By the way:
Can you find a single use of the word "moral" or "morality" in the Holy Bible except this one?
[SUP]James 1:21 [/SUP]Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.
Probably the word "moral" was invented by the devil to deceive you!

Morality (from the Latin moralitas "manner, character, proper behavior") is the differentiation of intentions, decisions, and actionsbetween those that are "good" (or right) and those that are "bad" (or wrong). The philosophy of morality is ethics. A moral code is a system of morality (according to a particular philosophy, religion, culture, etc.) and a moral is any one practice or teaching within a moral code. Morality may also be specifically synonymous with "goodness" or "rightness." Immorality is the active opposition to morality (i.e. opposition to that which is good or right), while amorality is variously defined as an unawareness of, indifference toward, or disbelief in any set of moral standards or principles.[SUP][1][/SUP][SUP][2][/SUP][SUP][3][/SUP][SUP][4][/SUP] An example of a moral code is the Golden Rule which states that, "One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself."[SUP][5]

My own obstetrician told me when I was pregnant that a large number of pregnancies terminate on their own(naturally). It is true. Most doctors refer to it as a normal part of reproduction. The woman's body just pretty much rejects it. This is also a common reason for ectopic pregnancy.These pregnancies are alot more common than people think
I don't know. God allowed people to crucify his son. Does that mean we should crucify our own the same way.
He also destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for sin like homosexuality. Does that mean we should kill gay people or anyone who has comitted a sexual sin of any sort?
Death is the result of sin. Not God. Death came into the world when sin entered. God gives life. Since he gives life who are we to intentionally take it away?
These two example are because of SIN.

in-God-we-trust, please read the whole of Matthew 7 and it is talking about judging about something when you have the same problem. You can judge but in gentleness, love, and respect for the other person's views but there are times when you have to say that something is wrong and it is wrong. So you do have to do it as a Christian, but not in a negative way, but pointing what might be the weakness or area that they are wrong. If they see that they are wrong and change from that view, fine. If they see that they are wrong or do not want to change from that view, then even when they are showed that they are wrong, they might not change and they are still wrong. God bless, love the fellowship with other believers on this Christian Chat.
Fiber-optic photographs of these little ones have disclosed to us what exquisitely beautiful and delicate marvels of creation they are. One physician describes his experience of seeing firsthand one of these eight-week-old little ones:
Years ago, while giving an anesthetic for a ruptured tubal pregnancy (at two months), I was handed what I believed to be the smallest human being ever seen. The embryo sac was intact and transparent. Within the sac was a tiny human male swimming extremely vigorously in the amniotic fluid, while attached to the wall of the umbilical cord. This tiny human was perfectly developed with long, tapering fingers, feet and toes. It was almost transparent as regards the skin, and the delicate arteries and veins were prominent to the end of the fingers. The baby was extremely alive and did not look at all like the photos and drawings of "embryos" which I had seen. When the sac was opened, the tiny human immediately losts its life and took on the appearance of what is accepted as the appearance of an embryo at this stage, blunt extremities, ect.
No one who has seen photographs of infants in the womb between eight and twelve weeks old can honestly deny that here we have a human baby.
The above is from the book, Hard Questions Real Answers, by William Lane Craig.
Yes, I agree that science is useful. And any real scientist, who is not promoting an agenda, will have to admit:
1. Any baby aborted between eight and twelve weeks, (when most babies are aborted), is a real human being
2. A baby is NOT part of it's mothers body, but a separate entity, having it's own DNA, organs, brain, heart, and will to live, existing on it's mother's life support, but not an organ or disease to be excised and destroyed at the whims of an immoral court system, or as a convenient birth control mechanism.

P
and any mother who has delivered (miscarriage) at 12-14 weeks can tell you it's a human being.

Yes, it is going on and on.
Maybe it is so, because it is highly controversial and does not follow common political patterns.
I admire the republican party and their recent presidents Ronald Reagan, George Bush sen., George W. Bush jun., I like even Sarah Palin!
But I do not understand, why some are so picky about abortion. Abortion within the proper time frame and approved by government shuld not be a problem at all. Why can people wish to make life even more complicated than it still is now? That about the praxis.
But in theory you may still maintain abortion is not good. I have no problem with that opinion either.
