catholicinsd Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) Please explain below. PS The other canidate is a African American, who is pro-choice. Edited November 30, 2006 by catholicinsd
CatholicCid Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 I choose the 3rd Option, I refuse to speculate. Depends on the opposing Canidate.
ardillacid Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 There is no way on God's green earth that this could happen.

[/quote] And the Holy Bible says "For behold! All things are possible with God." And it has happened.
ardillacid Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Well in that case, yes I would. Segregation is not going to happen, even if 1 senator gets elected with these views.
CatholicCid Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 It'd be wierd to see an election like this where the canidate is a main stream canidate... So, to choose between a pro-life and racist or a pro-death canidate... Looking at just these two issues, I would vote for the pro-life canidate. I don't think he would have much ability to return segregation unless the rest of the house or whatever agree with him. (and are you talking about the guy who wanted to redrew public school lines so they basically segregated the schools? saying it'd be easier to learn in)
catholicinsd Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Notard, let's say, that it isn't senate, (where 1 vote doesn't change anything too much, as you correctly said,) Let's say its another office with the power to re-instate Apartied.
CatholicCid Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) Are you basically trying to make us choose between racism, a degredation of human dignity, or pro-death, an ending of innocent lives? If so, it'd be easier to phrase the poll like that. Edited November 30, 2006 by CatholicCid

[/quote] Well, which would you regard as the "lesser of two evils", as they say And, I'd assume that if one can restart segregation, he can also end the culture of death.

catholicinsd Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 [quote name='CatholicCid' post='1131630' date='Nov 30 2006, 01:18 AM'] Well, which would you regard as the "lesser of two evils", as they say [/quote] Well, depending on how extreme the racist canidate was, he would probably be the greater evil, (that if he supported race-murder and the like.) Now he he simply wanted to seperate the whites and the minorities, the pro-abort would be the greater evil.
CatholicCid Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) Then, I'd go with either not vote or go with the lesser of two evils... Or vote Green Party Also, to your original statement, if the canidate was "pro-life" completely but supported a 'nazi-ish cleansing' thing, then he is no longer pro-life. Som since he entirely pro-life, You'd probably vote for him? Which also means he can end the Culture of Death by the hypothetical situation. Edited November 30, 2006 by CatholicCid

[/quote] perhaps in this situation its best to not employ the term "pro-life" but rather "anti-abortion" And a racist shall never receive my vote. Edited November 30, 2006 by catholicinsd
CatholicCid Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) Then that's a different matter entirely. In my own mind right now, and it is late, I would have to favor the safety of human life over that of human dignity. I don't know which canidate that would be, but I would use that as a guiding factor if I must vote. Edited November 30, 2006 by CatholicCid
Theoketos Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Actually Racism is a non-negotiable. So it would further depend on who has less non-negotiables.

In fact, it just seems totally inconsistent to on one hand espouse the inequity of various races, while on the other hand to say all human life is valuable. "we're all valuable, but some more so than others"? I'd question whether he was truly pro-life.

[/quote] What the heck is an African-American, pray tell? No such thing. If they are an American citizen, which I must assume, since they are running for office, then they are an American. Period. Regardless of race. This hyphenated carp needs to stop - all it does is serve to divide us. Groo Anglo-Scot-Franco-Chicano-American...whatever
