Greetings Arlo,
Forgetting for the moment our various disagreements regarding the proper
role in the curriculum of Intelligent Design and questions about the
Indian population, I'd like to know on what foundation you base the
morality of the following social values:
> Because I don't consider it a perjorative. Nor do I consider myself a

> suffrage, workmen's compensation, and fair labor wages to the citizens. I
> recognize that it is "liberals" who fight for environmental protections,
> universal healthcare, improving access to higher education and equal public
> schools for the poor, multi-cultural education, and equal state benefits
> for all individuals. These are all things I am proud to support, and
> consider quite moral.
In your view are these things moral on religious grounds, or on some other
basis?
Thanks,
Platt
