I was ignoring his oblique reference to liberals, was pointing out that as far as I’m concerned conservatives would do well to abort the immorality out of their bloodlines.

He, of course, was referring to liberals. The problem is that liberals accept man’s humanity and don’t need to breed it out.

I wasn’t clear, I’ll admit. But TBs snarkiness, as you’d call it, did not escape me. I can track him most of the time. I have problems when he has to ignore the meanings of words, such as “lie”, or “greed”, and simply denies truths which are uncomfortable. But that’s not a lack of understanding, it’s a frustration with a personality which cannot admit anything which might be interpreted as unflattering.

You might ask yourself whose ideological system he might be referring to, and ponder the phrase “eliminate the offspring of people with those thought patterns before they were even born”.

That’s a pretty severely conservative sentiment.

This fellow didn’t learn from others not to handle poisonous snakes, as one would expect. His fater died from it, and he continued the practice. And he still bred. Some female found him attractive enough to breed. Darwin is not operating.

Were Darwin true, tempting snakes would be a turn-off for the bearer of the progeny. Most women, I’d presume, would not want to breed with someone who is liable to pass on one of the dumbest, most ridiculous, inane traits known to modern man.

For it’s a fool’s bet. If you lose, you lose everything. And If you win, you get squat. Zero. Nil.

Leave it to those Christians to thwart Darwin, at their peril.

You might set up an ideological/legal system that would eliminate the offspring of people with those thought patterns before they were even born. Voluntarily.
