Re: Illinois Judge rules in support of LGBT equality
"not going to get a state contract", as you say now is substantially different from, "not going to get a state license", as you said first. No-one is telling them they can no longer their adoption services to anyone that wants them. They simply will not have a state contract, un...

Re: Illinois Judge rules in support of LGBT equality
They are not telling them that they can't offer addoption services. They just aren't going to get a State Contract for foster care and adoption services. If they want to continue with the state contract, real simple, just play by the rules as set forth in the state contracting procedures that every...

Re: Illinois Judge rules in support of LGBT equality
But if the state starts telling religious groups that they are no longer licensed to handle adoptions, it's not that big of a step to telling the churches that they are no longer licensed to perform marriages. They are not telling them that they can't offer addoption services. They just aren't goin...

Re: Illinois Judge rules in support of LGBT equality
So why is this issue so important? Catholic health care providers are handing out birth control pills, morning after pills, IUD's etc etc etc. Catholic health care providers are offering voluntary sterilization and pregnancy termination services.

Re: College students asked to share GPA
Not true at all. I had an organic chem class, taught by the dept head, that was BRUTAL. Class was filled with biology, chemistry, and pre-med students. I got a 35% when it was all said and done. Good for a solid A-. The material was brutal and the instructor was equally brutal. Guy would staple dro...

Re: If you want to pay more in taxes...
Interesting thought. I've wondered about these terms myself. Middle class. Working poor. What does that mean? I'd say that lower middle class means all the bills are paid, have a job with health insurance, lives in a modest(100K or less) house or rents, drives a decent reliable car, always has food...

Re: College students asked to share GPA
Grading on a curve is more a testament to the instructors inability to teach than the students inability to learn. Not true at all.

Re: Illinois Judge rules in support of LGBT equality
I really don't get this. Why is THIS the issue where the line in the sand gets drawn? Why this one? You can (at least in Illinois) go to a catholic hospital/clinic/pharmacy and get voluntary sterilization procedures, birth control, and even pregnancy termination. They decided to cave in on these iss...

Re: OK, who ordered the double dip??
The answer to all our healthcare problems has been right here in front of us the whole time.
And its a solution heartily endorsed by the right.
Using Tax dollars to support a vast network of govt health care providers.
This is even better than ObamaCare proposed.
