Fuming all night...

Last night I logged in and saw that some one named 'anonymous' had posted to my blog. This happens occasionally. I don't usually post controversial topics so I don't usually get negative feedback. I didn't even mean to post something controversial with my environmental day blog. However, it seems to have gotten someone rather worked up and I am not sure why. Then I posted in retaliation, but I am still thinking about it. I am very confused as to why this person was upset. I didn't tell them what they could or could not do. I believe that recycling is the easiest thing we can do and there really is no excuse not to do it. I didn't tell anyone what to do on their property, I didn't tell anyone to become a vegan, or give up any modern conveniences. And calling me a fascist, that is interesting. Call me a socialist, an environmentalist, but a fascist? So let me be controversial now. I believe health care is a human right. I believe women have the right to choose. I believe in free speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion. I believe church and state have two completely different roles in our life. I believe in taxes. I believe that people are innocent until proven guilty. I believe men and women should be regarded as equals - equal pay, equal rights, equal abilities. I believe global warming is happening. I believe if you are an industrial polluter or a Hummer owner, you should be taxed for it. I believe we all need help now and then. I believe every action has a reaction. I believe in prayer. I believe we can make a difference. So if you want to attack me, get to know me first and please have the guts to post who you are. Comments will have to be approved by me and can not be anonymous. And if you don't know my fellow bloggers attached to this page, leave them out of this. Now, I suppose you can tell me that I told you what to do. If you still can't figure out that we all benefit from living a little bit 'greener' life, then I am sorry. You are no longer hurting yourself but those around you in the long term. I believe if we don't start changing the ways we use energy and consume goods, that there will be a problem in the near future. So why wait until we are forced to recycle and conserve, why pay the higher prices for fuel and products made with petroleum bases, why wait until garbage dumps are located inside city limits, why wait until all children have asthma, why not start now. For those of us that can afford to do so, should.
On another note, my sister comes to visit this weekend so I hope the picture posting problem is fixed soon!
