Alot of you miss the point!This is about using influence to control a vote outcome. If some one crosses that line, they should be held accountable. End of discussion. As for benjamins point," This nation was built on Judeo-Christian values". If that is what those values are you can stick em where the sun dont shine mate. My Education tells me this land was built off the back of whip, on the back of some-one who stole a loaf of bread to feed a family! Probably took the wrong bread, maybe it was for the useless gimmick of bread breaking in some useless church!.Where did Abortion become apart of the discussion?. This was an easy topic to follow and is easier to finalise...Churches have NO place in the governing of a country, They are flat out trying to keep the congregation in control, their own ministers in check, and get too much for nothing already.
P.S. I am only anti-religion...not anti-god....Religion is foul and must really piss God to see them clamour over themselves for self service.(hierachy? that is)
