I believe liberal morality is killing (unborn) babies. I believe it to be a good thing. Just as I believe keeping the deer population in check is a good thing. People are WAY more destructive to the environment than deer. I'd rather we kill the unborn than the born.

I think eating meat right now is evil-lol.

As usual you missed my point. Yes, each side thinks they are being moral; and my point, was that for most of the last 2,000 years people thought torturing heretics or apostates was moral.

So what we are left with is that morality at its foundation is existential, which means humans best judgement as to what is moral and what is not.

We sure as hell cannot look to the church. Most people are light years beyond the church as far as morality goes.

And liberals, IMO, are more moral than conservatives and as examples are the fact that not one liberal voted against the 1964 civil rights act, and liberals have been way ahead of everyone else in terms of gay civil rights like marriage and gender equality!

So all morals are not equal!

But then you probably see all that as just more blah,blah , blah like the far sides dog listening to people-lol.

"The great irony of morality is that for most of the last two thousand years what was considered moral was often actually evil"
50 years from now, eating meat might be seen as evil. That doesn't change the fact that saying R's don't think about morality is a lie.

"blah blah blah, blah blah blah..Does that look like spaghetti?? "
Sure does, but I can still read "liberal immorality is killing babies" thru the slop. Does neither side think about morality, or does each side think about it in its own way?
