I know lots of religious groups who think abortion is a Bad Thing and would counsel their members most strenuously against it, but would not dream of considering the idea of convincing the Federal Government to make sure nobody had the right to act on their disagreement.
Well, these religions are being hypocritical on the issue, then. If they feel it's wrong, why is it wrong? (One would assume, "because it takes innocent life".) So, they're not interested in the government preserving innocent life? What's the point of having the belief if you're not going to act on it?
It is one thing to act on belief, quite another to try to have those beliefs be made the law of the land; the logical conclusion of the 'acting on it' you posit above is a theocracy.
Not in *my* United States of America, thank you.
This is to all the folks who have written similar things (not just you, DD). I do not lobby for the criminalization of abortion because it is my religious belief - I lobby for it because it is the right, humane, and dignified thing to do. But no one wants to talk facts - all you (opposed) say is "YOU CAN'T SHOVE YOUR RELIGION DOWN OUR THROATS!!!!" or words to that effect.
If anyone is remotely interested in the scientific facts regarding the gestation of human life, I'd be happy to provide links. If, however, you are all hung up on your humanistic "me first" vision of things, then stop with this ridiculous argument - and DO NOT try to make me feel like a cad for for having the beliefs I have.
I see. God forbid that someone should seek to have the same rights and protections that you claim you deserve!
You're right - I don't want those reprobates to have *any* rights, until they learn where that penis is *supposed* to go...
(You wouldn't have any problem believing I was serious when I wrote the above, would you? You just don't understand my position, and from your responses to my questions, you don't seem to want to. For the record, the above was a joke.)
Interesting how I cannot recall you making any jokes about the way folks insist on creating more useless eaters to consume natural resources.
Didn't my little summary of the 60's give any indication of how I feel? We wouldn't have useless eaters if people showed a little restraint in participating in activities that cause such eaters to be created. Reduced morals = more sex = more babies.
But. heaven forbid someone suggest that someone else should do something "right" or "wrong" - seems "rights" these days merely consist of "I wanna"s.
