To those who HAVE adopted children, I respect you (with the possible exception of the person who called me a wiseass just because I asked). The rest of you can shut up until you do something for these precious children.

Why do you all assume that all of these babies will be adopted into loving homes. The ones who do are lucky lucky lucky and bless the people who adopted them... but what about the ones that don't? Do you just wait until they grow up to be criminals and execute them?

1. Yes. This is not the taking of innocent life for the sake of convenience.
2. I believe a woman should serve her husband just as a husband should love his wife and give his life for her just as Christ died for the church.
3. None, parsons turned me down simply because I have Cystic Fibrosis (You wouldn't know it by playing basketball with me). Meanwhile my mother raised my two adopted sisters after my supposedly healthy father died of a heart attack shortly after adopting the second sister.
You know if my wife where a single lesbian she would have no problem adopting children though would she?

I oppose killing another innocent human being except in self-defense. Thus, I oppose abortion unless the mother's life is in danger. While the death penalty is technically for those guilty of a heinous crime, I do not support it unless there is no other way to ensure the safety of others. I do not believe that a woman should be subservient to her husband, which is utterly unrelated to the topic of abortion. I have not adopted any children.
You posted, "The rest of you [who have not adopted children] can shut up until you do something for these precious children." This statements asserts that those who have not adopted children cannot have an opinion regarding abortion. Have you adopted children? If not, according to your premise, you cannot have an opinion on abortion. However, it really doesn't matter because your statement is untrue. People who have not adopted children DO have opinions about abortion.

1) I do believe the death penalty was alive and ongoing during the age of the Law. After the fulfillment of the Law, I do not see how we can determine the heart of a person well enough to execute this type of judgement.
2) yes, I believe my husband is the head of our household. It is a job that I do not wish to have to take over. By being the head of our household he is biblically responsible for so much more than I could type here.
3) We have five natural born children and one adopted child. We adopted her when she was 15. A very difficult age to adopt and start raising a child, and she has since become of age and went back to the world that she came from. We still hope and pray that the few years we were allowed to raise her, that she learned a few things and will come back to God and live the life he planned for her.

I am against abortion
!. yes I support the death penalty----I believe one must pay for their crimes...what ever the punishment is...that is taking responsibility for ones actions
2.I believe that the husband is the head of the house like Jesus is to the church....but that doesn't mean under his thumb..big difference
3. I have 2 of my own and have not adopted....But I am a big
believer in one needs to take responsibility for ones own actions....if you cant say no and keep yourself pure then you must take what comes from that and be a grown up and take responsibility... ...if one wants to adopt that is fine....my brother has 4 adopted children and they are all wonderful but I don't want to adopt at this time in my life....nor will I be made to feel guilty for someone Else's lack of responsibility....so you can now get off your soap box and stop judging others.....why not judge the ones who are having these children and not taking an responsibility before they became pregnant......

No I do not believe in the death penalty
I believe woman should be submissive to her husband and the husband must be loving and caring for his wife in a manner that is in accordance with God's will. This should be the manifestation of the love each has for each other.
I have adopted and support numerous children spiritually to help feed, clothe, and educate them. As I once heard a mission slogan "Some give by going...others go by giving."

Ok, I get your questions. I do not believe in the death penalty or abortion.
I've never had an abortion, nor have I ever adopted a child. Point of the matter is that there are far fewer psychological strongholds on a woman from having an abortion than giving a child up for adoption!

Death penalty...I believe if someone came into my house and killed someone I love I would give them the death penalty instantly, YES.
Woman subservient...of course not. Both sexes are meant to work together in the interest of the other and live in harmony with love and respect. Note that feminists have gone WAY too far!
I was adopted so I support adoption. I have 2 children. They come from me. I would never kill a life I helped to create.

well....what all these really have to do with one another I don't know, but I'll bite...
I am pro-life/anti-abotrion (whichever way you want to put it)
1. I am not fully in approval of the death penalty, however,I also am not fully in approval of my tax dollars and your going to support mass murderers and rapists in prison for life....
2. a wife is supposed to submit to her husband as unto God...we are not their servants and if what my husband asks me to do is against what God would want, then I am WRONG to submit to him.
3. I have adopted NO children but would in a heartbeat...wanna fork over the funds?? It's not really that easy. I have children of my own and am pregnant now, which in itslef is very risky for me. However I was actually told by one agency that if I were to adopt a child from them it would cost me more because I have children. Why would I want to if that's the case, and if it were affordable to more people, I bet more people would adopt.
Now...what does this have to do with anything??

Let's stick with the issue, abortion is harmful to the fetus and the mother. Women suffer depression as a result of abortion "20 YEARS AFTER THE FACT" Give the unborn a fighting chance, why can't you give them up for adoption? I would rather have the chance at life then have someone else, steal that chance for their own convenience.
