And what a great gift.... http://firstread.nbcnews.com/_news/...nt-abortion-to-be-legal?lite&ocid=msnhp&pos=1 As the 40th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision takes place on Tuesday, a majority of Americans for the first time believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases, according to a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll. Whats more, seven in 10 respondents oppose Roe v. Wade being overturned, which is the highest percentage on this question since 1989. These are profound changes, says Republican pollster Bill McInturff, who conducted this survey with Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart and his colleagues.
On this 40th anniverary of the Supreme Court ruling known as Roe v. Wade allowing for essentially unfettered access to abortion on demand, please pray for the 55 million human lives terminated. Pray for them and consider the great loss to our nation. Almighty God, our Father, you who have given us life and intended us to have it forever, grant us your blessings. Enlighten our minds to an awareness and to a renewed conviction that all human life is sacred because it is created in your image and likeness. Help us to teach by word and the example of our lives that life occupies the first place, that human life is precious because it is the gift of God whose love is infinite. Give us the strength to defend human life against every influence or action that threatens or weakens it, as well as the strength to make every life more human in all its aspects. Give us the grace... When the sacredness of life before birth is attacked, to stand up and proclaim that no one ever has the authority to destroy unborn life. When a child is described as a burden or is looked upon only as a means to satisfy an emotional need, to stand up and insist that every child is a unique and unrepeatable gift of God, a gift of God with a right to a loving and united family. http://www.catholicdoors.com/prayers/english/p02687.htm
<<< MODERATOR EDIT: OFF TOPIC >>> WHO should we pray for and why? People who don't exist? People who died and went to hell???
Feel free to pray....just don't feel free to try to put your beliefs on those who don't share them with the use of a police state. - - - Updated - - - Feel free to pray....just don't feel free to try to put your beliefs on those who don't share them with the use of a police state. - - - Updated - - - Feel free to pray....just don't feel free to try to put your beliefs on those who don't share them with the use of a police state.
Ya, I finally read that rambling blather and it is meant to spread the hate and intolerance towards Pro-Choicers (last two paragraphs)...otherwise WHY post it????
<<< MODERATOR EDIT: OFF TOPIC >>> I didn't view it as hateful, it's certainly full of emotional fallacy though.
God almighty who has allegedly given us life for some reason never explained coherently.. Enlighten my mind as to why some of your creations want to rule other's lives. Could you explain to them your sin of Pride? They seem to wallow in it. Could you explain to them the idea of "walking a mile in someone else's shoes". Could you explain to them your idea about throwing the first stone? Could you explain to them the idea of kindness and compassion ? Will they never "get it"? Could you explain how much you love spreading hate towards those they don't agree with? Oh, you don't?! Then tell your followers how nasty that is. Could you tell them why you cause so many abortions? And , above all, could you call their attention to the fact that you don't pay any attention to "prayers".... Thanks!
What a disgusting post. Do you celebrate the anniversary of the Holocaust too? I don't care if this gets deleted. It's an accurate comparison, and it needs to be said. The two are one and the same. Celebrating abortion is no different than celebrating the Holocaust or slavery. It's sick. It exposes a blatant disrespect for human life.
I'm glad at least 70% of Americans don't agree with that ridiculous rant Oh wait! Were you addressing my post or Felicity's???
Democrats also thought the idea that blacks were people was ridiculous not too long ago. You guys don't really change much. You just change who you are oppressing and the bull(*)(*)(*)(*) rationalizations you use to justify it. You guys are appallingly selfish.
Funny how the two parties have switched placed over the last 100 years, isn't it? Now the Republican party doesn't consider most non-White as "worthy" of belonging to their party, and also excludes any woman who "doesn't know her place . . .as second, in the kitchen, and horizontal or pregnant" and is doing their best to refuse civil rights to the gay population! While the Democrats are fighting to include EVERYONE and to protect and recognize the civil liberties and human rights of all (including minorities, women, and gay people! What ever happened to you guys? You really got screwed up by the bigoted hyper religious Right, didn't you? Too bad. . .no wonder you want to live in the glorious past that was yours. . .and escape the shameful present that the "tail that wags the dog" is imposing on you!
You know, a leading pioneer in pediatric surgery noted that 95% of all abortions performed are just for convenience sake. that would be C. Everett Koop, M.D, And he is adamantly pro-life.
How does he know? Obviously, if he is so "adamantly pro-life" he doesn't have to perform abortions. . . so how does he know why women go to a doctor to get an abortion? It's very much like the "celibate" priests trying to tell us about sexual practices, birth control, and parenting!
Nope. You forget that abortion is the epitome of selfishness. It's saying to the child, "I'm more important than you so you don't deserve to live". Hitler would be so proud of the pro aborts right now. Oh, and did you know your heroine, Margarat Sanger, was an avowed racist and supporter of eugenics?
There is no "CHILD" in early abortions! There is merely the "potential" for a child! Just as. . .if you want to eat chicken, you probably wouldn't be satisfied with eating an egg!
LOL! A good dose of hyperbole (complete with the Loser's Hitler Reference) and outright lies....gee, that's so persuasive...
55,000,000 F.I.F.T.Y.-F.I.V.E.-MILLION In years, that number would take you back to the end of the Paleocene period. I'm kinda sickened that my thread was merged with a thread called "happy anniversary rvw" --but not as sickened as this true atrocity of human destruction that is abortion makes me. Such a sad and horrific thing to celebrate.
Your thread did not have a topic to discuss. And honestly, considering the fast rate that our population is growing it is probably a good thing that many people have not been born. If they were we would be leaving an even bigger carbon footprint on the world and continue destroying this planet at an even faster rate than we already are. Eventually this world will be in no state for human life to survive in if we continue to grow as a species at the rate that we are. If it ever gets to that point women will be having abortions left and right just to spare their children the pain and suffering of living in a destitute world. This is very good news. Thank you for sharing Grannie.
Have you even considered what the state of your country would be in if all those 50 million 'babies' had been born?
If a fetus is a child, is that cake batter I have a cake? Is the apple seed on the window ledge an apple tree? It must be.
