Yes, it is fantasy, and fiction, to believe you can have a committed boy friend, that is a life time partner, etc. As if these are better than marriage.
Before I retired I worked for a fairly large Consulting Engineering firm, after a few years I began to notice those that lived together, you knew the first names of their partners, but most often you did not know the first names of their wife or husband. The reason, those living together (not married) had to refer to their partners by their first name, they could say, “my wife” or “my husband.”
It has been my experience that those committed boy friends, or girl friends were most often,at the best short committments.
Doing that which is right in our own eyes will never bring us to the righteousness of God!
It could not have been said any better!!!!!!
Lucy’s digusting, but I just wanted to wish every mother to have a Happy Mother’s Day, even the murderous bitch who wrote the article.
I really like your male rant.
Men Unite!
“... badge of shame ...”
And .. pray tell what other “badge” should MURDERERS be wearing ..??
In my view, “committed boyfriend” (or girlfriend) just means “hasn’t moved on yet.” What else could it be?
I saw the ultrasound of 2 of mine, and they both had empty sacs. There weren’t babies in the sacs. Empty. Just a sac of nothing.
They were not babies.
I’m a Christian, and I know very few women who have had abortions. I’m sure there are some, but they aren’t proud of it.
There is no feeling of the nobility of man in this woman. For Christians, man is a glorious being, made in the image of God. For this woman, they are invasive “blobs”. It’s like she is sowing death into life.
“We do not have to wear a badge of shame because we all made the choice not to have a child.”
It isn’t that you chose not to have a child, but rather that you paid someone to kill the child you already had.
Actually surprisingly in her case she says she went on to have 4 children
Thank all of you for your stories.
My son was involved in a cable talk show in Austin a few years ago as a young teen. The topic was post-abortion trama.
The first call-in was male, who shared his story about allowing a girlfriend to abort nine years earlier. He said he never got over it. Everytime he saw a child about the age his would have been, his heart broke.
After that, all the call-ins were males who had had similiar experiences. It has had a profound effect on my son.
The victims of abortion go way beyond the baby.
Islamic crazies strap bombs to themselves, go into crowded places with women and children and blow themselves and others up. We don't need to understand that. We just need to condemn it for the horror that it is. Whether the killing is done in a public market or in the sanctity of a sterile abortion clinic does not change the horror.
Lucy is correct. Except I wouldn't imply it, I'd actually say it.
Something I wrote in the 70’s...Hope she reads it and takes it to heart...
Ive got a son that never came.
One that flew kites and arrow-planes.
One that danced in the springtime rains.
Dont know why or whos to blame.
But Ive got a son that never came.
Bullfrogs and butterflies hell never see.
Hell stroll through an open field, but not with me.
There was a time his heart beat strong.
It beat with rhythm as in a song.
And to me his love belonged.
Dont know why or what went wrong.
But there was a time his heart beat strong.
Its left in my mind and my heart will tease.
Theres no love in my life for my son and me.
Before I had a chance to fight.
They took my son up a flight.
To a room to take his life.
Dont know why I had no rights.
Before I had a chance to fight.
Then five months early they stole him from his womb.
Laid him in a corner and watched him die in his tomb.
But for one split second I thought I heard him cry...
Im gonna have to leave you now. I love you Dad. Goodbye.
She is lying to herself. "made the choice not to have a child" would mean not having sex, or using some kind of contraception or sterilization. Killing another human while still in the womb is entirely different and should require different language. But she needs the comfort of a lie.
She will have to face herself some day and when she does it will be with self-loathing like nothing she can imagine.
I believe it is impossible to have an abortion and not be riddled with deep and profound heartache. I believe the SCOTUS upholding Roe v. Wade was a horror to all women and their unborn babies.
