I think that if a women is raped she should have the baby and if does not want he/she, give him or her up for adoption. Bless someones life with the child. I do not support abortion. Many people who adopt want baby's anyway. I think it would be the right thing to do.Baby's are alive before they are born. They have a heart beat and they move. It would be like murder to kill the baby. But we live in a sinful world and its a shame that a life no matter how small can be taken away from them and they have no choice in the matter.
i was adopted at age 4 thanx to the Lord and my parents casey is right many are adopted you do not know who but most people talk or pass by adopted people all the time...............
 
they verbally sayit in press confernces and debates all the time mitt whats his face will not take a stand and refuses to deny it cause thier all his friends and hate 47 % of all women and his view is the same its true but they are not christian they follow some form of pagan satanism satan worship......


I said, "show me."

The last bit sounds like you're describing Catholicism.
 
What if the woman is not Christian say a Hindu or Muslim must they meet the Christian standard, why? How about if she is an atheist?

btw jimmydiggs I am very offended at that cartoon drawing


the cartoon graphic tells us nothing about Genesis and when a fetus is a human being. You obviously have not thought for two seconds about that verse and what it means. Frankly I am fed up with males telling women what they can and cannot do with their bodies. The doctor patient relationship should be protected from the government at all costs


I don't think jimmydiggs is telling you what to do with your body. He just respects God's Word!

Again I post Psalm 139:13-18

13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
17 How precious to me are your thoughts,[a] God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand—
when I awake, I am still with you.

That sounds like a living human being to me!

If you disagree with this take it up with God.

Youre forgetting God is also omniscient. He already knows what you are going to do and be. Dont really see what if anything this has to do about whether a fetus counts as a life or not....

Nautilus I haven't forgotten anything. God created our life we don't have the right to end it or end another persons if we do it's called murder. It amazes me how people try and twist scripture to justify their wrong doings. Maybe you forgot God is in charge and not us, it is God that chooses when life ends not us.
 
Thing is, despite our personal beliefs, i think it is wrong to take away a womans choice to do with her body. some people believe piercing are religiously wrong, but it doesnt mean we have a right to make piercings illegal. now granted thiss issue is more serious than that, but from what ii understand most/all thhe ppl who have been commenting have NEVER been raped. have NEVER had to make that decision. I have been there, i made my decision. i know what it takes emotionally to go through it and make that choice, and carry to term and deal with all the emotions from the assault and the choice madde after all through term. if you have never had to go through iit, then YOU DO NOT KNOW what it takes, or costs. you wouuld not know what carrying the burden of someone else's sin in that way would feel like. and if you do not know, and have never had to deal with it, why should you have the right to determine if it is legal or not? i think it is absolutely moronic and beyond offenssive to have men in >> cont<<
 
<< men in gov't deciding what women are or are not allowed to do with their bodies. men can run away from this kind of mistake. - and are rarely even charged. women CANNOT run, cannot hide. we have to deal with their mistake

its only murder if you consider a fertilized embryo a person. I honestly dont believe you can say they are alive yet at that point. I also love how people try to take their interpretations of scripture and force it onto a whole country as justifiable laws.
 
I disagree, Nautilus. When one kills an embryo, it is killing the human that could have been born. Could have become the next scientist and the other people who are against abortion, I understand those reasons that I had never heard about before. As for their interpretations of scripture, it is not just an interpretation it is what God implies you can agree or disagree with it but you will have to answer to God after you choose. First of all a fertilized embryo is a person. It does not a dog, cat, mouse, or a fish. First of all, this is not just a religious argument, there is substance to this too. A person who is a bioethicist and wrote a book called Embryo: A Defense of Human Life. That would be a good resource to understand the arguments that people use against abortion and how it is not just a religious argument. God bless.

In ref to : Pregnancies from rape a "gift from God"?????

I do not understand why people spin words out of context to appear HORRID. This is nothing short of "baiting" to cause hate. I realized in reading one of the above post this is hurtful to people who are victims of such violence.

When I went back to find the original video of the interview with Richard Murdock and share , the full video had been removed.
But I found the text.

The TRUTH in its full context of the interview, is the opposite of what evil wants you to believe.

This man, Richard Murdock, was asked about his (personal)views on abortion, and he replied QUOTE: " pregnancy was a gift from God, even if it was the result of rape.", He added "“I believe life begins at conception,” he said. “The only exception I have for to have an abortion is in the case of the life of the mother. " He added, "I struggled with myself for a long time but I came to realize life is that gift from God, even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape. It is something that God intended to happen.
The media has taken the word" IT" , spun it around and used it to "bait" the evil and feed ignorance. The word "it" is refering to the Child as being a gift from God. Common sense ....... or lack there of.

feeding into these "bait" and "spins" on truth, you better reconsider what you are doing.
..this is a SIN with a capitol S , falsly accusing anyone of something you KNOW is not true is wrong.
 
I know at least two women personally who were raped and kept the kid, not just kept the child without an abortion, but actually have kept and raised the kid and loved them.

Was that their CHOICE? Did they CHOOSE to keep the child, or was that choice made for them by someone else?

I think each woman should have the CHOICE to make that decision for herself. Of course, I hope each woman chooses correctly, but saying that she doesn't have the right to make that choice is as bad as saying she shouldn't be allowed to keep a child in cases of rape. Come on, people, God gave us ladies brains, and free will. We know how to make decisions for ourselves. We don't need men, or government, or any human authority, telling us what to do.
 
Er... the woman will remember the rape for the rest of her life regardless. Murdering the baby doesn't erase the rape. Logic people, logic.

Exactly!! And furthermore, I do not agree with goverment taking our tax dollars to perform these abortions. A larger goverment takes away a persons freedom to choose. I call it common sense.

So then would you have that larger government take away churches bc some ppl dont agree with our religion? would you have them make only one large road to get to where they think you need to go, and eliminate that choice for you? what you are talking about it communism, govt making all the choices for the people instead of letting make their own decisions. each person is responsible for their own choices, good or bad. we cant take away their option to do something we dont like based on OUR morals. when they outlawed drinking, what happened? when your parents told you - you arent allowed to ____ !!- what did u do? most likely u did it anyway under their nose. before abortion was legal ppl still did it. at least this way is safe for people that have made that choice.
 
People have the CHOICE to be christian. people have the CHOICE to have babies before marriage. he had the CHOICE to listen to her when she said NO. and yeah, abortions dont take away the memory of the event, but it does in some cases keep from further trauma. or suicide. so if u had to choose btwn a woman choosing t kill herself bc she COULDNT get an abortion and was pregnant with a rapists child, had this thing inside her that she could not mentally/emotionally deal with - wud you tell her to commit suicide or abortion? if it was your daughter, sister, mother - wud u tell her to kill heself instead? or go ahead and make that decision that she already knows she will feeel great physiical and emotional pain over? is it not better than her killing herself? I made it through bc I had GOD, most people now days DONT have that.
 
So then would you have that larger government take away churches bc some ppl dont agree with our religion?


Not even remotely related. A true parallel would be, "Do you want the Government to not pay for building our churches, because some people don't agree with our religion?" And the answer to that from me is a resounding no. I do NOT want the government paying for the building of churches.
