During a pilgrimage to Rome in 2001, I accompanied a group of families as their chaplain. At the Fumicino airport, all eyes were on the children. One of the parents in the group remarked: "Yes, they would like to look at and admire children but not carry them" Thanks be to God that our moms carried us and here we are.
Pundits and experts argue in favor of freedom in promoting this "Plan B" pill, whose impact will be certainly detrimental to the life within the womb and finally there it is available over the counter. Pity those pharmacists who are coerced to sell them much against their will!
Is it a reflection of promiscuity or loose morals that has crept into our contemporary society. It makes one wonder. Already it has been a herculean task for parents to fight the media from the toll it has had on the morale of teenagers. Now Morning After Pill is the lethal weapon. Who knows who all will use it! But that it will turn the womb into tomb cannot be ruled out.
If all arguments against this morning after pill fail, this story of an agonising parent should be a clarion call to all the advocates of MAP and the future users of this human killer called MAP.
Whoever the advocates may be, teenagers need to be aware that "MAP" is not going to guarantee the safe passage for promiscuity. It's time that we listen to the wisdom of our predecessors that "sex within marriage alone is sacred". Anything else annihilates the very intent of the Creator.
Now that "MAP" is over the counter stuff, maybe they will pave way to a painless infanticide - a silent holocaust. If those who got pregnant would only approach a CRISIS PREGNANCY CENTER and see the "life within", perhaps that would change their attitude instead of depending on a quick fix that gives one the comfort and confidence of being "safe": safe from what? Good to ponder.
Can we be at least aware that if our mothers had attempted abortion, all of us would not be alive on this planet earth. May God protect the wombs much against the will of those are out to destroy what the wombs treasure.
You accused someone of personal attacks earlier, and here you are doing it.
What post?
Either it is, or it isn't? Where is the strength of one's convictions that it is an abortion?
Don't try to change the subject!
I'm on topic, are you?
You called FJ290 a coward. You are acting hypocritically.
Is it an abortion or not? OT.
Using a chemical to change the lining of the uterus, so an early human life cannot implant there, so it can grow, IS AN ABORTION.
You can believe whatever you want. But there is nothing scientifically or Biblically to prove it.
oops, ie., in re: to this pill to prove it.
Scientifically, life begins at conception. Pregnancy begins a short time later at implantation. THAT is scientific.
Neither the manufacturer of this pill nor the Catholic Church knows if it prevents implantation.
Which? Plan B, or the regular birth control?
This thread is about the Plan B pill isn't it?
It is. You weren't specific earlier.
Well considering the drug that comprises this drug and birth control pills as being the same what is the real diff?
Chemically, there is no difference. The dosage, however, is.
"Chemically, there is no difference. The dosage, however, is."
Does the higher dosage do other things?
It disrupts the menstrual period much more rapidly.
