I went a couple of rounds with him tonight and you be the judge.
Round 1:
Stephen Woodworth @WoodworthMP
Bahais are persecuted in Iran simply because of their religious faith.Why does simple belief seem threatening to some?
Fern Hill @fernhilldammit
@WoodworthMP Because it's not simple belief if the holders of it want to impose their laws on others. Like the Vatican Taliban.
Stephen Woodworth @WoodworthMP
@fernhilldammit I don't think Bahais want to impose anything on anyone.
Fern Hill @fernhilldammit
@WoodworthMP Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Who *does* impose religious values, Mr. Knight of Columbus? #TellAntiChoiceMPsEverything
I don't know if I knocked him out, but that was the end of that.
Round 2:
Stephen Woodworth @WoodworthMP
It is a simple truth that no law is legitimate that claims any human being is not human.Not for any ideology.Not for any policy.
This, by the way, is his only 'reason' for reopening the abortion debate.
Fern Hill @fernhilldammit
@WoodworthMP Hasn't that Tautology 101 course I ordered for you arrived yet?
And that was the end of that one.
You know, for all that we say Fuck the Debate, maybe we should welcome it. Be a lot like shooting fish in a barrel.
But we're not cruel that way, are we?
