Eh. Meme thingy. And, no, I will not go to sleep.
01] Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey?
Duh...
[02] Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No. Why would I want to?
[03] Abortion: for or against it?
Against. Life begins at conception. One situation where I would okay it, being a situation in which if both mother and child will die in childbirth and killing the baby saves the mother. (If I was raped, I would carry the baby and give it up for adoption - I will not kill. I refuse. Period.)
[04] Do you think the world would fail with a female president?
Uhm. Being female or male, black, white, hispanic, whatever - has NOTHING to do with intelligence, or leadership capabilities.
[05] Do you believe in the death penalty?
Lemme say this again: I will not kill. I refuse. I do not believe it is our place to judge whether or not someone deserves to die. (I do think our prison system needs a reworking though)
[06] Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Sigh. Yeah. Whatever. If alcohol is legal, marijuana should be too. Seriously.
[07] Are you for or against premarital sex?
Against, but...I won't go beating someone silly over it because I HAVE had sex before marriage. I REGRET IT. But I understand the temptation (and I'm talking about with future I-have-a-ring-on-my-finger husband). What I won't stand is the people who go out and have sex just to have sex. That's just - urrrgh strangle-worthy.
[08] Do you believe in God?
Ahem *clears throat*
I believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen. I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven: By the power of the Holy Spirit, he was born of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered, died and was buried. On the third day he rose again in fulfillment of the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshipped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. I believe in the one holy catholic and apostolic church. I acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
[09] Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
Ehhh I'm really iffy on this. Marriage is a Sacrament in my Church between a man and a woman. That is the way marriage is defined. However, I do believe same sex should be allowed the same legal rights. And it's up to a church whether or not they will accept their marriage or will marry them. I mean, seriously, they're decision; I won't go tell them what to do but I don't want to be told that my belief has to accept it.
[10] Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA?
That's a weird way to phrase that question. I would not care if they would mind coming here LEGALLY and LEGALLY become a citizen - then they could bring all the family and I wouldn't give a shit. If they're that desperate, what's stopping them from doing it legally? I mean, seriously. Become a citizen and join us. Don't ruin our economy by taking your earnings back to your country. The thing is that money is supposed to circulate, not run off to a different part of the world! Jeez!
[11] A twelve year old girl has a baby; should she keep it?
Again, odd way to phrase a question. She should have the baby and give it up for adoption (even if she was raped). If she willingly had sex, the act of giving birth and having a life in her arms MIGHT make her see the bigger picture. Of course, if she's a spoiled brat like the millions of teenage girls out there - then she's a spoiled brat and the world is all about her and the life she gives birth to probably won't make a difference (but that chance would be wonderful). Should she raise it? By herself? Nah. And it should be up to her parents whether or not to keep the baby or give it up to adoption (oh yeah, btw, can we make it easier to adopt children kk thx? A home is better than NO home, agreed?)
[12] Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen?
Yes. But we already tried that in some such amendment. And then two or three amendments later decided to raise it back up to 21. Heh.
[13] Should the war in Iraq be called off?
Tough one. I hate killing. I hate "war." But if it saves twice, three, four, ten times the amount of lives... C'mon people join the armed forces and know the chances. Seriously. It's what our military is there for. Do we need to pull out now? Ah. I don't know enough about the current situation beyond the fact that April - 18 deaths - was the highest death toll since September (22 or 25 deaths). Now, should we call off the War on Terror? No. No. No. And no.
[14] Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree?
Yes? Do you understand by hate of killing? I will not agree with killing anyone, anytime, any place, PERIOD. Killing is killing is killing is killing. At least I'm consistent in that concept.
[15] Do you believe in spanking your children?
Hellz yes. Spank. Yell. Send them to their rooms. After a certain point, spanking becomes pointless (like, the hell you can't spank a teenager and expect it to work - but then again, people have been trying to figure out how to raise teenagers since the first child hit that age gap).
[16] Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?
No. I'm proud to be an American.(where at least I know I'm free) And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me. And I'll gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today. Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land. God Bless the U.S.A. America is STILL a DAMN GOOD COUNTRY. It doesn't matter WHAT anyone tells me. (Besides, a million dollars. I want to earn that, not get it so cheaply and at such a great cost as to symbolize hatred for a country I don't hate).
[17] Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama?
McCain. He has more damn experience. I don't give a shit how he talks; I like his views a lot more, I trust him a lot more and at least he doesn't rely on a teleprompter for every one of his speeches. (Still, I liked Huckabee a LOT more)
(Oh and don't mind the little bouncing red thing - I just wanted an excuse to use that word)
