>Yet the Republican platform, which supports “the rights of parents to determine the proper medical treatment and therapy for their minor children,” would support my parents’ decision to send me away.
They can give you away at any point thru adoption. The democrats would like you to be aborted so they can use your parts. Welcome to the world of suffering, now that you know what you don't like, try not inflicting it on others. Your parents' retardation and/or indoctrination is not political nor religious, rather intellectual in nature. We don't get to choose our parents, at least not that I am aware of, but we can choose our own behavior and attitude. The time is now, make the most of it while you have it. Living in the past where everyone is making mistakes and doing stupid things to one another does nothing good for you now.
