Steven,
>Hey strawman, strawman here: If you met a woman who stated " If a get pregnant, I will abort", would you sterilize her?

False Dilemma - Two choices are given when in actuality there could be more choices possible....I could kill her, for instance. But the more I think about it, a prevention of pregnancy by any means is not an abortion. I don't agree with the Catholic church on their stand on birth control.

>no actually, rex, i quite enjoy being amoral and godless.

Line up the pros and cons when you consider the possible damage to your body and psyche (and the bodies/psyches of others) which may lead you to an early death. Your statements are not consistent with a rational outlook of the world. What you seem to be saying is that one of the gnostic philosophies is your belief. Bacchnalia (What you do with your body does not matter since it is evil) lead Alexander the Great, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and millions of others to an early death. If you are not going to come around to a solid belief system at least pick one that is consistent with long life and harmony with nature.

"Damned Forever."

by scout575 in

"the christian church is a clever mix of psychological tactics.

having got you in with a promise of 'free' salvation, they keep you there with psychological blackmail.".

"the christian church is as guilty of the tricks used by cults which it purports to detest ( moonies, mormons, jehovah's witnesses et alia ).

>If you have found a Church that teaches that all decent folks, believers and nonbelievers are valuable and to be respected then you have found a very special place.

REAL Christian churches do just that. Especially, evangelical fundamentalists. What they DON'T teach is cheap grace, unaccountability for sin or universalism. You need to hear the gospel as portrayed in the Bible, by Jesus and unmixed with politically correct lies that will leave you separated from your creator through eternity. Grace is defined as 'unmerited favor', it is FREE and not given by some minister or organization. It is simple acceptance of the gospel preached in 1 Cor. 15: 4-7. You will either accept it or be offended by it, as there is no 'fence sitting' when it comes to the Lord of Glory.

Midwich,
I ask again: Why should that few inches from womb to exit make any difference? Why is it 'immoral' to execute a murderer but not 'immoral' to abort a baby. Why is it moral to abort a baby and immoral to kill him/her after it's birthed? That is exactly what abortionists and their weaselly supporting politicians are guilty of. We would have made it illegal to do a partial birth abortion but Slick Willy vetoed it! Even the NOW witches refused to condemn his actions toward women, practically raped one, fooled around on his wife even in the Oval Office. Liberals all stick together or they are cast out and ostracised.

Trace,
This place is so full of liberals that they've made it illegal for anyone to fart for fear it will deplete the ozone in here. LOL What really takes the cake is that they have no idea that their present views are the result of Watchtower indoctrinated nihlism. They have been taught to hate (real) Christians, hate and fear our own government, especially the military. Every liberal position seems to be taken by the majority of the posters here. They 'toe' the liberal belief line to the max. The ones who agree or see my points are usually afraid to take a position in opposition to their peers. Just like when they were JWs.

Dinner with moderate Muslims

by peacefulpete in

my wife has a classmate that recently married a pakistani man.

he's here only on a student visa and is faced with returning to pakistan as soon as he graduates.

he has an application for greencard pending but the wheels turn slow.

Inquisitor,
>Xian fundies target abortion clinics and funerals of dead soldiers. But they do more.
Muslim extremists have killed over a million people in various attacks, suicide or non.
>Who killed Matthew Shepard?
Who beheaded Nick Berg, and the reporter in Pakistan? Who killed dozens of Iraqi children because they had accepted candy from U.S. Soldiers? Muslims are targeting other Muslims to prevent them from having a democratic government. You are an idiot to make comparisons between Christians and Muslims.
>For whose favour is Bush clamoring by appealing TWICE for a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage?
Who is trying to REDEFINE A WORD? 95% of gays do not stay monogamous! Where are gays safe, Muslim countries or western democracies?
>The delusional representative of which religion made a passing threat of assassination to a South American president?
What delusional president of Iran claimed that the Holocast did not happen and that Israel would be exterminated?
>Why do so-called secular-thinking politicians oppose stem-cell research?
What so called 'scientists' refuse to admit that adult stem cells lead to many more cures for illnesses?
>Which group is trying to silence lessons on science and evolution by replacing it with Intelligent Design?
Which group routinely silences all opposition by killing them?
>None of these wrongs can compare with strapping yourself with dynamite and killing Israeli civilians. But don't trivialise the mistakes in your own backyard simply because there is something worse in someone else's.
You are still clueless and misguided because you refuse to recognize the vast differences in the cultures of the two religions.
>Christianity is no more a religion of peace than Islam. It depends on who's the spokesperson and what is his/her agenda.
Christian teachings are NOTHING LIKE teachings in the Koran. Christian countries are NOTHING LIKE Islamic countries. Which groups of people in the Christian countries enjoy more freedom than anywhere else? Let's start with Gays, Minorities, Other religions, women, perverts of every stripe, abortionists, all criminals, displaced Canadians.....oops. LOL
Liberalism is a mental illness.
