Once again, I don't understand what you mean about the polital level not recognizing the fact that people are free to marry and not have kids, and that fact leading to bad policy and undermining the family.
Let's just say there's something peculiar about such a person. Just as there's something peculiar about a person who doesn't like ice cream and Christmas.
I recognize that statement as a subjective opinion. Just as I might think it's peculiar to not like puppies or kittens.
You know, I'm getting a bit tired of being told to stay on topic. This subject was derived from posts that were on topic, and it's difficult to draw the line between what's on and what's off topic. I don't see why it even matters. You know, at the bank when there's nobody in line, some people follow the maze with those felt separators to the "wait here" sign, while others just go straight to the teller box. Sometimes that's ok... no need to stay in line.
