From an article in today's Washington Post, in which one of its liberal reporters writes happily about young evangelicals perhaps not voting so Republican this time:
"I went to school with a lot of agnostic people and after Bush, they were like 'no' " to religion, said Brittany Kelley, 22, who recently graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design. She is leaning toward McCain because she shares his economic views and is afraid that Obama will raise taxes. But in a lowered voice she said she does not feel the way some of the other young evangelicals do when it comes to all social issues. "I have a lot of friends who are homosexual, and if they wanted to get married, that's okay," Kelley said. "They are not going to stop it because it is illegal."
Hmmm. Well, I assume this young lady is opposed to abortion--most evangelicals are.
I imagine then that she has some friends who might seek abortions, too.
Are those "okay", too, then? Because you're not likely to stop them completely, either--even if you make them illegal.
See the problem with that thinking?
