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?

Ok so it's the dark ages and there is endemic warfare, it's so bad people can't even build permanent settlements because any concentration of wealth will get stolen by a group of thugs and eventually torn down in the chaos. Then a charlemagne figure carves his way through the barbarian tribes, starts building churches occupied by clergymen who are probably the only literate people in a 50 mile radius, these churches proceed to indoctrinate the thugs from infancy to be obedient to their feudal lords and the peasants to grow crops and take the produce to towns to support iron smiths, carpenters, shipbuilders, wool workers, masons and all manner of tradesmen who go about making their prince's fief more wealthy. Life expectancy rises from 25 to 40 and about 5% of the population now live in relative comfort for their entire lives instead of the 1% that were lucky enough to become the leader of a warband for a brief period before they were killed or assassinated. Why is this a bad thing? So what if there is more inequality? A rising tide floats all boats.

Cry more.
