  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Thoughts on a Barack quote?

Try looking up what changes take place in a womans body during pregnancy and how those changes are reflective of mood through hormonal changes in the fetus. Children that go full term in a womb that does not desire to keep them are forever scarred both physically and emotionally does the child really deserve that?

ALL are living things. And it would prove self preservation exists in the unborn human being.

Now we're getting closer to a civilized conversation about human beings. One step at a time.
But neither Amoebas, houseflies or fetuses have a brain.

I'd say Obama cares more about his kids than his grand kids.
And half brothers aren't of much interest to him either.

Better not survive an abortion in Obama's world.

Truth and reality are now considered a phobia and a hate crime.

What are they sucking out of the skulls of "fetuses" in third trimester (and earlier) abortions??????

DNA. Follow the path. Start with your first moments of existence. No matter how you spin it, "you" go all the back to a fertilized ovum.

So? I quite literally couldn't have cared less if I'd been aborted.

Or, indeed, if I'd failed to be conceived.

Thanks Athene. Been back one day and my rep count is up 7 billion, seriously.

The vast majority of abortions are prior to brain development. I understand DNA far better than most people ever will and I do not see your point. If I scrape my tongue I have enough DNA to clone myself so if I wash that DNA down the drain I have just committed murder?

Nice spin. That DNA from the cells coming off of YOUR tongue, are, and only can be YOU. You can't clone you from the neighbor down the street. What you just showed is that DNA proves who and what you are. That being, YOU. The only difference between the DNA in your tongue tissues and a fertilized ovum is a name and a status.

Now, if you do understand DNA, you also know that at the moment of conception, the DNA in your tongue tissue was all there at the fertilized ovum stage of "developement."



I think you see my point perfectly.

So it seems your contention is that the child deserves death.

Facts? Evidence? Resource for your assertion? Abstinence is 100% effective in preventing pregnancy, STD's and being labeled many bad words that men do not get called.

The second (and it is a related thought) did the Palin girl…whatever her name is…have any choice in the matter?

Choice for what killing her unborn child because she did something wrong? How has ending someone else's life become a choice anyway?

Not in the getting pregnant part but in the what to do now that I am pregnant part.

You should get to a biology book and see what happens when a woman (note "women") gets pregnant. Birth of an individual human being is the result.

Is she being forced (pushed, coerced) into marriage and motherhood to further her mothers agenda and political career?

Maybe she is doing what a Christian should do? Repent and sin no more. Ever heard of that?

Part of me says ‘defiantly’

The part of you that was lucky enough to be born? That part?

It's not a contention, it is their mantra. Abortion is not a joke. Someone dies and someone goes on living. It's the greatest act of hypocisy in the history of mankind. Someone lucky enough not to be aborted doesn't give the same chance to someone else.

I see that Obama is the only candidate sane enough to do more good than harm to the America Bush leaves behind.

You guys think they go straight to heaven and we think that a clump of cells is only a potential human.
So what's the problem?
