IMO, to turn your back on truth is the same as turning your back on Christ.
Science is never "settled".
"Under certain circumstances, I think it is a good idea to murder the children of men who have violated the law ..."
Nope. Sorry. I just can't go there. I can't make those statements. I leave such pronouncements to the Liberals and worshipers of Moloch.

Thank you for posting this.
Let us never forget who gives us life. It is not our earthly fathers, be they wonderful parents, wife beaters, drunken scoundrels or rapists.
It is God, our Heavenly Father, who gives us life.
We are endowed by our Creator with life.
Life is the Gift that God gives each of us. To kill an innocent life, no matter how it is conceived is a grievous sin.
It is not a “choice” it is a child.
His comment about the relative likelihood of a raped woman conceiving was completely irrelevant to the question of an abortion option in the case of rape. COMPLETELY irrelevant. As in it was a non sequitur.
It is inconceivable to me why he brought it up or why people keep defending it, two days after he himself renounced it and begged to be forgiven for saying it.
The problem is moral bravado can lose elections. And after losing the election they have big fat ZERO power to change anything. Sharon Angle, Christine O’Donnell, Joe Miller,
Doug Hoffman, Ken Buck & JD Hayworth all lost elections and
result is they can’t change any laws to protect life.
OTOH smart candidates can get elected and help change laws.
Serious issues can not be changed overnight. The voting public must be brought along to accomplish real changes.
It’s easy when you know they’re plan, divide and conquer. These people want us to hand the Missouri Senate seat over to the Democrats, look around and you’ll find them on threads wanting us to hand the Massachusetts Senate seat over to the Democrats, look around and you’ll find them on threads wanting us to leave the White house in the hands of the Democrats. It goes on and on. They always come at us from the right, cite our own faith against us. I’m making a list.
I don’t understand your point. Am I on your list? As a bad guy?
You’re right. Whether the prospect of conception is reduced or not, it is a proper civil function of government to protect innocent life. By what means, however, in a country that is pledged to pluralism?
Thank you.
Well said.
“I don’t understand your point. Am I on your list? As a bad guy?”
Since you don’t have your tin hat on at the right angle, I suspect you are.
That said, babies are innocent. Period. Sometimes those innocent babies grow up to leave a strong impact on society.
Everything Counts in Large Amounts.
A 3% chance means millions of pregnancies when applied to hundreds of millions of sexual encounters.
A 3% chance per act would also mean almost every sexually active woman would be pregnant by the end of a year.
Stupidity can be very divisive.
An excellent article.
I would point out that there are many ways to reduce the number of abortions without passing any laws. Even when abortion on demand is legal, we can offer support and counseling to pregnant women. Every issue has its “awareness” ribbons. How about one for pro-life? How about funding a charity like Planned Parenthood, except instead of providing abortions, this charity would provide counseling and adoption services and whatever other support a pregnant woman would need.
Those on the left are always clever and get support outside of the law. We should do the same. I’m not talking about violence. I’m talking about changing public opinion. If we can’t fight this battle in the voting booth or the legal system (and possibly we shouldn’t), we should fight it in the court of public opinion.
Even if abortion were illegal, there would still be illegal abortions performed or women would travel to countries where it’s legal. So there is still a need to change hearts and minds.
No federal funds to pay for abortions of any type but the states have rights to pass laws allowing it. This is how it should be.
Murder is murder.
Moral cowardous is what gave us 2006 and 2008. It is the reason we are fighting for survival now.
Bitch about amature hour conservatives all you want, but if the RNC actually displayed imprimis, the amatures would never have been needed.
