To think that he wouldn't be involved with the city that he lives in, and in that political scene, Well, of course he was involved with the city.

i'm not complaining, per se, that he does and doesn't believe in conception being the moment of life, i'm saying that since he does, it's hard to think that he would be for abortion, and absolutely horrifying to think that he would be for partial-birth abortions, where the baby's heart is beating and it is undeniably alive. It says that sometimes he believes abortion is murder and other times he doesn't, but that he's down with it, either way. Also, if he's undecided, who's to say he won't 'get a conscience' and go pro-life?

And let me get this straight ~ i'm not against anyone who doesn't want to get pregnant. But stuff happens, and hey! If you forgot to take your pills, or you left your diaphragm at home, just don't have sex. Easy. And if you can't control yourself? Guess what? Having sex makes babies. If you get pregnant, it's YOUR responsibility, not all of society's.

And for rape victims? i do believe it ought to be available. But we're talking such a low percentage that it becomes an exception to the rule.

If you think for one moment that Jesus was saying that 'Hey, folks, that's okay ~ go ahead and SLAUGHTER your children, by the thousands, because I will take them up to heaven' ~ you're whack.

And here's something else that y'all don't get about Christians ~ we believe that with the Lord, we can deal with anything. i've known women who were raped and got pregnant. You know what they had to say about it?

"The Lord took something absolutely horrible and turned it into something SO beautiful."

They weren't blaming Him for it happening, because He told us that stuff was going to happen and He promised that He'd help us through all of it.
