I Hate My Own Opinions

THERE ARE TIMES, many times, when i hate my own opinions.

consider steroids. steroids are a scourge of our modern civilization, turning people into freakish, bloated, overly muscular monstrosities, ruining the integrity of athletic competition, destroying lives.

and yet i believe that steroid use should be ignored. i believe that society should do nothing about steroids, other than sit by and watch people ruin themselves and the purity of athleticism.

i believe this because the alternative is to do what we do now; to enter a person's body, examine the chemical contents therein, and then mete out punishment if the contents are unacceptable.
and this is orwellian, this is brave new world, this is a nightmarish science fiction novel come true.

and yet, what else can we do? i would ignore steroids, and do nothing about them, other then to try to talk people out of them.

consider abortion. i believe abortion is murder, murder most foul. we stop it by making it a criminal act. we stop it by giving government the power to control what a woman does with something inside her own body. and this i cannot do.

i would allow that almighty god, in all his infinite power and wisdom, will either allow an abortion to occur, or not. his choice, not ours. god does not always stop atrocities, like war. one can scarcely imagine how many more horrible atrocities god DOES stop, that we never even know about.

drug use destroys lives. criminalizing drug use, and testing for drugs inside the human body, like we do now, is an attempt to deal with this horrible destructive blight.

but i would legalize all drugs, and stop drug testing forthwith. i would not give government the power to tell any citizen what, or what not , to put inside his or her own body.

sometimes, many times, i hate my own opinions...
