My condolences. It’s truly a sad thing when a parent must bury a child!
You never know how things will work out! I put down my little web surfer after I posted my last to you, then opened my Bible and the little devotional book, “Our Daily Bread,” and just what was today’s topic, but about two families who had lost teenaged daughters unexpectedly. The scripture was Psalm 37:23-26, where the Psalmist speaks of God upholding the righteous in His hands,especially during times of sorrow and trouble. May He uphold you and yours in this time of sorrow!
Awww...Your daughter had a good voice. That’s a nice tribute and something you’ll always have. You’re in my prayers and so is your daughter’s friend. I’m sure that is something she will live with for the rest of her life.
Killing humans is not life-saving. Also, it seems this only prohibits the patenting of the process.
What the judges have ruled is it is fine to kill humans...but it is not fine to save humans, when we’re trying to kill them. If life extending drugs were actually created, then state owned lives could be extended and we’re trying to KILL THE HEALTHCARE HOGS and we’re trying to get the point across of JUST SAY NO TO DRUGS FOR OLD BAGS...we MUST depopulate the world:

Dear FRiend,
I am so sorry for your tragedy, but your faith and compassion are an inspiration to us all.
The last six months of my life have been a nightmare I lost my husband to suicide, My beloved Dad to Heart Disease, my HEALTH to diabetes, and my Mom, who managed to break her BACK at my dad’s funeral, is in a Rehab hospital right now.
BUT! FR has always been there for me, with pages and pages of prayers, condolence cards, and dear friendships that will last a lifetime.
Prayers up for Melissa, who must be devastated.
No, you did not hijack this thread. The remarks that followed your post are indicative of the meaning of life itself, and very relevant to the original topic. A reminder that “embryos” are potential human beings, with everything that goes with that.
(((HUGS)))
That's amazing, if things are as they appear.
Even broken clocks are right twice a day, and sometimes the leftists get things right for wrong motives.
It's part of why we as conservatives need to be always alert for ways we can make temporary coalitions with people who are long-term problems to accomplish individual objectives on which we can agree.
Evangelical Protestants and Roman Catholics have long been used to working together to fight abortion, despite major differences on critical issues. Maybe in Europe, the Greens, for their own reasons, have a share in the fight against using babies as research objects. After all, we've been complaining for years that the envirowackos love baby seals more than baby humans, and perhaps on this point Greenpeace is going to be consistent in defending life of baby mammals, even if they happen to be humans ;-)
sounds like good news, but am a bit puzzled because I thought they had wide open abortion throughout the EU.
Perhaps the court has had new appointments, or perhaps one or some of the judges accepted Christ?
Wow. Your life has certainly been rough the past 6 months. We’ll be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers as well. Life can be difficult sometimes, but if we meet it with support from His strength, we get through.
If this is true, I may have to send them a check.
AMEN TO THAT!
Goodness FRiend, you didn’t tell me you had diabetes too on top of everything. More prayers up for you FRiend (and for your mom) during this difficult year.
So true.
It Is Well With My Soul
When peace like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to know,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
Refrain:
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:
If Jordan above me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life,
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.
But Lord, 'tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,
The sky, not the grave, is our goal;
Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord!
Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul.
And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.
-Horatio Spafford
(This hymn was written after several traumatic events in Spafford’s life. The first was the death of his only son in 1871 at the age of four, shortly followed by the great Chicago Fire which ruined him financially (he had been a successful lawyer). Then in 1873, he had planned to travel to Europe with his family on the SS Ville du Havre, but sent the family ahead while he was delayed on business concerning zoning problems following the Great Chicago Fire. While crossing the Atlantic, the ship sank rapidly after a collision with a sailing ship, the Loch Earn, and all four of Spafford's daughters died. His wife Anna survived and sent him the now famous telegram, "Saved alone . . .". Shortly afterwards, as Spafford traveled to meet his grieving wife, he was inspired to write these words as his ship passed near where his daughters had died.)
Yes. It was running rampant and undetected. I had no idea. It was what made me so deathly sick about a month ago.
Sugar, rice, potatoes, pasta, starch, certain fruits, Soda pop, bread, muffins, cake, bagels, cantaloupe, watermelon, corn, cornmeal, tacos, ketchup, BBQ Sauce, Real Ice Cream, Flavored Yogurt, peas (no big loss!), and anything bleached or white in color. DANG!
BUT...I have lost 15 pounds already, so the LORD works in mysterious ways.
Last time I checked embryonic stems cells and embryonic stem cell research had not saved or improved a single life.
Adult stem cells on the other hand have saved lives.
Embryonic Stem Cell research was abandoned in the early 1980’s because the new technology of Adult and Umbilical Cord research garnered results.
My goodness, Zeugma, I am so sorry. God have mercy.
