lovely survey--i have opinions and these are them

[01] Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey? Sure.

[02] Would you do meth if it was legal? No. Drugs = addiction.

[03] Abortion: for or against it ? I think abortion is wrong unless the mother or child are going to die if it is kept. Mental illness pregnant people…idk about that one. Rape---abortion is bad. Think of how pumped you’d be if you found out your mom still had you even though she was raped. It totally sucks, and if you need to you should give it up for adoption, but in general abortion = murder. BUT BUT BUT, I don’t think abortion should be illegal. Facing facts, a lot of people don’t feel the same way i do. Abortion happens—whether its illegal or not. If abortion were illegal then people would go to unsafe, unregulated means that are WAY more dangerous.

[04] Do you think the world would fail with a female US president? Basically. I know that sounds really sexist….and it is, lol. I tend not to trust females in leadership positions.

[05] Do you believe in the death penalty? Yeah. I figure if we don’t know what do with them, God can figure it out up there.

[06] Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already? I think so. I mean, I bet we’d do less drugs if it were legal, you know ? People would be more responsible about it if it were legal.

[07] Are you for or against premarital sex ? Against. Sexual desire is a Godgiven trait that is made to be expressed between a man and a woman in marriage.

[08] Do you believe in God ? I sure do…I’ve mentioned Him a few times already.

[09] Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized ? Okay, here goes. I’m all for gay rights. I think that it is terrible when people discriminate because of a person’s lifestyle. So what if they’re gay ? They are still children of God ! Gayness does not = bad people. Gayness doesn’t equal anything besides homosexual attraction. Go ahead and live your life the way that you want…but don’t call it marriage. Marriage is a divine institution started by God when he put Adam and Eve together. Marriage is between a man and a woman with the intention of having a family. I also believe that gay couples should not adopt. Children need both a male and female role model. There are some things that women are better at with kids, and some things that men are better at with kids.

[10] Do you think it's wrong that so many immigrants are moving into the country ? Immigrants are fun. Immigrants are responsible for a huge part of American culture. But for crying out loud, can you learn English ? If you want to come to my country there are a few things that you need to do for me to like you :
A) learn the language. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but most people speak English round these parts. I’m not asking for you to be proficiently amazing, but at least try to speak the freakin’ language.
B) Respect my religion. I know that I’m Christian. I don’t care what you are, but don’t ask for God to be taken away from the pledge or the nickels, don’t get all offended when everybody celebrates Christmas instead of Chanukkah or Ramadan. (I know I spelled Hannukah wrong. I’m not Jewish, sorry !) Channukah ? oh well.
C) Don’t force your culture on me. I should not be required to learn spanish for you and me to become friends. I like Cinco de Mayo, but I don’t have to celebrate it at school.
…and then we can be friends !

[11] A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it ? 12 = YOUNG ! WTF is a 12-y-old girl doing having sex in the first place ? Lame. Potential rape victim, I guess. That totally sucks. That is a stinky situation. I think adoption is the best way to go. Maybe if the girls mom wants to care for the grandbaby, that’s fine. I mean, a lot of moms are still having kids when their children are 12 anyway.

[12] Should the alcohol age be kept at 21? Haha, this is probably the one thing I agree with Becca on. Alcohol age could be 44 or 2 for all the difference it’ll do me. My granddad was an alcoholic and I do NOT want anything close to that near my home. Alcohol = NO. As for going to parties with alcohol there are 4 excellent reasons why you shouldn’t go. 1 : you’ll give the appearance that you are okay with it. …and I’m not. 2 : The severity with which you view the situation will diminish. If you go to parties with alcohol you could blow it off as laughing at your drunk friends, when once you felt that it was damaging to society.

[13] Should the war in Iraq be called off? Its kinda like when your room is so messy that you don’t know where to start cleaning it up so you never do so your mom eventually has to clean it up for you so you don’t get nasty diseases from mold spores…Iraq…was a mistake. I don’t know where to start cleaning it up, but the USA doesn’t have a mom so….F-.

[14] Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree? Um…I’ve been suicidal a lot in my past. Suicide is a bad thing and we should be trying to help in any way we can to prevent it. Assisted suicide is a terrible thing. I’ve thought about asking my friends to kill me and stuff and to think what would have happened if I had asked and they would have been like « okay, where’s the gun ? » I DONT THINK SO. Illegal YES.

[15] Do you believe in spanking your children ? I think i should poke my children with a cattle prod because electric shock has proven to be the most effective stimulus in learning new behaviors with lab rats…yeah spanking is okay as long as you’re not psychotic.

[16] Would you burn your countries flag for a million dollars? As much as I like America, I am super-broke. Like superbad, only superbroke. I’d take the $.

[17] Who do you think would have made a better US president? McCain or Obama ? Obama. McCain seemed too complacent and jeez, America needs CHANGE.

[18] What is the biggest problem with society that needs to be dealt with? I think that people need to learn how to love, and to express that love. I think that if everyone recognized everyone else as sons and daughters of God instead of whatever group they are a part of. I hate it when someone starts out a sentence with « The gays » or « The mormons » or « Catholics » or « black people » or any other group. There are so many difference in each of these groups that it is impossible to say one thing about all of them, or even define who they are. Well, okay, black people is pretty cut and dry when it comes to are you or aren’t you, but every individual is just that—individual—and cannot be defined by sexual orientation, or religion, or race, or political views.

[19] Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers? Come what judgments may. I know what I know. I’m just trying to figure stuff out. I’m not trying to tell someone how to think. I’m just telling people how I personally think. I know people think differently than I do and that’s okay. They’re still awesome.
