I would argue that the correct way should be for a philosophical explanation rather than a scientific approach. There are many truths which can be proven philosophically but cannot be tested empirically. Surely that does not make them less important? - Cho Fri, 23 May 2008 16:14:44 +0100 http://www.adamsmith.org/blog/justice-and-civil-liberties/religious-arguments-200805221426/#comment-275 Except of course, one might expect a religious argument to hold sway in a state with an established religion, of which the sovereign, in whose name the government supposedly acts, is the Supreme Governor. Of course it's more complicated in a nation composed of several countries, only one of which has a state religion. - Tom Davis Thu, 22 May 2008 12:51:00 +0100 http://www.adamsmith.org/blog/justice-and-civil-liberties/religious-arguments-200805221426/#comment-270 "I agree, from my point of view my God's "policies" need to stand up to sound logic and reason, invoking the "because I said so" style of parenting isn't something that an Almighty God should do too often I agree with the Church that abortion shouldn't happen, it the big institutions need to come up with a solution AND be prepared to house a lot of unwanted kids Realistically for the Church to say to people stop having abortions they should then say we can find a family to look after your baby. The sensible way to do that is for Christians to adopt rather than breed!!" - Guy Cross Thu, 22 May 2008 10:31:10 +0100
