Points: 21,485, Level: 92 | Level up: 93%, 865 Points needed | | Pro-Abortion Cowards Why are you pro-abortionists - who claim the unborn baby is not a person - so horrified by pictures of aborted babies?
Why do you complain to the moderators so that the pictures can be removed, so as to not offend your sensibilities?
Cowards?
Hypocrites?
Depraved?
All of the above? |

Points: 15,649, Level: 80 | Level up: 81%, 201 Points needed | | When my son was fourteen (ten yrs. ago, this one!!!) and in the youth group, there was a special presentation one evening by a lady named Kay.
She heads up a pro-life organization, and this is what she does to promote her stand...
She is talking you understand to young people between the ages of 12 and 18.
She tells them many a horror story, and does indeed quote some Scripture.
Then she goes on to pass around to her audience very graphic pictures of not only unborn babies developing en utero, but of aborted babies. The mangled and grotesque pictures of these.
My son, Justin, glanced at the first picture that was handed to him and stood up and went up to her and handed it back, even refusing to hand it to the guy sitting next to him.
He told this woman that when something is wrong, you don't need to convince people with sensational pictures. He told her that her doing that would make some people wonder if it was really wrong, cos then it would not need to be determined by shock appeal.
I don't know exactly how he worded it, but I do know he was very plainly articulating his own values. Stating his courageous message to this woman, he was met with opposition from the youth group leader. He came in by me before the service was over.
I gotta tell you, I admire my son. OD

Level up: 45%, 105 Points needed | | I 100% agree Jeff. No surprise there. People need to take a good hard look at what they support. I mean, these people have no problem using pics of our dead soldiers to promote there anti war campains. Whats the difference? If you cant stomach it, maybe you shouldnt support it. |

People who are pro-abortion, yet complain about these pictures are cowards and hypocrites. |
