If You Believe Life Begins At Conception, How Do You Allow For Abortion?

I understand you point (i don't agree with it) and while I think it is Vicious, at least it's consistent.

This is what puzzles me about the abortion proponents - they don't seem to recognize that every state had a "saving the life of the mother" exemption in their abortion ban.

But that wasn't enough. They wanted a "saving the health of the mother" exemption. That way, virtually any inconvenience, however trivial, could be construed as detrimental to the mother's mental health.

That would make abortion on demand, for whatever reason whatsoever, the law. Anything short of that and the abortion Nazis would fight it with maniacal frenzy.

Here i the real point. Kerry says he believes life begins at conception. He also believes abortion is OK. Kerry believes nuder is OK if someone else's life is inconvenient to another's. That is unacceptable

[Prolifeconservative]

If some moderator in the Presidential debates does not frame this question to Kerry (IF LIFE BEGINS AT CONCEPTION, as you stated, THEN HOW DO YOU SUPPORT ABORTION RIGHTS), then we will have seen Media Bias at it's worse.

It needs to be asked by someone. I know he'll slither out of the question but that's okay, the flip-flop-flim-flam political contortionist will be exposed once again.

When people realize the humanity of the child in the womb—such as when a pregnant woman feels her baby move, or when a couple sees an ultrasound image of their baby—they often change from being pro-abortion to pro-life. In Britain, a BBC documentary showing ultrasound images of babies in the womb sucking their thumbs, moving around, making faces, and otherwise acting like babies, has created something of a sensation. Parliament will soon consider revising the country’s abortion laws—not prohibiting abortions, but allowing them only in the first few weeks after conception, before such uncomfortably human pictures would be possible.

This is one instance in which the enlightened, sophisticated, "evolving" pro-aborts would have us all be Luddites.

The problem is of course that the Black Robed Gods think that that phrase means there is a "saving the SOCIAL life of the mother" exemption in their abortion ban.

I am one too many if you are more ruthless or have a superior immune system.

Satan couldn't say it better.

What does the "9" stand for?

Nine.

You're the Servant of number 9? What does that mean?

[ArrogantBustard]

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

I was wondering if it had any occult significance, considering So9's posts. I found this:

Satanists and the Number Nine

Satanists take delight in the number nine for a couple of reasons. First, Satanists enjoy reversing, mirroring and inverting symbols, letters and numbers. When you turn the number "9" upside down you get "6" which makes up the number of the Beast (666) as revealed in Revelation 13:18 in the Bible. Second, Satanists take perverse pleasure in commemorating the death of Christ and the death of Christ is associated with the number nine. Mark 15: 34-37 reveals that Christ spoke his last words on the Cross of Calvary at the ninth hour and "gave up the ghost (died)."

I have a feeling about this guy, based on his previous posts.

If you are very very lucky, you are completely wrong.

Right idea, wrong novel.

Why not just answer the question? Are you ashamed of it?

[television is just wrong]

John Kerry is trying to be all things to all people. In the process if you listen to him on a consistent level. He makes no sense, and he is not trustworthy.
