Thanks you for an accurate quote, even if you did have to violate their copyright to do it.

But where is the quote where I said this: "He posted his intention to invade every abortion debate board "out there" to "educate" all of us and bring us to see the light of the pro-life side. "

Ah... so who was this "great person" who made up that particular definition, and does he work for any dictionary publishing company?

If not, what gives him/her the authority to dictate what the term means?

Ilk means "kind" or "type". Rolling Eyes

As has been stated many times, this topic was not made to repeat endlessly the dictionary definition of pro-life; it was made to gain people's INTERPRETATIONS of pro-life. Maybe if you'd read the first post, you'd know that.

Okay, I'm just curious..... what purpose do "interpretations" serve that definitions don't serve?

I have posted a short list of the people who define what pro life means in the other thread you asked for and if you really were pro life you would not ofeven had to ask for it as for what gives them the authority to dictate what it means how about them being the founders of the movement

Hard-core pro-lifers who want to make abortion illegal no matter the consequences.

You figure it out. Maybe you'll be able to join this topic in a mature and intelligent manner once you do.

I used your exact post vater. Not all of it perhaps but your exact words. Shall I continue? I think the refreshing view of your true intent feelings is very obvious.
Perhaps you'd care instead for the post in which you in your "pro life" best defended faithman and his desire to shoot me without a blindfold then pretend that there was nothing wrong with that.
More "pro life" education perhaps?

This was recently posted by Maggie on GN: I thought it was particularly apt in for the 'lets invade pc boards" crowd..FYI.. this a debate board; not a pc board.

It is easy to claim support for the unborn. They do not have opinions and they do not have actual needs that the so called supporter must provide. In picking the unborn to support they can claim to actually be doing something while all the while it is the woman wh is carrying the pregnancy that bears all the costs and risks.

In claiming to support the post born you might be called out to actually provide assistance both in time effort and cost. It is not limited to months but you may be involved for years or decades.

Supporting the postborn may put you in conflict with what your fantasy for them is and what they as folk with voices might want.

Besides the prolife movement has never been about babies born or unborn, it is about exerting control over women in regards to sex, life styles and opportunities. Womens ability to bear children has always been used to keep women from competeing on a equal footing. In the name of protecting walking incubators women have been excluded from most opportunities outside of the home.

It has been my experience that most of the most vocal prolifers are either women who want an excuse not to compete or men who are afraid of competition from women.

I have always found it telling that these people claim ownership of all unborn ZEFs wanting to enforce their percieved claim on the zef by insisting that the pregnancy be continued, then when the infant is born (unless theres a buck to be made off of an adoption) they feel they have absolutely no responsibility for the infants well being. (in fact their only interest in the post born child seems to be in condemnation of the childs mother if she does not fit their ideal).

to bad I didn't ask your opinion blonde. The post and point is valid to the current discussion at hand. Are you or are you not debating the legitimacy of the point? Or do you agree?

That is my post from GN. If you want I can repost it here verbatim as part of this disscussion.

That would be silly and repitious, but if you want I will.

I really don't even know what they where "argueing about" I didn't follow all of it.. I just think it was a little silly, But to each their own..
From what I get most of what's his name? "K.. whatever" says he sounds pro-life.. so to answer your question, I don't think it would matter..
