Why do you think for a second your God and morality is the only God and morality?
It is not and your God is not my God and your morality is not mine.
What gives you any right to tell anyone what to do? There is no gun to your head forcing you to get an abortion is there?
If you don't want an abortion don't get one and keep your nose out of everyones business.
AND JUST ONE STUPID POINT: If your God didn't want people from getting or performing abortions why wont he stop it, he did create everything in 8 days so he should have the means to stop his creations from committing this heinous act right?

Lets leave Iraq out of this and I support our troops and think they should be there to finish the job and secure Iraq.

I support all of your rights not to have an abortion but no one asked for your help saving anything from any one.

OK
If God will judge baby killers in the end why are you people sticking your noses in now. Sit back and wait for the show.

Wow... that's just harsh. Okay, I'll answer some of that...
And remember, YOU brought religion into it, not me!
1) Of course your god and my God are not the same and your morality and my morality are not the same. That's why, if you don't change, you're going to H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks.
2) No there, is not a gun to my head forcing me to get an abortion (I'm a guy) but there IS a SCAPEL to the head of an unborn baby about to get an abortion, and that baby has no choice in the matter. I am the voice for that baby.
3) Why not ask the baby if they want to be aborted then?
4) Why won't God stop it? Because He left us in charge of earth for a while. He's been asking us why we haven't stopped it--and I am afraid that I don't have much of an answer.
Don't worry though... God will stop abortions one day. I'm excited I get to see it!
Like I said... since you brought religion up...

Lets see. We can kill a stranger on the street at a whim, God dose not stop us. We can get coked up and rape someone, God dose not stop us. We can go to a school and kill 33 kids, God dose not stop us.
God gave us free will with the hope we would not do these things. Not MY God or YOUR God, Just God.
Wrong is wrong. Cover it up as a "woman's right" and it still is wrong.
I won't say all abortion is bad and must be stopped. I will say that using abortion as a form of birth control is not just morally wrong but sick! Partial birth and late term abortion is murder. The baby is fully formed It is murder.
I am not a "BIBLE THUMPER" as you put it . I have served in the US Marines in time of war. I have broken most if not all of the ten commandments. Maybe I'm not as cool as you and your more then likely liberal friends. Maybe I am just a simple Marine and deserving of reticule for my simplistic view of morality, But we were put here to protect our children not wait till thee 8th month of a pregnancy and "decide" not to have it for convenience. We are so concerned with woman's right to have an abortion what about the child's right to live

are you serious? So I can't have a belief system that tells me my God is the only God and his morality is just? Just as your God is not mine and your "morals" are not mine. No there is no gun to your head telling you to get an abortion, but it is not the point, it is killing an innocent life for an inconvenience. What gives anyone the right to kill a child, because you went out and slept around and then can't handle your responsibilities. If you don't like that people are dieing in war just don't join and keep your nose out of it. And see, we have free will as humanity, a God that controlled every little action of our would be bad, so you can't blame Gods inaction for the fact that many millions have been killed because they are not wanted.

"Why do you think for a second your God and morality is the only God and morality?"
I believe evidence supports Christianity.But that is beside the point,as I know of no religion that supports killing the innocent.
"What gives you any right to tell anyone what to do?"
Oh,that again.Okay,we'll just make rape,murder and theft legal,because no one has the right to tell another person what do.But you know,abortion,in a way,is forcing the fetus to do something it doesn't want to do-the fetus doesn't want to die,but you are forcing death upon it.Watch Silent Scream.
"There is no gun to your head forcing you to get an abortion is there?"
No,but there is no gun forcing me to go and shoot someone,and I'm still against it.And did you know that there was recently a case where a judge in Italy forced a girl to get an abortion?
"If you don't want an abortion don't get one and keep your nose out of everyones business."
Oh,what a great argument.Let's try these ones for a number of other issues:
"If you don't like slavery, then don't enslave anyone.Keep your nose out of everyones business."
"If you don't like terrorism, then don't bomb anyone.Keep your nose out of everyones business."
"If you don't like animal cruelty, then don't be cruel to one.Keep your nose out of everyones business."
Yes,it IS my business when innocent babies are being killed,just like it would be my business if I saw a gunman in a shopping centre randomly shooting others.

Because there is a such thing called "Free Will" and a non Christian has a different view about "Free Will" than a Christian.
Christians are not God's puppets, they choose to follow him, AS people choose to have an abortion.
P.S. He created everything in 6 days and took the 7th day to rest from all that he created, Genesis 1 and 2, and that is why we are, as Christians, are suspost to take, what is called, a Sabbath day, or one day during the week to go and rest.
But you wouldn't know that because you are close minded and I am going to pray for you and your family so that you may learn the truth.

Yes, gods and morals are very relative - and in no way does everyone have the same moral standards. But don't you think there are some morals that are part of human nature, without the influence of a religion or god? For instance, murder. Yes, the Bible says "Thou shalt not kill," but most people that aren't Christians would agree that killing someone is morally wrong.

Me thinks someone got up on the wrong side of the Supreme Court abortion decision. I don't believe we are telling other folks what to do. What we are doing is pointing out what we believe to be a lack of good judgment on the part of humanity regarding the disposal of human life similar to discarding uneaten table scraps. While we realize that there are those that believe the devaluation and sanctity of innocent human life is of little value in our insanely fast tracked human existence, the idiotic belief by some that a fetus is not human defies logic and is a convenient escape clause for those who want to end it without benefit of good conscience. We have a right to our beliefs as do you. However, I hope we can be slightly more low key then you in expressing our views without resorting to name calling and casting aspersions on religious outlooks.

Can't speak for all the Bible thumpers (BTW, Quran thumpers too SFAIK), but the way I see it God gave people the gift of free will, and judges them by how they use it.
One of the ways of using the free will (and the right of free speech) is to oppose legislation one finds distasteful- for example laws which allow killing of unborn children.
You are perfectly correct- there is no gun forcing any of us to get an abortion (in this respect these laws do not concern us in any way) however it is a sin (of omission) if we fail to oppose such laws
You are also correct- God has the power to create anything and also of destroying anything. But it is not we who are judging God, but God who is judging us.

I just want a person to think long and hard before an abortion, there is a very large chance for psychological damage if a person has one, especially if they had any second thoughts going into one.
I also don't think it should be used as a form of birth control, but this can be solved if parents don't depend on schools to educate their children about sex.

God created everything in 7 days. If you knew anything about christianity and beliefs, you would know that God is not the type of god to come down from the heavens and interfere with human affairs. We believe the everything happens for a reason.
If your mom aborted you, you wouldn't even be here. Aren't you glad she chose life? I don't think of it as sticking my nose in people's business, I think of it as doing something to help or people and give children a chance to live.
