I am citing God’s rules. By their fruits you will know them.

she revealed she had had an abortion with her former husband

Ooooh, what a creepy way to say that! I suppose, "We had an abortion," is the natural follow-up (linguistically) to, "We're pregnant."

‘Zzz kriton’ = abortion. Stupid spellcheck!

Darn, I'll say!

She regretted her abortion.

When I participated in the Walk For Life in San Francisco a month ago, I was mindful of the most effective signs that participants carried. One of the most effective was one that said, “95% of women who have had abortions regret it” — with some statistical stuff to support it underneath. That sign is what people should be carrying in front of abortion clinics.

Fox News agree with The View saying she’s nothing but a liar. Abortion gives women a new lease on life. Nancy Pelosi agrees. Sandra Fluke says denial of government contraceptives was the real reason she did ended her life.

You may think this makes me “soft’, but I operate on the assumption that a person who takes their own life does so in such a state of mental and emotional desperation they they are not able to be held morally responsible. It is no man’s place to say where the soul of another will spend eternity.

They do so because satan has tricked them into thinking that things will be better if they destroy themselves. Yes, I have compassion for them and am royally ticked that God allows satan to screw with people. The act of hers I have a problem with is killing her child. The act of God’s I have a problem with is allowing the culture to be compromised to the point that people can fall for the lie that killing your child could ever be ok. The whole thing is mess and as Mother Teresa said God has a lot of explaining to do.

Imagine if this woman would have been "forced" to give birth what a joy her life would be today with her teenager.

Almost all women, when the finally realize that they killed their baby, feel remorse and go through a very difficult time.

Some can deal with it, usually with proper counseling, and are able to accept forgiveness from God if they are truly repentant.

Just look at how her life ended up because of this action on her part:

In the book she wrote that this was her first experience with depression – a battle she continued to fight for the next 14 years.
If only abortion was completely illegal back then...she would not have gone through all of that which ended in the her taking her own life.

Two lives lost because of abortion.

She can abort the baby herself in any number of ways, and has been able to do so since the beginning of time with no one else’s help.

That is why it is not practical to think you can force someone to do that if they do not want to .

And I do not want to take part in any forcing.

Convincing, yes, forcing, Hell no.

When done properly...

I'm sure you agree that abortion can't be done "properly". I suggest "performed" or "perpetrated".

Next time you hear the term “fetus” come out a human’s mouth.. SLAPP him/her.. poke their eyes.. it’s disinformation.. it’s a BABY..

It all depends on context. I'm currently working on software describing fetal development. I'm as pro-life as they come. "Fetal development" in this case is a far more succinct expression than "as yet unborn baby development".

Of course, a fetus is a human being, with the inherit right to life. A baby is a human from conception all the way to the toddler stage. There's overlap there.

Go after disrespect, no matter what words are used.

Thanks for this post, that's a great idea.

By the way, you might like this 360° panorama I shot of the pre-walk rally….

Some just gloat when Satan claims another soul.

You surely were not inferring that yldstrk sides with Satan! I've read most of these posts and know exactly what was said, and meant.

That Satan is happy when people sin has been said for years and it sure doesn't mean that we are glad and "gloating" over this. Quite the opposite.

yldstrk deserves some apologies from those who "didn't get it".

Totally cool. I think I was along that treeline, but I’m not sure.

I have to admit I was thinking of ways to blog it out for Free Republic but I’m resource-constrained.

Good to see that you were there. Did you happen to see any signs that had my tagline? Especially those with a picture of a fetus...

there is no basis for your belief...

Agreed, but let's hope it is so.

“The seven “sacraments” of their secular culture are abortion, buggery, contraception, divorce, euthanasia, feminism of the radical type, and genetic experimentation and mutilation. These things they unabashedly espouse, profess and promote. Their continuance in public office is a clear and present danger to our survival as a nation.”

- Bishop Doran

the baby is in Heaven and she is in hell

Oh, did you get a personal call from God to let you know this woman's whereabouts? Sorry, a bit, for the sarcasm, but I don't think so. Please don't assume that God doesn't understand mental anguish, and that we all sin in many degrees.

Leave that decision to God---it is His, not ours.

Thanks. We are - quite properly told - that suicide is a mortal sin, and unforgiven mortal sin is an almost certain ticket to permanent separation from God.

Note "almost". It's all up to God, in His divine wisdom, to decide what to do with His creation.

May God have mercy on MY soul when the time comes….

I've absolutely I've seen it in the past. Thanks for the public pro-life support!

Good. So what’s the verdict and where is her soul?
