hatefulness

Sick.raying:

 

What do you believe?

Are you a Christian?

 

And I'll move this question to your thread on abortion, too, since you said the subject was for another thread---but, how do you define "quality of life", and how do you think this is relevant to the issue of abortion?

Because two things have happened with the advent of technology in the biological sciences---we have the capability to PROVE that life DOES exist inside the womb (have you ever seen a sonogram?---the VIDEO of the ultrasound of the baby inside its mother's womb. It'll prove life to you faster than anything!).....AND we have the capability to decide to embrace it or destroy it.

Back before the technology we have now, parents didn't know beforehand that their child would be born with deformities or handicaps or birth defects.....so they didn't have anybody telling them that they could "choose to abort the less-than-perfect-fetus" if they wanted a baby that had a perfect "quality of life". Now, the same technology that PROVES that there really is a person inside mommy's belly, also gives us the choice to yank that life out of her belly.....proving, I guess, that science brings with it both evil and good consequences---just as everything with man does.

But we as Christians ALREADY HAVE BEEN TOLD that life begins in the womb--by the Bible--God's Word to us. That's all we really need to know.

And, to tie this in with the OP, THIS subject is WORTHY of heated discussion. I personally don't like to see hatefulness employed by anyone, either, corndoggy....but I think sometimes it comes across as hatefulness because posters don't realize how much venom can be perceived in the "written" word. What we say with passion and zeal could often be better phrased, for sure, though.

 

yes. Are you a Christian?

 

Yes and I think we've met.

Did you have another name on the BB? Maybe jsn9333?

 

We can only fulfill this commandment through Christ.

 

It is interesting that the same argument is made so soon after jsn is gone.

Makes one wonder

 

The flesh warreth against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh. Yes, in the flesh dwelleth no good thing.

It is only by the strength of Christ that we can love our enemies.
