I think we should call it: pro- off and mind your own business.
then we would have to change from pro-life to "you gonna have that baby even if you got raped by a werewolf"

Pro-women's choice is better.

There is all sorts of birth control. When a girl reaches puberty find out what birth control is best,safest,easiest and put her on it. When they hit 18 the girl can decide for herself if she wants to go on or off it. If they have something for the boys do the same.I know Obama wants to teach kids about sex when they hit kindergarten (haha-idiot) but wait until they are atleast 12-13.
Woman should have the right for abortion. Many reasons why.Only example I will give is rape. A 14 year old girl raped by her grandfather should have the right to abort the baby.
I've been wondering where boutons went..............now I know.
that. I don't know who that thinks she is telling me or anybody else, in an extremely vindictive, stupid way, that we've rejected God wholesale. That's a pretty ed up, ultra personal, accusation to make about someone you know nothing about. That stupid and her ing simple-minded take on my Christianity are an affront of unheralded proportion. you angel luv.
Angel Luv annoys me as much as she annoys everyone else, but I think you're getting a touch worked up on a message board dedicated to the Spurs don't you?
maybe that's where you should start.
The Brothers Karamazov is badass, but I dont think reading passages like The Grand Inquisitor will help you any spiritually...
I suggest looking into Buddhism to start off, and then apply it to all the religions, and you'll find a striking connection between everything. after all, the horrible aspects of religion are brought on by the extremists, so don't listen to them. remember that everything is one big illusion, and to find "God," you have to peel the illusion back.
Maybe. But why is someone a message board dedicated to the Spurs sitting back and making accusations about my relationship with God. If she wanted to discuss the politics of abortion, in a thread about the politics of abortion, that's one thing, but she didn't do that. And then she starts judging my life? On a meta-physical level? Nah, I take that serious and it ain't happening without me saying something. And I'm definitely not taking it from some brain-washed, fundamentalist weirdo.
3rd day in office and firing missles into Pakistan. Nice job Obama. Looks like he listened to Bush. I like it. Welcome to the fight.
Wrong thread sorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry![]()

It pisses me off the way The Grand Inquisitor is often cited to buttress atheistic arguments. I read it as an affirmation of Christ. Anybody who doesn't is missing the point of the ending, IMHO. Whether that helps or not meta-physically, is evident, but it at least provides the illusion of spiritual growth and in a real way, a refined level of religious awareness. When nothing connects on a spiritual level, sometimes the intellectual is all you got.
edit: but I agree, if/when I pick up religious study again, I'll be looking eastward.

actually i do too - how he patiently says nothing, listens, and ends with a kiss, but i think it takes a truly open-minded person to realize the symbolism behind it, and i wouldn't recommend it to anybody. it is as it is, and that's dark literature. most would take all of the negative aspects of the Church from the passage and totally disregard the underlying meaning. id start with eastern philosophy to build a sturdy foundation then tackle russian literature, so it would be easier to kind of connect the dots.
Yeah it also says that the kingdom of Heaven is inside you. So that's my answer. I don't need Jesus or anything else. It's all in me. Forever.
I like how you quoted the Book of Genesis regarding on how not to abort babies. I think it's ridiculous and absurd that you use the Bible to justify your views on anything.
I can just as easily point to a passage where it explicity describes a happy person killing a baby...
Psalm 137:8-9
O Babylon, you will be destroyed.
Happy is the one who pays you back
for what you have done to us.
Happy is the one who takes your babies
and smashes them against the rocks!
Today's International babies can be tomorrow's terrorist.
I see what he did here.![]()
There's actually a fair amount of argument in feminist circles about the term "pro-choice" because it implies that every woman who gets pregnant is (socially, economically, politically, etc.) in a position of making that choice, which often isn't the case.
Do you feel duped that Bush had eight years to address the abortion issue and nothing happened?
I think there are a lot of voters like you, but I believe your efforts would be best served using your first amendment rights to appeal to public opinion on abortion through protest or other means, than wasting your vote on a wedge issue that politicians sucker you in to thinking they care to do anything about.
Contrast between the Messiah and Obamamessiah.
History tells us that Jesus gave life to many who were dead.
History will tell us that Obama’s executive order gave death to many who were living.
It was expected.
Well, not really. I mean, they can be formed in a test tube inside a lab. Is it ok to abort those?
That is an excellent question.
Nothing? Did you read the article Spurminator?
He re-ins uted the ban on the "Mexico City policy".
In addition to that he appointed Supreme Court Justices Alito and Roberts, and it wouldn't be a stretch to suggest that both would vote to overturn Roe v. Wade if it were to come up for a vote.
These actions by President Bush have to be recognized as major and significant decisions for the Right to Life movement.
Are there other things he could have done to show his support for the rights of the unborn that he refrained from?
So in your opinion it's wrong to abort the baby at day 95, but at day 94 (end of the first trimester) it's fine and dandy?
What happened in that 1 day, from 94 to 95, that made it wrong?
