If anyone could actually read links they might(doubtful here) have some ideas of what the questions were getting at....

Most likely not however.

A few simple questions, OP.

So you believe in the sanctity of human life?

Simple yes or no.

[Note: I really don't care what you answer. I'm not really interested. I'm just pointing out how silly and transparent your OP was.]

PS. You haven't answered my point. You had two answers to your "simpleton question" right off the bat. And yet, just a couple comments ago you were crowing about "nobody answers my question! Ha!" When will you be correcting yourself?

I love it! What a turn of phrase! I'm stealing it right now. Next time someone is explaining to me how being a greedy selfish pig is the only rational philosophy, after they've finished explaining to me how Abe Lincoln won the Cold War by dropping the A-bomb on Whitaker Chambers, I'm going to whip this on them!

I like how so many of the caring leftists are in favor of forcing some to work for the benefit of others....

It's a Gotcha question right?
Yep, its a gotcha question. Of course its wrong. HOWEVER, we do live in a society and we all benefit from that society. We do, therefore, have certain obligations to that society. This results in such things as taxes, a military draft and conscripting attorneys to provide a legal defense to those who cannot afford it. Is this socialism in a capitalist society? You bet. But we need a certain amount of socialism to make society work.

Funny how the people that love what Jon Stewart and Colbert do to republicans on their shows are bashing you for doing the same thing.
