But I contend that it is up to the individual to make that choice. One person should not arrogantly order another person's life for them.

What "choice" is that, specifically?

ask Trinity-does not the Church "order another persons life" all the time? Does she not place limits and rules in place?-or is certain areas exempt? (GOP, Limbaugh, capitalism, nationalism)

No one has the right to do evil. Government has the duty to enforce God's laws. A government that does not enforce God's laws is unjust. Governments cannot be neutral, they must be biased on the side of God, making it easy for their people to be good and making it difficult for them to be evil. Parents do not give their children vegetables and poison and ask them to choose what they want to eat for dinner. They "arrogantly order" their children to eat their vegetables.

Although "the Chuirch" is not "one person". I still don't know what this is all about.

The "one person" I was referring to was Belloc. He was bashing Myrna for listen to Glenn Beck. There's more to the story, but that is enough for a reference. According to Belloc, one may only listen to those he approves of.
