorant we would have more funding towards valuable scientific research and maybe we would actually start to have a progressive western culture.

I can only dream. That's the problem with being apathetic about important topics like abortion.
