Yeah, it's horrifying to learn that an ideological organization would promote its ideology to its members. What a craaaaaazy concept!

The science IS clear. A fetus is a distinct, human entity that has the biological trait known as "life." Ask any doctor or biologist if a fetus is alive, if it is distinct from its mother, and if it is human. They will say yes to all three questions. The only reason they sometimes support abortion is because…

The "solution" provided by her not having the child is...the child. A side benefit, is that she and our culture don't have that person's blood on our hands, diminishing the value of our own lives. There is no such thing as "not being able to afford" a person. That doesn't exist. She might not be able to afford taking…

Is murder the solution for unwanted neighbors? No? Interesting double standard you have there.

the difference is that i put it all out there, for people to tear apart or dissect, or bolster. im still waiting for you to contribute to the conversation.

yeah, and men's worth is reduced to their jobs and status as a success object. it's a shitty world all around—not just within the religious establishment.

Men are also forced to dress modestly.

Gay people are about 2% of the population. It makes sense that they represent 2% of characters in fiction. Anything else is clearly driven by an agenda, and most people (creative or not) don't like agendas. They have worked within their own agenda to live in a world that accommodates them personally. It's not…

great retort. glad you felt obliged to share with the class.

That's because the murder of children is very clearly the larger issue. The definite death of a human being weighs less than the potential health issues for another. Are those health issues not serious? Of course not, but they pale starkly in comparison with the death of a human being. if Planned Parenthood wanted to…

That's been very different from my experience within the realm of religious education. The whole "women are whores" idea has little to do with whether they are sexually active or not. It's based around outdated ideas of what gives a woman value as a person, which cruel people are looking to undermine.

They're not protesting women's health. They are protesting infanticide. There's a bit of a difference. In fact, there's a massive fucking difference.

But people who scare people for murdering children probably don't.

I'm no democrat (nor a republican), but this is one thing I would support regardless of whether it was abused or used "fraudulently." The mothers aren't the one's benefitting. The children are. Since we're already paying for their meals at school and such, why not? I could see not spending a bunch of taxpayer money…

Can someone explain to me why an anti-sex-before-marriage policy is specifically anti-woman? The application of such a policy "only" to her in the past was because the other individual was not within the "jurisdiction" of the organization. It seems clear it should've been part of police jurisdiction, and (when we…

what are you even talking about? Im giving you insight into fucking back hair.

arent there enough posts about women's body hair to keep that discussion going? "What about the womens!?!?!"

i don't think you understand what you're commenting on. i said none of it is "real" (again, i use quotation marks to indicate that i'm using the op's proposed definition of the word. i'm not saying they don't exist. i further bolster this by citing them as preferences.

i typeset everything from tomes and textbooks to print magazines for a living, and have for over a decade. punctuation has always stood aside grammar—definitively.

i would never say that biology and genetics are disconnected. i'm not sure where you got that from my comments.
