Oh well Bree, all good things must come to an end, and here goes our little period of detente.So are you saying that two people that have opposing views about something can not be friends..Guz? I can't speak for the right-wingers on this ..nor..the priest that has betrayed himself as well as the church..or proponents of the death penalty. (Btw..I'm against capital punishment. At one time I was...I will admit..but my thinking has evolved.) The Silent Scream: I will grant you that is not completely unbiased. Right To Life sponsored and shows it at their meetings. What I saw was a baby in the womb having just being injected with saline..and watched as the fetus flailed it's arms..to me it seemed as it was in pain. Now..depending on one's viewpoint on this issue ..I realize it can be subjective. (we see what we want to see sometimes and block out what we don't) But I would say to this..none of us really knows for sure if the fetus feels anything but should not we err on the side that he/she does?
Sorry I can not be gentle about this Breezy!
Also, there are many in the movement that do put their money where their mouth is. They not only give emotional support to the mother..but buy baby clothing..baby furniture etc.. I can tell you this first hand.
Take care..
Bree
I am so tired of morals and ethics being flashed about and influencing what goes on in a woman's
body the past 15 or 20 years! It goes right back to our early battle cries; My Body My Choice,
It's a woman's right to choose, etc. Anything that is living off of my body, or a sister's is
COMPLETELY in her jurisdiction. We used to say things like this back then, but somehow we've let
ourselves be shamed by anti-abortionists, the right wing, religious leaders, the media and others.
But I wonder why those same people are such supporters of the death penalty!
We pretend to love these unborn children and then these same freaks and selfish people don't want
to pay taxes to help them find a way. So they're "pro-life" but in a way, emotional, economic and
physical child abusers. AND That's my freakin' opinion, at least I haven't wavered for the past
30 years. ANd I don't let some church whose very leaders are child abusers dictate how I should
feel about this. Not to mention sexists, who are still trying to control women. Oh and movie you
refer to is completely unbiased, I'm sure. <sarcasm>.
You really should see what I left out of this post - !
Still ....
Peace,
Susan
