TO WHOMEVER IT MAY CONCERN:
Abortion is the Anti-Christ's demonic parody of the Eucharist.
That's why it uses the same holy words 'This is my body' with
the blasphemous opposite meaning."
` Dr. Peter Kreeft

^ Forgive me, but what does the above have to do with Pope Francis at Georgetown?

THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE, SINCE YOU'RE NOT ONE OF THOSE FEW ON CAMPUS WHO ARE PRO-CHOICE. BUT THERE ARE OTHERS WHO ARE AND WHO ERRONEOUSLY BELIEVE THAT POPE FRANCIS IS SOFT ON HOLDING IT TO BE A GRIEVOUS SIN. STILL, YOU'RE RIGHT IN A WAY, SINCE IIT DOES REQUIRE SECONDARY CEREBRATION.

Turning a thread about the Pope and a scarf into a thread about abortion is a great example of the ridiculous insistence on talking 24/7 about gays and abortion that Pope Francis was against.

If you want to stop all the talking about it, see what you can do to help stop the hideous and savagely cruel practice of infanticide for a while and maybe you'll get the silence that you're seeking. Still, when put beside the horrifying statistic of 55 million babies killed in the womb or, worse, party out of it, all talk about, sir or madam, is cheap.

And allow me one more word: if you really think Pope Francis loves a Georgetown that embraces Hoyas for Choice, like Rick concerning "the waters," you've been grossly misinformed. That's the connection to the scarf that one would have thought obvious to even the meanest intelligence.

That's the connection to the scarf that one would have thought obvious to even the meanest intelligence. Forget H*yas for Choice and Hoyatalk, I think you need to start protesting "Casual Hoya". The casual lifestyle they promote is dangerous and reckless and causing all of this. Link : www.casualhoya.com/ |

The best way to reduce abortion rates is through comprehensive sex education and availability of contraceptives.

God preaches love, not hate. We should all follow his example, no matter what we are trying to say. That's what I learned at Georgetown.

quickplay quote: The best way to reduce abortion rates is through comprehensive sex education and availability of contraceptives.
That was the party line in the 60s and 70s. We were told this would eliminate unplanned pregnancies and obviate the "need" for abortion. Those who disagreed and said that stressing the ready availability of birth control devices would send the wrong message and encourage promiscuity were derided as old fashioned.
Contraceptives became widely advertised, openly displayed in drug stores, readily available in vending machines and even given away to school children. Sex education moved from the high school level to the upper grades of grammar school and then down to kindergarten.
The result: more than one million abortions a year over the past four decades. Illegitimate births more than quintupled. In the mid-60s, the out-of- wedlock birthrate was 7.7% overall, now it is more than 41%!
The advice in the quote at the top of this post has been demonstrably and devastatingly proven false.

Hmmm...I recall a friend's elderly aunt sending me a chain email that's been circulating since 2001, and I believe it contradicts you on this. I'll try to find it and make sure to post a copy for everyone to enjoy. |

quickplay - checked the site you referenced- it does not refute the numbers cited in my post- the source is Guttmacher, an affiliate of Planned Parenthood, and even it says more than 1 million abortions a year. After decades of "sex education and availability of contraceptive devices", what's your explanation?

In the mid-60s, the out-of- wedlock birthrate was 7.7% overall, now it is more than 41%!Is your issue the abortion rate, or the illegitimate birthrate? Abortion rates have declined since 1980. If your argument is really a moral case against abortion, then illegitimate birth rates should be something that you either celebrate or are willing to live with. |
