Kind of goes to show why some of us would like a bit more assurance in regards to Ms. Miers. I mean if the Gipper could have one come out this badly . . .

I believe your interpretation is correct as with Ex 21:12. "Kill" in the first instance of Ex 20:13 meaning an action, rather than as a punishment for the act itself, i. e., "put to death." Does that make sense to you.

If you are saying what I think you are saying yes. The bible makes it abundantly clear that execution of those who murder is allowed. It also makes it abundantly clear that if you murder you shall be executed (Put to death).

The key point is that execution is ONLY allowed for those who are guilty. The bible condemns strongly the shedding of innocent blood Which makes abortion even more of an abomination as it sheds much innocent blood.

Missouri state law forbids spending tax dollars to facilitate an abortion. However, U.S. District Judge Dean Whipple ruled Thursday that the prison system was blocking the woman from exercising her right to an abortion and ordered that the woman be taken to the clinic Saturday.

Judge Whipple should realize that a prisoner has already been deprived of freedom of movement. Depriving a prisoner of the "right" to kill her child is hardly an imposition.

Because judges have gutted the husband's rights out of the marriage contract by elevating a personal right of privacy over the rights and duties of a freely entered into contract.

The laws are now a bizarre patchwork. An unmarried woman cannot put a baby up for adoption without the biological father's consent, yet a married woman can abort her husband's child without his consent.

Basically enforcing an non-existant contract in the first instance and voiding a signed one in the second.

Yeah, this is a typical abortion scenario.

If Bush and the Republicans had any balls they would expand the number of circuits to 11 along with 11 justices and appoint the balance.

Seven to four has a nice ring to it.
