tl/drMore than anger, it seemed like you were calling in some reinforcement. I would welcome Ding because he cant's bear to stay on topic and on maintaining decent behaviour with anyone who challenges his beliefs. Do you know why he can't allow his POV to stand as representing his beliefs.
I think it's the same reason why you felt you could do better with his input. I don't think there's any Christian on this forum who could add anything positive to your arguments. Rather, any additions to your POV just bring in more contradictions.
I think you would be wrong to invite his input. Ding would destroy all the progress that we've found possible between us.
Ding needs a concluding answer to the bible stories, while you and I are content to leave it to one's own opinion, as the Catholic church suggests must be the only conclusion.
And now I'm left with nothing on which to disagree, until you or Ding create something. Perhaps that's what he means when he keeps obsessing about me being passive aggressive?
It's quite sensible to make the penalty for abortion a misdemeanor.6 weeks / misdemeanor - who's the sinner.
they claim a 6 week holiday before the religious zealots have to begin their persecution of pregnant women. bing.
- have to wonder how long the 6 weeker's will last before the zealots turn on them ...
Maybe try restating what you think the Catholic Church teaches or better yet actually copy and paste it from the Catechism. Because you haven't ever gotten this right despite my repeated attempts at correcting you.And so Ding and Meri, how does this work for you?
The Catholic church proclaimed that the flock could believe whatever they chose to believe on the bible stories, and particulary on Genesis. That is, as long as they believed that the god created everything. (we don't need to open that can of worms on how the two could be possible?)
That's where was are now on the questions and we're all quite happy with leaving it at that.
Many years ago (30?) Meri's granny understood that many of the bible stories were bogus and she wasn't afraid to say so. That understanding was then adopted by Meri, and apparently by Ding too. To be commended for being modern Christians!
And so what's left to debate?
Well, except that all the other Christians and Jews are left holding an empty bag.
do you or do you not insist upon charging every woman who chooses to terminate her own pregnancy to be arrested in the privacy of her own home and charged and penalized under a misdemeanor violationHow many times do I have to tell you I'm no saint?
People don't get arrested for misdemeanors. It's like a speeding ticket. I've had speeding tickets before. They're not so bad. Maybe the thing is you don't see anything wrong with ending a human life.do you or do you not insist upon charging every woman who chooses to terminate her own pregnancy to be arrested in the privacy of her own home and charged and penalized under a misdemeanor violation
so she can be publicly shamed before the Republican Party Sainthood of right wing political extremism.
You can't even say what it is. It's literally killing the life that is growing inside her.terminate her own pregnancy
you are a liar.You can't even say what it is. It's literally killing the life that is growing inside her.
Not sure how it was a lie because I quoted the post where you didn't say that, but ok, if you want to own up to saying abortion kills the human life growing inside her, I won't stop you from saying that.you are a liar.
it’s a lie because you know goddamn well I said that to you in the past - it’s in writing.Not sure how it was a lie because
Whatever you said in the past has absolutely nothing to do with you trying to soften or sugar coat it now.it’s a lie because you know goddamn well I said that to you in the past - it’s in writing.
The only one acting like a self righteous saint is you. I'm certainly no saint. And if you spoke to me in person like you are speaking to me now, I'd show you I was no saint. I've said many times there's nothing special about me, so if you are feeling inferior, I suggest you examine yourself. But let me be very clear here, everytime you try to soften what abortion is, I'll be there to correct you. Fair enough?I do not choose to use the Republican sainthood phraseology when saying “termination of a pregnancy“ is the normal way normal human say it. You Saint Ding being a goddamn Republican saint and authoritarian expect everyone to use language that fits your limited understanding of the natural world and all the kinds of humans that live in it.
just because you consider yourself to be above everybody else, does that mean everybody else has to obey your dictates on the usage of language?
Abortion by the purposeful choice of the woman who chooses for herself to get it done causes no harm to you; no harm to your friends and family; no harm to the fellow residents in the state in which you live; no harm to the United States of America; no harm to the civilization of the world during this history of all mankind.soften what abortion is,
Morals are effectively standards. For any given thing there exists a standard which is the highest possible standard. This standard exists independent of anything else. It is in effect a universal standard. It exists for logical reasons.
I think you are trying to overly complicate this because you don't want to consider it a crime even if it is only a misdemeanor.
Then you think quite poorly.I think you are trying to overly complicate this because you don't want to consider it a crime even if it is only a misdemeanor.
Saint Ding has anointed himself to be the Great Determinator of what happens in allthere is no crime when allowed 6 weeks to have an abortion ... the zealots need to figure that out and put a stop to it, especially w/ new early testing many will seek refuge as is their right of self determination.
Like Massie, James Traficant also spoke up against AIPAC and paid for it with his career and life. He was a Congressman from Ohio.
If abortion is murder then the "secular Jewish state" of Israel is up the creek without a paddle, because they perform more abortions per capita than in the US. How will the cohenim of the world survive, if they thumb their nose at Hashem, with their wholesale abortions, LGBTQ+++? How do you figure that the Jewish Israelis will defeat the Muslims when Jewish Israelis refuse to take control of the temple mount? There's no such thing as a secular liberal Israel.you would call murder a misdemeanor? Does it become a felony at birth?
Good thing I never said it isIf abortion is murder
