You either lacked reading comprehension skills or you simply decided to respond to a ghost posting.

Boo hoo. You went off, no correlation between your response and the original post.

And I did think it was funny if I could get on youtube I would have posted a clip of that scene.

I believe it is. However, abortion is an issue that government has proven incapable of addressing through merely banning a procedure. A comprehensive approach is necessary. And seeing that in the real world a Westernized country like America will never outlaw abortion good sense demands we take a stand for policies that will help and encourage women in crisis pregnancies to choose life.

Now, you do open a rather large can of worms here. It’s been said that in the United States the percentage of executed criminals who were innocent of charges convicted for could be as high as 11%. Is that murder? Would you say a Christian is justified in opposing the death penalty on the grounds that it’s not worth risking the possibility of murdering an innocent person?

Also, in war the heaviest cost isn’t paid by the warring factions in power but rather the innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. Would you say a Christian is justified in opposing war on the grounds that it results in the murder of innocent civilians?

I think we’d both agree….this world is fallen and brutal. That means we need to mediate the damage done…but we’ll never achieve a moral utopia. Rather it be abortion, the death penalty, or war it will always be with us and we must do what we can to minimize the damage of these social evils. Sadly, merely banning abortion doesn’t affect abortion rates. A more comprehensive approach is necessary.

Have you ever watched a TV program on the law? I have one word for you...Intent.

If a soldier INTENTIONALLY kills a civilian guess what he is prosecuted. If the government INTENTIONALLY killed an innocent person the individuals responsible would be prosecuted for it. I have never heard of an unintentional abortion in an abortion clinic.

I did. you were asked questions.... you didnt ask a question. you stated what you called a known fact.


there is a difference.


ours pointed out a glaring mistake on your part, then a refusal on your part to correct the mistake.

yours was a personal attack.


once again, your "facts" pull up short.
