Let's just bump this one again...for the babies, for the truth, and for all to see the idiocy of ...... uhhh....I don't quite know how to politely phrase this! Well, you all get the point, I'm sure.

[SpookBrat]

BUMP for your very "HONEST" and valuable opinions.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

"Abortion for convenience is a blight upon our nation, and like slavery before it, abortion eats at the character of our nation. I think a link can be made between the liberalization of abortion and the rise in "disposable marriages," and child abuse. When greedy self-interest at the expense of the rights of others becomes "constitutionally protected," should we wonder why spouses can be tossed aside, and children can be beaten senseless? Roe vs. Wade will one day collapse under the weight of its own illogic -- it was a terrible decision, not only morally, but in a legal sense. The sooner the better."

Hear hear!!!! I would like for ONE Doctor to step forward and show us the "medical necessity" for partial birth abortion.

I would like to be face to face with a woman who is thinking about an abortion. (I think I could talk them out of it. Just give me some pics to show them.. make it real to them, give them some legitimate alternative idea's, and they will find a better alternative 100 percent of the time, unless they are cold and heartless!! Lost souls so to speak.)

I would like to be able to educate teenagers. Yes.. 13 and up. I'd like to show them (boys and girls) what a fetus/baby looks like. What aborted babies look like. Horrible? You bet it is. But so is the reality of these babies fate. I honestly feel if they knew.. they just might abstain from sex, or at least be sexually responsible.

"I attended a work group yesterday made up primarily of public health advocates, and I have to say that individually, each is a fine individual, but collectively, they are parasites.

Emphasis added to the best point :o) and want to say personally I feel the statement "public health advocates".. is a misuse of title :o) LOL

Thanks for your great responses on this thread. You're a definite asset to us all!!

FRegards friend!!!!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

BTTT for a worthy fight!!! For the babies!!!

[glory]

I'm coming in late, but I agree with all of you about the pics. When I was pro-abort I never was brave enough to look at those photos, I knew what they would show and yet still chose to live in ignorance over something I would not choose for my own children. When I finally did and went through a lot more soul searching, I realized I couldn't justify such barbarism for ANYONE, not just me. To do so would lower me to the status of any number of rapists, murderers, and thier apologists throughout history. How anyone can see the reality of abortion and then hear the reality of what young women go through who are pressured into this decision or not given accurate information before hand and then still support it, well I can not understand this type of person anymore than I could understand a Bundy or a Stalin or a Hitler.

[glory]

Speaking of which and with you expertise in the medical field, is thier any resource for linking up with an OB or gyn that is pro life or who at least will not perform abortions? I may be needing the services of an OB soon;-) and I'd like to support one who has taken a stand against abortion!

[glory]

Vets, I think a strong tool to give women a reality check when going for an abortion would be a 3-D ultrasound! I'm sure you have seen them and they are quite compelling. I will be happy to post a link to a site with a # of pics of babies as early as 8 weeks in all thier 3-D glory!

[Brad’s Gramma]

Thanks for a beautiful post. Welcome to the RIGHT side of the road!!!! BTTT for the babies!!!!

[J.R.R. Tolkien]

Welcome to the side of Life.

[J.R.R. Tolkien]

Your local Crisis Pregnancy Center could probably refer you to a pro-life OB-GYN.

[J.R.R. Tolkien]

You've made at least three animals cry.

[glory]

Oh I've been "here" for a while now--well a few years at least. My whole transition to pro-life coincided with reassessing many things I thought true about life. In many ways not too many years ago, the things I would have said and advocated would have warranted a barf alert on free republic;-)

[glory]

Thanks...I may be pg with #3 and we are living in a new area so I just was not even sure where to find a dr with these beliefs since I had not looked for such a qualification before.

[mafree]

Pro-life bump.

[He Rides A White Horse]

One word........

....'Glory'

So much human methane should be considered a security risk to the President.

[bjcintennessee]

Killing is killing. Which part of "thou shalt not kill" do you not understand?

I did not respond immediately after reading your response, so that I could give your views more thought. With all due respect, I still disagree with you. Many people have a problem with any form of contraceptive because it interferes with life's processes the way God meant them to be.

Yet nature daily allows thousands, maybe millions of joined cells not to survive because they do not attach to the womb. It does not bother my conscience to follow nature's lead and allow a woman to take a pill that disallows the joined cells to adhere to the womb. If there are health problems for, as you said, making the uterin wall a toxic place, then currently that is unfounded and a problem for science to solve if it does prove to be a problem.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

I will be happy to post a link to a site with a # of pics of babies as early as 8 weeks in all thier 3-D glory!

Thanks Glory. I would appreciate the link. I used to have one.. but lost it when I had to do a total restore once :o(

The pictures are horrid to see. But when you get people who are incapable of opening their minds by words along.. a picture can say a million words.

A "LINK" would not offend those who don't want to look (even some pro-lifers can't take seeing them)... but would allow us to send people there who just can't seem to phanthom that they are advocating killing babies.

In many instances.. I think people actually HAD an abortion, be they the woman who physically did the deed,..or the man who agreed to it. And that is (the guilt) why they try so hard to defend it.

Thats just my theory.

I also think there are many many men, who knowing their girlfriend or even wife was pregnant,.. would offer to care for the child for life if given the choice. Many men never know. I think that is another outrage of this issue.

I imagine as J.R.R. Tolkien said, you could call a "Crisis Pregnancy Center" and ask for a prolife OBGYN. Or.. you could call the different OB-Gyn offices,..and ask them if the physician is prolife. But I would suggest you state why your asking first. They may be hesitant to offer up that kind of opinion on the phone. The lunatics are out there in all aspects of this issue (meaning, the ones who would be so hypocritical as to harm someone who opposes their ideology).

A Church group might also have knowledge of Prolife Docs.

Hope this helps in some small manner. And if you don't mind.. could you freepmail me the link too? I've been really busy with a sick hubby.. who just may have spread his flu to me (though un-intentional..as he is a doll!!)

Thanks friend.. and God Bless!!!
