sorry. i was out robbing widows and orphans this weekend.

it's called 'eminent domain.'

i think sexual assault would be the other term you seek.

as for the legal/moral issue in the law, it's too subjective for anyone to determine, as you should know. if indeed, we would have a common ground in say, faith, there might be some fundamentals. but that is long long gone. we can only remain effective by working with what we have.

now,can i refuse cases based upon my moral views? of course. can i work for terri schiavo on moral grounds? of course.

You are right. Somebody else called me a facist. You used, I think, "disgusting." That's different.

heh heh, close, but not quite the same. I also did not call you disgusting.

Well, THAT'S good to know.

Ditto.

You presume too much. After all, there IS an objective morality, and it IS based on the same Golden Rule western religions are.

Devastating. Demoralizing. Despicable. Un-American

And I can only add "very frightened" to your list. In our situation I would only be more frightened if we lived on a waterfront.

Does that mean that my county may seize my proerty if they want to erect a hotel in place of my house?

Or how about a bunch of high-priced condos, so they can fit more tax paying citizens per square foot of land?
