Pagans and Christians should have one thing in common!?

Question

Abortion! Yes i believe both of our faith's,exspecially us Pagans who love nature and all things should be pro-life.I don't wish to push this on you pro-abortion folks because it is your choice,but this is my belief so tell me what you think?Christians and pagans!

Answer 1

I think it's very good that people from different religions can unite and oppose abortion.

Answer 2

The problem with the vociferous anti-abortion folks is that they tend to spread lies about abortion. It's not something people do just because they can. Nearly all cases are either early on (when the thing inside you couldn't possibly be a baby) or for very good medical reasons. Often a woman will have to get an abortion in order to keep from, well, dying.

This is especially true of late term abortions, though Congress doesn't seem to understand. Yes, the procedure is very grim, but that's why it's only used in emergencies! Outlawing it will KILL people.

Answer 3

When an egg meets with a sperm and the egg is fertilized it is a baby. It has the DNA to become a strong healthy child. From conception on no one has the right to interrupt the growth of the child.
Even if the life of the mother is at stake we cannot terminate the child.
The use of an IUD is sort of a morning after device. It doesn't allow the fertilized egg to adhere to the uterine wall and aborts the baby.
We need to wake up and live responsibly and quit taking the lives of God's children. They don't belong to us.

So, it isn't even pro choice. We don't have a choice to end it or let it live...only God does that.

Answer 4

I AM a pagan. And its not pro abortion, its pro choice. No one is pro abortion, they just recognize that its needed sometimes and the already established life of the mother must come before the potential life of a fetus.

Answer 5

Is God three separate entities ?

God the father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.

All three were in separate forms at the same time – Jesus, the Dove and the Lord whom Jesus was speaking to.

If so, then this concept is clearly a Trinity and a Trinity cannot ever be called monotheism. Unless you can call the number 3 a number 1.

It took 451 years (after Jesus) for the scholars to decide to make the Trinity the foundation of Christianity.

If the Trinity is the foundation of Christianity then can anyone explain exactly what it is ?


God is not the author of confusion. (1 Corinthians 14:33)

Answer 8

I wrote this for another question on abortion so I copied and pasted, with some variations:

Abort means to miscarry or disappear. Fulfil means to carry out or bring to realisation. To realise means to make real. Real means "related to things." Therefore, fulfilment means to bring to a condition of being able to relate it to things. Abortion is really talking about a raft of ideas that convince parents that they won't be able to look after the new life. Oligarchs rule in this world. They always have. When there's a watering hole, people want to be near it. The bullies to take first spot need to reproduce so they've got more people to take over when they're not well from all their bullying.

The antidote for all of this scare-mongering is that it's not possible for any parent to predict the future. It's called divination. Occultists claim to be able to do it, but that's only because of the political pressure they have access to. James 4:13, 14 says:
13 Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." 14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 15 Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that." 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil. 17 So then, if you know the good you ought to do and don't do it, you sin.

What is God's opinion about relating ideas to things, whether they be "enough" to look after a child with, or technology that relies on stem cells? James 1:8 If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself," you are doing right. 9 But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers.

Actually, that's pretty much what I wrote last time too.

I don't know why people can't seem to conceive of individuality, or do they need a "thing" to make it real. Some people seem to feel the need to mark their flesh (Rev 13:18) to show allegiance to the idea that God is dead and we have to help ourselves. Christians can regard the part where it's not feasible to rely on the protection of a pretender to the throne (the image of the beast) and using gossip as an excuse (why on earth would the real government want anybody to mark themselves up? If there's a medical procedure, they want people to make decisions based on health not allegiance based on body markings - that's why they use money to represent value - Matt 22:18 But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, "You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me? 19 Show me the coin used for paying the tax." They brought him a denarius, 20 and he asked them, "Whose image is this? And whose inscription?" 21 "Caesar's," they replied. Then he said to them, "Give back to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.") to say "but we didn't know any better... we thought that's what we had to do." The government generally recognises that if you've lost all concept of money - even children know what it is - you need some help.

Anyway, Christians don't recognise anybody's authority over God's will. Money is inscribed with Caesar's name on the back of it and marks on the body are a health concern for the recipient, not an indication of allegiance. I believe that so many issues get confused with the main one. Those who don't believe in abortion because of Christianity are fooling themselves if they think the government needs to protect their rights. That's what prayer's for. I think rights as to do with right arm catalepsy that is induced by means of hypnosis. Democracy has to do with the myth of the social contract. You give up some freedoms in exchange for protection of your rights. Therefore, what the government is trying to protect is your writing arm (for most people, it's your right one). It also might be your fighting arm.

I'm not sure when foetuses develop a writing arm. I don't think that's the point. I have read some very confused posts about what the reference between protection of rights and stating your own point of view is. Do people realise where the government sits on these issues? In most places, they sit in the position of having the balance of power somehow between the ruling party and any opposition parties that are also in Parliament etc. If you really are seriously interested in the rights of everybody, and I think that protection of freedom of speech is part of it, there are ways and means of showing it.

Answer 9

I'm Pro-Life!
I don't think it should be up to Humans to choose who lives and who dies, that is Gods choice.

You shouldn't Play God, He doesn't like that.
