- When I read your original posting, I was first amused, then very
- saddened. You seem to think (from your first item) that the
- government is responsible for the values of your family. You, sir,
- have that responsibility. Every family is faced with that
- responsibility. If your children become homosexual because of what
- they learned in school, you have not done a good job of teaching them
- your values, or they had that proclivity from the start. Or are you
- suggesting that you can handle it, but the rest of the people,
- sheeplike and unaware, cannot? A little arrogance goes a long way.

- I do feel that the government should not undermine the values of my family. I agree
- that it is my responsibility to teach those values. I guess the point I am tring to
- make is that the radical left does not share my values, further more I often wonder
- what values they do have. When I was a young man in the sixties, I was concidered
- liberal. My values haven't changed much over the years and now people call me a
- conservative.
- One of the most destrubing comments that I have read regarding my post went something like
- this.
- "We are a people living by the rule of law, not a people sharing common values"
-
- The point of this comment and yours is that morality has no place in society. That I
- have no right to expect society to have a shared set of values, and that each of us is
- on our own, and anything goes. Well you are proably right, first we took God out of
- public life, now it is time to take moral values out of public life. I am simply
- expressing the opinion that this is a mistake.
