By the way this woman makes motivational speeches based on her disability. Clearly a public figure making her living off her looks. Maybe a nice pc forum for low information bunnies.

I kind of enjoyed Man of Steel for a similar reason. The Planet Krypton condemned itself by genetic modification. The ruling council ended up being a bunch of fools, shut down their own chance at space colonization, then denie that there were any problems up until their planet blew itself to pieces. If anything, Man of Steel I have to be thankful for in terms of renewing the issues poses by Gattaca.

-—Mt Bunny is right!! You are a bit of a TWIT-—even “okies” should be more polite. The lady pictured is a an amazing human being. I have heard her speak-—she does self esteem seminars. She is loaded with self confidence and is a beautiful human being. FOR SHAME!!!!-

Can't answer, can you? You're not "PC", but you are so afraid to answer:

You like to call yourself "Pro-Life", don't you?

People like you make my job hard. You ought to try it sometime. Try telling a mother that she should have her baby, even though it may not be what she thinks of as perfect.

She has heard people like you growing up. She's heard Downs babies called "tards". She's seen the jokes people like you make.

Why should she believe me when she has had a lifetime of people like you, making fun of what God has made?

So, what is the answer?

You make fun of and trash-talk what God made, adding to Pro-Death culture, and call yourself "Pro-Life", don't you?

I think those with inherited problems that can be seen remind us of the deformities of our own souls, hence the reaction.

My nephew has Williams Syndrome plus had a stroke the night before his open heart surgery at 2 years old. He loves music and plays video games when not working. My sister is a saint.

Wasn’t the subject matter genetics, and not abortion?

Sorry your job is hard, at least you have a supporter.

I see you refuse to answer. It must be terrible to live such a small life, being a keyboard commando, making fun of people because God
created them differently, belittling them to make yourself feel better.

You want to pretend that genetics and making fun of the handicapped have nothing in common with abortion.

If that allows you to sleep at night, so be it.

You won’t call yourself pro-life.

Your inability to show the bare minimum of human decency tells me all I need to know.

There is so much beauty in God’s creation and in those society deem less than perfect. Your family is blessed. Keeping you in our prayers.

Bunny, I’m not going to stoop to personal arguments on this news forum Bunny. In my humble option Bunny, the shrillness and I gotcha’s is exactly why Obama is in the White House. Bunny let’s grow up and get over it.
