rodriguezequal 3 Posted April 3, 2009 Wow gamyj...did you have a bad day or something. This thread is not to bash individuals. If you wish to talk to someone personally please take it to personal messaging and not this thread. This thread is for discussing the topic of abortion...please try to stay on topis without bashing others. That kind of attitude is not what we need here....thank you!

BJean 16 Posted April 3, 2009 You know me well, gadget. You're counting on the fact that I won't filter back through all the pages of threads and line up all the statements and vile fear mongering that you have done ad nauseum on this thread. If I weren't sure that everyone else had read them, I would do that. But you're not fooling anyone. Don't act all innocent. You know you are guilty of doing exactly what you are accusing me of - except that you've done it louder and longer than I even thought about doing. I am sick to death of the shrill right wing absurd, ridiculous posts that I've read over and over and over. You all must be in a frenzied panic about the things our new president is proposing and is actually doing. It makes us wonder when the people like Timothy McVeigh are going to come out of the woodwork. Unfortunately, I have a feeling some of you wouldn't be disappointed if they did. I am so over trying to make sense of such lopsided, right wing thinking here. Sorry ladies, you're on your own now. Knock yourselves out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laptastic 0 Posted April 3, 2009 Sorry ladies, you're on your own now. Knock yourselves out. NOOOOOO! BJean, you and Rodriguezequal are my heroes. You are the voices of reason on here. Whenever I want to say something, you two say it soooo much better than I would. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gadgetlady 4 Posted April 3, 2009 Thanks, rodriguezequal, pattygreen, and luluc. I appreciate your kind words. It's not fun to be attacked -- as you all know! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gadgetlady 4 Posted April 3, 2009 gadgetlady,hummm.... judgemental? that is exactly what u are. gamyj, again, you don't know me. I have never judged or condemned anyone for having an abortion, in person or online. I believe the act of abortion is gravely wrong but I have the utmost understanding and compassion for mothers and the situations that drive them to abort.

rodriguezequal 3 Posted April 3, 2009 WOW...I don't think I've ever been called a hero or a voice of reason lol. Thank you so much. :w00t: I just speak from the heart and say what's on my mind. I'm not going anywhere.... You're very welcome Gadget...just because we have different beliefs and views doesn't mean that we can't be friends :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gamyj 0 Posted April 3, 2009 i was not bashing. if u read my original thread i simply stated to agree to diagree, gadgetlady obviously didn't like that i simply didn't take a stand with her, and verbalized that in her next thread aimed at me in a less than compassionate way. I don't appreciate being patronised and simply rebuted what she wrote. I, in my first thread, didn't even give my opinion whether i agreed or disagreed I said that we live in a country that allows legal abortion. Last i knew argueing about it wasn't really going to change anything. she has made it obvious that she is not interrested in a difference of opinion, shes looking for a fight, or at least to convert people to her pt of view. I also was not the one waging any personal attacks via this post. I was responding, just as you responded to my post. trying to kick someone off a thread seems a bit hostile to me. So i guess your having a bad day also. actually i had a good day, i just won't sit and let someone try to talk down to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodriguezequal 3 Posted April 3, 2009 I never once said I was trying to kick someone off the thread...I just said that attacking isn't welcome here...they said that if personal attacks happen they are going to close this thread and I enjoy talking on this thread. While Gadget and I do not share the same views...I enjoy our discussions and I would hate for them to end because of arguing about things off topic, that's all. I know how hurtful it is to be bashed for my beliefs and I don't think it's faur that's all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BJean 16 Posted April 3, 2009 Laptastic that was very appreciated by me. As I'm sure you know, it is no fun being attacked. So I know you'll understand why at this point I really believe I need to opt out. Trust me, there will be a PM celebration if I do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodriguezequal 3 Posted April 3, 2009 gadgetlady,obviously u r one of those crazies who stand on the sidewalk with pics of abourted babies without having any humanity at all. no humanity for those women who had abortions out of necessity for some cruelty having played out in their lives... whether it be a brutal rape, or incest or who knows what. You sit there and condem women for a choice, the whether u like it or not is legal. You have more compassion for cells of an unborn "being" more than u have for the living. you are NOT judge any jury, u are NOT G*D. U don't have any right to treat people the way u do because of an opionion u have. why don't u find something else to preach about that isn't so hateful and ignorant. Yes u are ignorant if u think you have the right to make woman feel like shit because you are on some high horse trying to play G*D. I really hope that none of the women close to u ever get raped and pregnant... you are a woman of no compassion for the living... just for something that doesn't exsist. I wasn't refering to your first post...I was responding to this bash on Gadget....This was not called for... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pattygreen 5 Posted April 3, 2009 http://http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v25/i1/blob.asp This link is to help prochoicers understand scientifically that the baby is not a blob of tissue, but that researchers in the Australian government have found that differentiation of the embryonic cell begins on the day of conception.

rodriguezequal 3 Posted April 3, 2009 And of course this is coming from a Bible site/source. I have never refered to the fetus as a blob....I...as most people know...The fetus has cells that will become a head, legs, ect...if it developes as planned by your "God". However your "God" doesn't control the actions of others and if your "God" has no business affecting free will than what makes you think the government should?

Because the gov. was set up to protect and defend the people who can't do it themselves alone. You are right when you say that God allows free will. He also told us what are acceptable practices and what are not. Just remember that we will all be held accountable for the lives we have destroyed that weren't ours to destroy. With that said, God also tells us that he will forgive anyone who has sinned if they believe in him and ask him to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
