I pray for those who lost their lives, I pray for their families. I also pray for those aborted children, the mothers who had the abortions, and mostly for our country to overturn Roe V. Wade.

As far as prosletyzing, well, just gotta do it. You know, the Holy Father says its our J-O-B. I happen to think the world needs it, and there seems to be alot of it going around lately. Jesus even tells us to do it. If your a Christian its your job too.

I didnt think you'd believe what Mother Teresa said, or Our Lady, you dont have too, I'm not shoving it down anyones throat. Its just what I believe. And I try to do it the way its supposed to be done, with love and gentleness. I'm not always good at that part but I'm working on it.

I like some of the things that President Bush has done to move us away from abortion. Other things hes done I dont like. I'll keep praying he keeps us going in the right direction. Mr. Ridge may very well be a good pick for defending the home front but his stance on abortion is in direct opposition to the church to which he says he belongs. Something is wrong with that.

I don't agree, and as somebody that is pro-life, I'll tell you why. I don't want ANY MORE GOVERNMENT CONTROL OVER OUR LIVES THAN IS NECESSARY.

I don't know how to make it anymore clear than that. We let the government starting making decisions based along religious lines, one way or the other we are going to get screwed in the end. It is quite simple. If the government feels it's entitled to remove the choice of abortion, then it will feel it's entitled to remove other choices it deems wrong as well. And then we are screwed.

No I do NOT have to prosewwltize. Neither do I take kindly to others shoving their beliefs down my throat, and that is pecisely what your and other people's posts have turned into here. You wouldn't take kindly to my telling you that that what you belive is wrong and sermonizing to you. Yet, you have no compccunction to do that to me and others. You aren't the worst offender , but you do offend me .

As far as Ridge is concerned, what he believes or doen't is between him and GOD. This cabinet ost has absoltely NOTHING what so ever with abortion. He can NOT make any sort of end run about that ; it is beyond his venue.

For others, who are worried about the " what ifs " of the future, I say, we better worry about the here and now, at this particular time. If we dond't, and concentrate on the extranious, then we might as well surrender to the Taliban.
