Reader comment on: Fatherhood.gov

Submitted by DeserveLiberty (United States), Jun 24, 2010 08:46

Undoubtedly, today there is a federal bureaucrat designing a multi-million dollar "program," complete with website and call-in 1-800 number, that will provide precise instructions on when and how to use toilet paper. Next: implementation of an inspection "program" to ensure that the "suggested" procedures and specifications are followed.

Fatherhood.gov is not about helping families. It is about intrusion of government into the personal and intimate lives of citizens and the usurpation of the roles and responsibilities of families and parents. It is about implementation of an agenda to replace church with government, replace morality with fiat law, and replace God with the most highly "evolved" snake-oil politician/tyrant that comes upon the scene. The underlying message of Fatherhood.gov is that "the government" is the better designer and manager of your life, and of the lives of your children.

Without the existence of a morality external to the physical existence of humanity, man can define "morality" as anything that his power and imagination desires. Are you ready for that?
