So the change in the church just happened to coincide with the time and place where people were demanding these rights and not putting up with a church that was in conflict with these rights? Hmmm…. I’m thinking the church changed to suit the times, not leading the change, but as a follower. Just like the churches today that are slowly allowing gay marriages to take place within their holy places…. these churches didn’t lead that change, but they are following society’s increasing freedom.

If I consult a lawyer, they will tell me that assisted suicide is legal as well as “do not resuscitate”. Why would you consult a lawyer and listen to them for one thing, but not for another?

You explain to God how it’s different when He clearly has told you to give everything away to give to the poor and only then will you get to heaven. It’s an inconvenient passage to be sure. And, as seen by your long post, people will make many excuses to give themselves permission to ignore it. But the meaning is clear and obvious. Read your rambling post to God when it’s your time to be judged and see if he buys your excuses to ignore Matthew 19:21.

We’ve already seen. You’re denying reality.

How did you determine that the mother’s life is more important and it’s the “baby” that should die and not the mother?

Just give us one name on it.

Canada? You think God is going to give you a pass because the child you let die was a foreigner?

Is there a difference in the eyes of God? If you watch a child starve, even though you could do something about it, you think God will give you a free pass to heaven? “Well, sure God…. I didn’t give the child food when I could have, but it’s not like I killed the child myself”… Jesus tells you to give away your possessions and give to the poor. Matthew 19:20-24 20 “All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?” 21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” 22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth. 23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

True. One of those times is when someone doesn’t want to remain pregnant. The fetus’ right to life doesn’t Trump a woman’s bodily autonomy. Or, it shouldn’t. I suppose it does now in some parts of the USA.

It’s still pumping plenty of oil and is being expanded. So we’ll have to chalk this up to crazy conspiracy. You’ll fit right in on this board!

How would flogging this conspiracy theory make you any different than the crazies on this board, other than you don’t like Trump?

Do we have a right to kill ones that are already born? Every day you’re letting children die by not sending them all the spare money that you have. The money you spend on the internet to come to this forum, you could be spending buying food for starving children, but you don’t. I think that means you’re going to hell…. at least according to your bible.

The Federal government literally bought a pipeline. Do you still stand by your argument?

Cue @Goddess to blame vaccines….

Who did the Clintons have assassinated?

Who was assassinated opposing Trump?

I don’t care what a god says…. There’s a million interpretations of what God says, including Christians who think God is just fine with abortion. I’m asking your opinion. My rights as a fetus didn’t trump my mom’s rights at all. She was allowed to abort me.

Is the bodily autonomy of the woman less important than the life of the “child”?

That’s great that He has your back. Too bad about the dying children whose parents pray night and day no avail. But, at least He lets you troll the libs! Funny, he’d pick you over innocent children though…. it’s almost as if he isn’t actually there….

Did he answer?

Do you know anyone who has every changed their sexuality on a whim?

What did your specialist say?

You prefer ruining the air you can’t see with fossil fuels to ruining the landscape because you can see it?

Unless they’re a child bride. Then, in America, it’s ok to have sex with an underage girl. What a sick and twisted Christian Nation that is. Are all Christians in America perverts?

Your feelings mean nothing. We have courts to determine these things.
