Though I am against abortions, I am equally against violent methods to stop them. Such as bombing abortion clinics. I am especially frustrated when those who do such things then say "It's what Jesus wanted". I want to see them tell Jesus that on judgment day.

Nonetheless, I completely support nonviolent methods of pursuading pro-choicers or advocates of abortion. Some are able to do so with speaches, some with testimonies, and some with videos.

Yet, pro-choicers are often especially angry when one uses footage as a pursuasive tool, as some have done on Yahoo! Answers. In some cases the question will be as simple as the following:

"Pro-choicers, what do you think of this video?
....link...."

Pro-choicers then react as if the one who asked this question was a barbarian or violent. When, in reality, the asker asked a simple question and let the video do the talking. Why do pro-choicers have such an exceptionaly strong reaction to abortion videos?

Thank you for all and any answers.

they can't force people to follow their beliefs? We get JWs at our front door constantly asking us to go to conventions and go to their churches and crap like that. If I don't wanna believe in God I'm not gonna believe in him. I'm a Wiccan meaning I practice majick and spells and whatnot, and there is no way I will ever go back to Christianity. If God loves his children so much why do we suffer the way we do?

I was at someone's house and before they ate, they said grace. Well, I'm a protestant and they are cathlic. They all said the same thing at the same time and did the cross on their chest. My religion doesn't do that so I just stood there quietly and said a quiet prayer to myself. They asked me later, "aren't you religious?" I said I was, but not cathlic and didn't do that, but then they started drilling me on my faith. I felt out of place and like I didn't belong.

I am not exactly blaming this on anyone particularly, I live in Houston, Texas and crime here has gone like drastically up. Kids getting killed like teenagers {gangs, drugs and stuff}. Whos fault is it parents or the authorities? We were a city take took in a lot f evacuees and I have heard of a lot of crines being commited by them but also people that have lived here forever. I have kids and love them and do not want them living to long in this. I bought a new home but planning to move to a smaller town like down south like mcallen, texas.

I have several female friends who are bisexual. I understand women are more sensitive and deeper, seeing less superficial qualities, than men. I easily understand the physical attraction of women. By knowing these women well and through in-depth discussions, I realize where they're coming from in their female relationships from a mental, emotional and physical aspect. But they've tried to explain to me the power exchange dynamics that occur between them and that I don't get. But above all that, I cannot understand how a woman can be attracted to both sexes or switch back and forth--no matter what great qualities the person may have. I've searched the deepest recesses in my mind and I have no feelings for other men--there is no physical attraction there. Guess that's why I'll never get that aspect.

Zinedine Zidane, jeden z nejlepších fotbalistů všech dob, ukončil reprezentační kariéru. Ve dvaatřiceti letech. "Bylo to pro mě hodně těžké rozhodnutí, ale myslím si, že nastal ten správný čas v reprezentaci skončit," citovala Zidana agentura Reuters. "Je mi to moc líto," reagoval Raymond Domenech, trenér Francie.

I sort of don't know where i stand anymore.

At one end i feel that God will always help people with their burdens. But on the other end i look around at "real life" and feel like it is one big sad joke.

I know i shouldn't question the actions of GOD but i really am starting to wonder.

I see time and time again people who don't believe in God bash Christians using science, I see Christians bash non-believers quoting scripture.

All the time thinking to myself, both sides have merits and flaws.

What do you do when you are the rock stuck in that hard place?
