I always choose to help someone. That isn't what we were talking about. It is the right to make that choice that is the topic of the conversation - not the choice. Making the right choice is something you learn, part of who you are, not a law that someone passed who thought they knew better than I what choice I should make. That is the same justification people use when they outlaw marijuana, beer, gay marriages, abortion and flag burning. "They couldn't make the right choice, so we made it for them."
Yes, and I appreciate that we are different. Aside from the almost violent differences we have in ideology and the petty attacks that come from it during the discussions, you are ok by me. I understand your position and thought process on it, I just don't agree with it and can't envision myself ever changing my mind on it.
