Just because some laws overlap with the Bible's ten commandments doesn't mean fuck all. You might as well claim that some laws are based on Harry Potter.

It is my firm belief that people who are deliberately stupid, false morals hypocrite assholes, murderers, fanatics and fascists in general should not reproduce. Therefore, I would applaud abortion for anyone who supports Hitler, Franco, Idi Amin, Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao Tse Tung and their ilk. Hell, I even support retroactive abortion in those cases. -- Come down off the cross We can use the wood Tom Waits, Come On Up To The House Quote

Actually, my wife had an ultrasound after she was pregnant three months and, although her tummy was big, the baby was only half the size of my thumb. As most women would choose to have an abortion long before they are three months pregnant, this is just a waste of time for the woman in question and a gross indignity. Martin Quote

As noted earlier, Planned Parenthood provides reproductive counseling and other services. They do it without regard to income level. Again you come out with these lies, so casually, as though they were truth. You do not know. You do not know what evolution is and you spread lies about it. You do not know about Planned Parenthood and you spread lies about it. It appears that you lie about things that you don't like. That's not honest, that's not Christian, and it does your causes no good. Why should anyone believe you about anything, Mr. Slanderous Liar? <snip more lies> Quote

If you re-read my above message, you should note that I used the term "this newsgroup" (not "these newsgroups") in my message. I did not realize that my message was crossposted in lots of newsgroups when I posted the message in the jehovah wit. newsgroup.

They told that LIE so as to make it more likely that women would agree to have abortions. It's much harder to convince a pregnant woman to have an abortion once they realize that they have a living a baby in their womb. That is the reason the ACLU and perhaps other organizations such as Planned Parenthood want to have the law overturned that requires women seeking abortion to see 3D ultrasounds of their babies. They know that once those women see those pictures, they will decide NOT to have an abortion. Planned Parenthood derives money from abortions so they want as many women as possible to have abortions. That's why they want that law related to ultrasounds overturned. Does anyone know the net worth of Planned Parenthood. I heard a preacher say that it's over 1 billion dollars. jason Quote

It's much harder to > convince a pregnant woman to have an abortion once they realize that they > have a living a baby in their womb. Thats why the reproductive fascists want these laws every place they can get them. That goal is right up there with posting the Apostles' Creed in our courthouses. That is the reason the ACLU and > perhaps other organizations such as Planned Parenthood want to have the > law overturned that requires women seeking abortion to see 3D ultrasounds > of their babies. The reason that they oppose it is that it infringes on a woman's right to privacy and it brings costs into the system that are better spent on reproductive and other health counseling services. They know that once those women see those pictures, they > will decide NOT to have an abortion. That is their sincere hope. They obviously do not expect that they will ever need an abortion or that their daughters will. Planned Parenthood derives money from > abortions so they want as many women as possible to have abortions. That's > why they want that law related to ultrasounds overturned. Does anyone know > the net worth of Planned Parenthood. Their Stated Purpose: "to provide comprehensive reproductive and complementary health care services in settings which preserve and protect the essential privacy and rights of each individual; to advocate public policies which guarantee these rights and ensure access to such services; to provide educational programs which enhance understanding of individual and societal implications of human sexuality; to promote research and the advancement of technology in reproductive health care and encourage understanding of their inherent bioethical, behavioral, and social implications." They provide services regardless of ability to pay. Let's see now - you don't like evolutionary theory, so you lie about it. You don't like Planned Parenthood so you lie about it. You lie so easily that there is no reason to believe you on anything. You even claim you didn't know you were cross-posting, and got upset when there were responses in other NGs. Once again you lie. I heard a preacher say that it's over > 1 billion dollars. Your pastor was lying. Check out http://charityreports.give.org/Public/Report.aspx?CharityID=626 You appear to get your information from preachers who care less about the truth than you do. Your credibility is dropping by the nanosecond. Why don't you find the truth out for yourself instead of being spoonfed questionable information by people with an agenda? You are acting like a spiritual zombie, brainlessly marching to the tune banged out by some ignoramus with an axe to grind. Believe what you want, agree or disagree with what you want, but at least know the facts. Wake up, man! Quote

I heard a lady from Planned Parenthood use that term when when she was telling a high school class in 1975 about all of the services provided by Planned Parenthood. You may want to google "mass of tissue" to find out more information. In reason years, I have heard preachers mention that term in relation to sermons about abortion. One reason that I am an advocate of the Pro-Life is because listening to sermons preached by women that have been the victims of abortion. One woman said that shortly after the abortion, she would hear a baby crying and wake up to tend the baby. After she was fully awake, she said that she would start crying for over an hour because she realized that her baby was dead. This happened almost every night for about one year. Other women have stated in their sermons that they had severe depression related to abortions. > > It's much harder to > > convince a pregnant woman to have an abortion once they realize that they > > have a living a baby in their womb.

As noted earlier, Planned > Parenthood provides reproductive counseling and other services. They do > it without regard to income level. You are correct. However, Planned Parenthood earns millions of dollars per year as a result of abortions. I heard one preacher say that the net worth of Planned Parenthood is over one billion dollars. One preacher referred to money earned from abortions as "blood money". I heard one preacher say that Planned Parenthood even earns money by selling body parts of aborted babies. > Again you come out with these lies, so casually, as though they were > truth.
