I realize that my agenda is not modest. Yet many changes I support do not involve legislation or regulation at all, but rather changes in private-sector policies that accompany a change of heart. She may have a dream, I have a reality spasm ... America will never return to moral living and valuing life again until a terrible catastrophe causes the selfish 'meism' to be extinguished. Too many factors now conspire to draw common folk into materialism and selfish pursuit of indulgence and pleasure.

Add to this.......

I have a dream that America's courts will STOP the destruction of the American Family with it's pro-feminist views.

I have a dream that our lawmakers will recognize that America will not (and should not) prosper if we adopt gay-marriage proposals and divorce-friendly laws.

Thank you potlatch...
What a great picture. Imagine, them saying that, that little soul is not a living being/person.

Better yet, the courts just return to their proper place as enumerated in the Constitution and STOP MAKING NEW LAWS!

It's a clever picture, but it's about as fake as fake can get. It's with great amusement that I've encountered people who naively believed that such a picture would even be possible. In reality, the child's foot would be behind a uterine wall, abdominal muscles, layers of fat, etc etc. The kind of definition as seen in this photo would be quite impossible.

Real, or fake, It's still a great picture, and there
is a live being in that woman, that deserves protection.

Perhaps you're right Melas, I'm not sure where the picture came from but I imagine I've carried more children than you have.

At a total weight of 116 when my first child was born, I didn't have much abdominal fat and could watch the little 'peak' of a foot, a hand, or an elbow, move across my stomach.

Not that perfect little foot, but perhaps that was a rare picture and that's why it was on the web.

I'm glad you were amused.

If you won't take my husband's word for it, you can take my word for it. It's impossible. I've carried four children to term, and I've completely lost count of the number of deliveries I've attended, including a large number of cesarean births that likewise, I am unable to count. You only have to witness the layers of tissue, muscle, and more tissue, peeled back during a c-section, once to realize that this photograph is a complete forgery.

I don't know why your making an issue about a picture that you may think unreal. Other then running off, you can't prove it one way or the other. Thickness of uterine wall, abdominal fat, or water means little or nothing, because anything is possible, and so is that picture!

The thread is about "Pro-life" and that's the main issue. You're either Pro-Life, or Pro-Murder. Take the thread for what it's worth, or leave it.

Satan is running things right now, and he wants no part of your dream.

Why is this happening?

Because too many have decided they don't need God, and are attempting to manage life by themselves.
