Questions: Says who? Who Now I have a few sets the standards for right and wrong? Who gives them the right to establish these standards? Suppose we disagree on our definitions of right or wrong … who are youto decide for me? Based on what?

Remember when sodomy was not only wrong but a crime? Who suddenly decided it was not only right, but now legal? And who has the right to declare pornography as wrong or illegal? Doesn’t that interfere with my rights? Who gives them that right?

Why should my next-door neighbor be allowed to earn $250,000 a year and I only have $32,500 of disposable income? Why shouldn’t he be forced to share with me? If you are making $75,000 a year, and I am only making $45,000, why should you be allowed to have more than enough? Why can’t I take some of your extra, even if I have to do it with a gun? Shouldn’t we have wealth redistribution to insure fairness?

In certain cultures, under certain circumstances, when the old and sick were looked upon as drains on the community’s resources, they would be thrown into the sea, buried alive, or simply starved to death, so why should a nurse be given 11 life sentences for 22 mercy killings of very sick and elderly people?

Plus, if she doesn’t behave, why do they want to put me in jail just because I beat her up? If he can divorce his wife by simply saying “I divorce thee” three times, why can’t I do the same thing in Virginia? http://www.wnd.com/2012/02/who-decides-whats-right-and-wrong/
