		<description>Okay, why don&#039;t you compare the USA with other countries around the world to see how well you are all fairing.

In Canada, Abortions are 100% legal (and the government will pay for low income women to have an abortion)

We also have the same divorce rate as America.

AND unlike the USA, Abstinence only education is illegal in our schools (only comprhensive sexual education is taught)

We have a lower crime rate than the United states.

(Although, our gun laws also have something to do with that. Here, the laws are stricter. You are not allowed to carry a gun on you. It must be locked, in a case, without ammunition in it, regardless of whether it is a hand gun or a hunting rifle)

We have a lower teen pregnancy rate then the USA.

We have a lower STD rate than the USA.

AND we have a the lowest rate of women performing unsafe abortions in the world.

The problem has nothing to do with Sex, Abortion, or single mothers. 

It has to do with your government, it&#039;s policies, and how they stigmatize these things as being the &#039;proponents of your countries collapse&#039; when really, getting the religion and ideology out of your politics, and having a government that will be realistic in terms of these issues is what you need. 

Your government tells you that sex, abortion and single motherhood is the problem, but that is only your governments unwillingness to step up and deal with these issues.

Look at Denmark or Sweden for example. All of these things I have talked about in regards to Canada also applies to many European countries as well, and they also (respectively) have lower crime rates than the USA.</description>

		<description>Personally, it doesn&#039;t matter one way or another. Believers in a God and atheists all use the money. What words are imprinted have absolutely no bearing on how we use the money or how we think about God or no god. Lets pick our battles; this is not one I care to even think about beyond this email.

BTW - I agree totally with Paotie!</description>

		<description>Sorry for the delay in writing back. I had not thought of the &quot;Predator&quot; issue. It could be that since a great deal (majority?) of cattle are raised for human consumption, that lower consumption would lower cattle population. At least that seems to be the logic of the original author.

For me this falls in my most frustrating category of Double-Standards. When people advocate a position and try to attach moral certainty to the issue but hold themselves or another issue to a different standard.

Thanks for your insight. Blessings!</description>

		<description>That&#039;s, actually, very strange.... I would expect, that a sizable reduction in &lt;b&gt;The Human Predator Population&lt;/b&gt; - would cause the number of cattle to actually increase, as it does to such animals in the wild! Or, are you proposing to slaughter them genocide style; and simply waste all of that food - while millions are still starving?

Can domesticated livestocks even exist without human assistance to do so? And, if not, then aren&#039;t you also advocating the extinction of our own genetic diversity?

If the elimination of all: Cows, Buffalo, Oxen, Reindeer, Sheep, Goats, etc.... - is a good thing... then why don&#039;t we go ahead and kill all of the other predators too... after all, they must also contribute to The CO2 Supply?

How far do we go down that road... to its inevitable conclusion?</description>
