RM123- aww that old switcheroo of replacing a growing fetus as being a fulling grow child born out of love and intention.
Quick science lesson- no charge. A fetus is a stage of development, it is not a 'thing'. The same goes for an embryo. That is only a stage of development too. Just like being an infant, a toddler, an adolescent, teenager or adult. A fetus of a dog is a dog, a fetus of a cat is a cat and the fetus of a human being is a human being. Thinking that a fetus is not a human being because it is a fetus is nothing short of cultural error and not based on science.
So you would want your daughter to born a child that she never wanted, that continuously reminds her what cased this birth/pregnancy for the rest of her life and to be a responsible parent and mother to this child as well.
She could give her child to another to raise. Maybe someone who had an abortion in the past and then couldn't have children. That would be a good story. Your alternative is to abort and have her remember when she want to have a family and bring back those very real feelings and wonderings about what could have been a more noble decision.
You sure are a godly man then full of sanctimonious self righteousness vindication.
I am neither. I am like everyone else here.
Simon You talk as though the Church invented charity. There is no evidence of that.
Actually, in protestant writer Thomas Woods book titled 'How the Catholic Church built Western Civilization' he notes an abundance of evidence that you have never heard of. Worth looking at to get a legit handle on true history.
There is evidence that they got fucking rich fleecing people with BS though and abused children in orphanages.
Really, how did the Catholic orphanages rate against other peoples' orphanages? Oh right, no one did it before. LOL Seriously though, if you looked to the people who gave the world the bible. You'd never think someone should marry their rapist. You'd never think lying is a good thing and you'd never think that the bible was a guide to life.
RM123 The ancient Hebrew laws of social behavior were so right and just weren't they ?
I reject this premise 100% What Christian follows the ancient Hebrew laws? As a Christian I acknowledge the Jewish God, but I'm a gentile. So are you. OT is not a guide to Christianity.
Should a young innocent girl have to go through child birth and bring a up a child that a rapist inflicted onto her, keeping a constant reminder of how that pregnancy occurred to herself and latter maybe to that child. ?
No, of course not. But that doesn't mean the best choice is to abort. I know women who have had abortions and I know women who have giving their children for adoption. I hold no judgement against the girl who aborts but we all would hold in higher esteem the woman who gave life instead of the other way.
Jeff The superstitious ritual for determining ‘guilt’ relies on ‘God doing a magic thing’ (though back in reality, whether the woman miscarries would have nothing to do with whether she’s ‘guilty’), so it can’t just be explained away as merely Moses said we could’.
Actually Jeff, the passage says that the woman in question must also ask for this along with the priest. Regardless, I am not Jewish, I only acknowledge that my God is theirs. I do not follow the bible as my guide through life. It is not made for that.
