Don't ask for something you can't provide either Tim and don't try and pass me another line about what the bible says. I have morals and I shouldn't have to defend that based on someone else's beliefs.
Only speaking for myself here, but I'll go through the list.
More tolerant? Same thing you supposedly wanted, but it's not really a concern of mine.
I don't want teachers to force anything on anyone unlike how you want to force creationism on others.
I don't know what a gay curriculum is. Do they dress the kids in leather and go barhopping?
Politicians want to raise your taxes. No other titles need apply.
Smoking forces people into a box, a cardboard one. Not me.
I think you know by now what kind of music I listen to and as much as I like John Lennon, he's not my first choice and I don't force any music on anyone. I share it and let them decide.
You've got this all-encompassing fear or hatred of something called liberals and all their evil plots and schemes. You make these wide sweeping unfounded accusations about this evil group and then portray the religious right as peaceful little moppets sitting in a corner looking on and praying it gets better. Cut the crap already. Liberals have a certain idea of what our government should be, just like the right wing does. We all need to meet somewhere in the middle and just settle on what's right and wrong, what's the law, what's best for everyone, what's just acceptable and where we go from here. Quit all the bullshit and posturing and bickering and nonsense and get back to the simple three things it all should always have been about. Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Do not think for a moment that the bible is going to cover any of those bases for me personally just because the book says they should, but it seems a perfectly reasonable starting point for actual negotiations on your side. You bring your bible and we'll bring the Constitution. See you in the middle.
