Abortion just kills sperm…right?

Well, that's what one professing liberal TV comedy writer says. Granted, he was likely being facetious. But it wouldn't surprise me if he was confused.  I have yet to meet an abortion defender who actually knows that according to science -- embryologists and biologists, not priests and ministers … [Read more...]

“Consensus” on man made global warming?

The American Meteorological Society (AMS) has released its preliminary report surveying its members views about global warming.  The survey did not find the consensus so often boasted by climate change alarmists. Here are a few interesting points from the summary: Only 89% of members of the AMS … [Read more...]

If only those greedy CEOs didn’t make so much, the employees could make a better wage. Not really

Every so often someone will make some noise about how the greedy CEOs make too much and the workers don't make enough.  If people would only do the math themselves, they might not repeat this vacant charge. To begin with, the median CEO salary in the US is only $750,000.  Usually when people … [Read more...]

Good intentions often lead to bad laws

When Connecticut first passed new restrictions limiting magazine capacity for guns, I was able to demonstrate in just over a minute why in at least one aspect it was hastily planned.  It just now occurred to me that it's even worse than I had first thought. Limiting magazine capacities to 10 rounds … [Read more...]

Double standards for the parents of unwanted children

Of all the defenses of elective abortion, the most abhorrent of all is that the child will be unwanted which subjects the child to possible abuse and neglect.  Shouldn't we expect parents to care for and not abuse or neglect their children whether they're wanted or not?  Why do we give a person who … [Read more...]

Mass shootings laying the ground work for anti-gun activists

The shooting at Los Angeles International Airport is only the most recent event that will inevitably trigger a demand for stricter gun laws.  The move to rush through intention-driven, emotionally reactive laws in response to these kinds of tragedies may prove to be even more dangerous, and possibly … [Read more...]

The case against man-caused climate change (formerly known as global warming because...it isn't) gets weaker every day.(DailyMail) -- The 17-year pause in global warming is likely to last into the 2030s and the Arctic sea ice has already started to recover, according to new research.A paper in the … [Read more...]

Climate activism, not climate change, is dangerous

Then Senator John Kerry was preaching the apocalyptic dangers of 'climate change' a mere 4 years ago. He claimed there would be no Arctic ice at the pole this past summer.  He was wrong.  Like so many climate activists he assured us that the climate was changing at dangerous rates and needs … [Read more...]

If you think pink is a ‘girl color’ you hate gay people…or something

At least that's what this graphic floating around the internet suggests. If I was the doctor I'd have asked why the little boy wanted a pink cast, and I wouldn't have turned red or felt bad about asking.  I'm not fully convinced this is based on a true story in the first place.  But even if … [Read more...]

Gay waiter gets the shaft at local restaurant

Pardon my juvenile attempt at an inappropriate pun.  Apparently a waiter who looked sufficiently gay was allegedly short-changed by some customers because of his apparent sexual preference. (WFSB) -- A 20-year-old waiter provided exemplary service at an Overland Park Italian restaurant, but his … [Read more...]

Parental notification for abortion

Where ever you find yourself on the abortion debate, I would think that requiring parental notification for elective abortion should be a bipartisan stance.  Opponents of the requirement often cite assaults or even murders of teen girls who confessed to their parents that they are pregnant, which is … [Read more...]

Record low extreme weather in 2013 despite record high CO2

The CO2 levels in the Earth's atmosphere hit record high this year averaging at 400 ppm (parts per million).  Climate change activists -- formerly known as global warming activists until the Earth stopped warming -- have been claiming that with the rise of CO2 comes the rise of extreme weather … [Read more...]

Pro-Choice vs. Pro-Abortion

When I discuss abortion and reference the pro-choice side of the issue, I use the term abortion defender.  It doesn't (shouldn't) come across as confrontational, poisonous, and accurate.  I understand defenders of the right to elective abortion tend to prefer the term pro-choice.  Many of those who … [Read more...]

If abortion isn’t about what is in the womb, then…

Most arguments defending a mother's right to an an elective abortion rarely center around what it is that's being aborted.  It's not frivolous as to why either.  If the discussion takes a turn toward science or biology, they would be forced to admit abortion takes the life of an innocent human … [Read more...]

Elayne Boosler is bad at comedy and science

https://twitter.com/ElayneBoosler/statuses/388775844086181888 Comic past her prime, Elayne Boosler, attempts to mix poor humor with bad science.  Unfortunately for her, it's old news, the argument in support of abortion isn't new.  It confuses stages of development with ontological identity. … [Read more...]

The Political Left’s view of people in one winners and losers bracket

The Political Left views people in groups, not as individuals.  This is why some people are more equal than others and why some people are more valuable than others (i.e., hate crime laws).  In so doing it is then possible to create divides among the people.  People lose their individual identities … [Read more...]
