10 Questions liberals will not be so willing to answer
by Jeffrey Stueber
To John Kerry, former presidential candidate:
- Suppose
you just found out that your mother wanted to abort you when she was
pregnant with you. A friend of
yours faults her for her desire, but you are given the unenviable task of
defending your mother’s desire to abort you. How do you do it?
- Most
people will agree that traditional marriage is sought because of the good
personal effects it has on those who enter into it. Homosexuals desire to partake in
marriage. In what sense can the
“homosexual act” be considered something that will have good personal
effects those who engage in it?
- If you
had a chance to be god and craft society into a more democratic
market-centered decentralized system or a more centralized
government-dominated structure, which would you choose?
- For
what reasons should the rich pay more taxes and what income group must you
fall into the be "the rich"
To Francis Crick and Richard Dawkins:
5. Clearly both of you have written books extolling your
evolutionist ideas. In what way can your
production of these works be nor not be attributed to free choice?
To Michael Moore:
6. How it is that you, a member of the NRA, can remain so
non-violent in the presence of a movement that clearly condones gun ownership
and usage?
To Hillary Clinton:
7. You clearly made a great deal of money during your stock
trades. Is this or is this not
indicative of the activity often portrayed in the 1980’s “decade of greed”?
To Nadine Strossen of the ACLU:
- Would
you advocate allowing Playboy and Penthouse magazines in high schools on
the theory that we cannot distinguish between what is or is not
pornography?
To Steven Pinker, evolutionist:
- How
would you scientifically explain humanist desires toward a religion based
on evolution?

sounded good when I said I had “ten” questions.)
