Should drugs, prostitution, homosexuality be LEGAL? (W/ Christian Commentary)
Ron Paul talks about liberty, and governments role in these issues.
Q:Don’t only drug abusers want drugs legalized?
A: Some drugs like tobacco and alcohol are already legal. Other drugs are not. People don’t have to use drugs to believe everyone has the right to do what they want in their personal lives. Ron Paul (and freedom lovers everywhere) think individual states should decide what is legal on a local level. He has never used drugs.
Q: Why do we need to bother legalizing drugs?
A: One, we’ve spent $500,000,000,000.00 of your tax dollars on the “War on Drugs” Two, our prisons are full of people who’s only crime was possession (small amounts). Why should people get to carry some drugs -tobacco cigarettes, alcohol, prescription- and not others like marijuana cigarettes. Three, billions of dollars in drug sales would become legal, taxable, and regulated.
Q:Wouldn’t legalizing drugs result in an epidemic?
A: No more than the country already has with tobacco and alcohol. Besides, any state could still make drugs illegal or regulated..and NOBODY wants to make any drugs legal for minors.
Q: Prostitution is immoral, how can we legalize it?
A: Prostitution happens in all 50 states and is legal in most of Nevada. It has always existed and will always exist in this world. The one exception is in Nevada, where it is legal, it is regulated and there are no pregnancies, STD,s or abuses/murders of prostitutes. It is also then taxable income. Yes, no prostitution is the most moral, but legal prostitution is much more moral then illegal prostitution. YOU CANNOT LEGISLATE RIGHTEOUSNESS! Once people realize they have only their creator to answer to, they weigh out their decisions more carefully. Police and courts are respected authorities and just lead to further abuses of the system. Not to mention we pay millions to arrest and imprison these people… that’s money that could go to feeding the hungry, strengthening families, and preventing such lifestyles.
Q: Why should homosexuals get to be married?
A: I hate to answer a question with a question but, should the government regulate love??? I have very strong, conservative feelings on marriage. I believe God invented marriage, not man. I believe marriage is literally two becoming one.. a supernatural event. Only God can truly marry people, that is, one man and one woman. I even feel that couples should consider a single life unless they can serve God better married, or they are burning with passion. BUT! Those are my PERSONAL and SPIRITUAL beliefs… not political. In the end I have to answer to God for my life, not politicians, not any other human. I do not want God to ask me “Why did you become the middle man when I was trying to talk to someone.
Q: Isn’t this supporting homosexuality?
A: I am not a homosexual, nor am I pro-abortion.. but I am a liar, and prideful, given to gluttony, prone to wander, selfish at times.. should I be allowed to marry? Remember it is written
‘Leave room for God’s vengence’
‘It is mine to avenge says the Lord’ ‘Leave room for Gods wrath’
‘Do not Judge – for the same measure you use to judge will be used against you’
