Libfas, please explain your ethics

1.  Why is it wrong to kill a violent criminal but okay to kill an innocent fetus?  I'm not particularly opposed to abortions, but it makes no sense that you rail against capital punishment while endorsing abortion.

2.  Why do you despise Christianity but tell everyone else that their religions are beautiful and are to be respected?  I don't understand how you can extol the greatness of science and education while while telling everyone (other than Christians) that their baseless beliefs should be protected.  I'm generally opposed to religion, so I say if you're going to hate one of them, hate all of them.

3.  Why is it wrong from conservatives to go on fear mongering about terrorism but it's okay for you to tell everyone the world is going to end because of global warming?  Whether or not you believe in either of these supposed threats it's clear that both sides are using fear to manipulate people.  Why not take the higher road if you're so educated and ethical?

4.  Why do you like Mac so much?

5.  Why do you believe the federal government can fix all of society's ills when it can barely deliver the mail?  It has been proven throughout history that large central governments lead to corruption and abuse.  Why do you continue to support big government?

It's not entirely true that Vikings could kill whomever. No one could go on a spree killing women and children. And if Thorgeir killed Eirik, Eirik's family would start a blood feud with Thorgeir and his family, effectively having eye for eye justice. If no peace could be made, the dispute would be settled at Tinget, which is sort of like a court, where the aggressors could settle things in a Holmgang (literally: going on a small island), which was a duel on a small island, usually ending in death, though one could yield, and be at the mercy of the opponent.
