We have freedom of religion.. I am not christian, but both of my parents raised me well. I never saw the inside of a daycare facility. I went to preschool 3 hours a day, and that is it. My mother is a nurse, my dad a professor in college pt... My parents worked their schedules to make sure that they raised us, and not some strangers. I don't think abortion is ok because my parents did not raise me, I think abortion is okay because what I do inside of my body is my business. |

| nightangel, you are just further proof of the small-mindedness that christianity breeds. Look around the world; look outside your window for real. Stop viewing the world through the sinful lens of christianity; and see the people of the world and their choices as part of the wonder of being human.
Just because you believe that christianity is right absolutely does not mean that it is. I can believe that the grass is orange all I want; but it is still green. You, my friend, believe the grass is orange. The world is not always perfect; and "imperfect" desicions do not make us lesser beings; they are expereinces we grow from. Do you believe everything you see in the news; do you take to heart every single word you read, every single word a person in power says? Of course you don't. So why do you believe every word in the bible? It was written by humans, not god. Even if he was dictating what he wanted written, that doesn't necessarily mean it was written correctly. Even our constitution is "interpereted", and not taken literally. Do not believe what they tell you! Explore the more of the world as I have, and see truth with your own eyes! |

eiri I don't understand well what you mean about seeing the world for real and see the people of the world and their choices as a wonder of being human. Let me tell you what I have seeing eiri. I saw my brother with a bright future an engineer graduated with honors getting into being homosexual and making the choice of using drugs, real bad ones and then see him laying in a bed at a comma waiting for certain death at the age of 33. |

| i'm going to be 33 in a few months and it makes me want to cry to think this is all that my brother lived. Unfortunatelty he did not had a second chance. I don't think of him as a lesser being, not of him and not anyone else. I believe we do are all the same. |
| Quote: |
| regarding the bible well that is the word of god. And you are right it was written by humans but with t he big difference is that it was inspired by the holy spirit. The bible is not a book that it is meant to be interpretated by the exact words. |
| Quote: |
| to understand the messages you need to have knowlede of the life at the time, the culture at the time and all that. The amazing thing of the bible I personally find is how it covers everything. |
| Quote: |
| any doubt that I could possibly have regarding anything in life the answer is right there. It is impressive to me. See eiri in science 1 1 1 =3 but in the christian religion 1 1 1=1. |

| I think we the christians are then the ones who are more open minded. |
| Quote: |
| i am a person of faith eiri and if you look at the definiton of the word faith it is about believing in what you can't see or prove. |
| Quote: |
| all I can only tell you is that I love the .Lord and that .He fullfills my life. And nothing is this world can replace this fullfillment for me. :) |

| there are many religions, and people of many different faiths. I happen to believe in buddhist teachings, and it has helped me to be a more open minded and patient woman. Buddhists have respect for all beliefs and cultures. It is different from believeing in a "god" , but we do believe people will recieve punishment from evil doing. Aka karma.. What goes around comes around.. A simplified way of saying it, but still very true. Regardless of religion, being raised in a loving home is most important. |

you homophobe!! You fuking homophobe! I know a lot of homosexuals who are not into drugs, and who are not dying. Go shove yourself in a hole, christian slave. You are a despicable excuse for a person. It is people like you who come over to my group of friends and tell them they are going to hell just because they're in love, because they're gay. God doesn't give a damn about your gender preference in love.
you think less of him because he's gay.
then why do so many of you do just that?
it covers stem cell research and planetary exploration? Where? Where?
so, that just means you christians don't know how to add.
sure! In your minds, everyone who isn't you is going to hell! Very non-discrimanatory there!
my mother is a woman of faith, but she's not a fool.
i love what I believe to be some kind of force up there too. I call him god because i'm used to calling it that, but maybe it doesn't have a name. I feel peace when talking to it, even if i'm just talking to myself. Faith in something is very strong, but unfortunatly it's hard to change a belief, and far easier to change a thought. You can learn new things that change your thoughts and the facts of things. Changing a belief is far harder because you're asking people to stop believing in something they've had to put so much blind faith into. When you blindly believe in something, the last thing you want is to be disproven. People kill over beliefs. |

| i know it is demoralizing when we read posts of people aborting babies. I know when your read such things you ask yourself but how it is possible that someone could possibly want to terminate the life of their own unborn children? This is the world we live in. Not only that but if we click on the news we read more horrible things. Drugs, more not a nice acts, roberies, war. Where is the hope??? Our hope sunshine does not lie in laws or a new president. Our hope sunshine lies in god changing the hearts of people.
Most of these girls who abort children don't know god. They were not raised in a christian home, nor they received a christian education. Most of them for sure did not had parents who watched them neither. If this is the case how they learn then? Through mistakes. When they have an unintended pregnancy, when they get an std, when their bf leaves them etc. Therefore sunshine we can't judge them. I have to say that I admire you for not giving up on your child when you got pregnant. You chose to take the narrow road and that is admirable. For so many years I saw my friends and so many others taking the wide road and I questioned jesus why do I have to be good when everybody seems to not care? But jesus didn't told us to follow them sunshine, he told us to follow .H.I.M. Hope you always have faith in .Him |

woah lucy, settle the medical question down. Maybe you should take something to calm you woman. Nightangel never said all homosexuals take drugs you nut. She said her brother turned to homosexual and started drugs. Shame on you for making such an assumption. I believe you owe nightangel an apology for calling her a homophobe. Goodness! And to acuse her of seeing her brother of less of a person is putting words in her mouth and making you look like a nutjob. Please think before you speak in order to avoid annoying, explosive behavior. Thanks. |

you dear, could not see truth if it bit you in the a.Ss. You just sit back and discredit any religion that is of topic and bash .Jesus. You call people who respect religion "bible thumpers" or whatever you have it on the given day. You continue to disrespect religion. You health forum and moan that people constantly refer to religion regarding the topic of abortion, but really, your the one bringing it up more than anyone here. Zip it would you please? |

thank you sunshine, totally agreed. Even if I were truly a homophobe why do you judge me? If you respect people that have abortions then you should respect homophobic people too. Homophobes are human beings too that make mistakes just like everyone else. |

| but let me tell you a word about gays for the record. There is good gays and there is bad gays. |
| Quote: |
| I never had a problem with my brother being gay, I never told him he was going to hell or anything like that. You have a very wrong idea about christians judging homosexuals. |
| Quote: |
| i am catholic and the church I go has a ministry for gays. Made by gays/lesbians and for gays/lesbians. True christians do not reject homosexuals, or abortionits etc. Christians are not perfect people neither. I am sorry that you think so bad about christians. |
| eiri wrote: |
| no there aren't. There are gays, and there are gays, and that's it. Some flaunt it more than others, some are more quiet about it. And that's just like straight or bisexual people. You can't be a "bad staight person" because of your sexuality, so how the hell can you be a bad gay?

ever heard of peadophiles/rapists so yes you can be a bad straight person because of your sexuality.My best mate is homosexual and even he admits that some gays give others a bad name. |
| nightangel73 wrote: | ||||
very true. My brother said the same and I remember he telling about how he had to be careful because there were gays that just wanted him to have sex and that's it and then dump him. Just exactly like hetero men use women for sex and then dump them. |
