ETA: The sheer number of people who are pro-life but also pro-death penalty never cease to amaze me. Isn't this quite a contradiction?
I know I just mentioned this in the previous post, but..........
On the same token, it never ceases to amaze ME the number of people who are pro-choice and against the death penalty. Those of us on the other side (pro-life for the most part pro-cp) view that to be just as strange. I guess it really matters when you believe life starts. If you don't believe it starts till birth, then aborting it before then is not murder.

Again, this is simply a matter of opinion. AS KDDani so nicely pointed out, no one knows for sure so don't be so sure YOUR opinion is right. I don't know that my opinion is right, I believe I will find out one day, but it still is that, my opinion, which I am entitled to. As are you. I go along with what I've been taught and what I have come to believe.

I would hate for anyone to get into a huge fight over this because the issue will never be resolved. Especially not here on Greekchat.com. Roe v. Wade will probably never be overturned.

I will say this to all of those who are pro-choice and who think me and other conservative Christians are so close minded and evil people who spend all day reading our Bibles and are so naive to the real world. I have NEVER been in the situation where I have been pregnant under bad circumstances (i.e. not ready, raped, incest, etc). So honestly, it's a lot easier for me to sit here and say that it's wrong and I would never do it and it should be outlawed. If I ever was in that situation, I say now I wouldn't do it, but the truth is, I DON"T KNOW. I can't see how the trauma of having an abortion will make the trauma of the other circumstance any easier, but like I said, I've never been in that situation. Therefore, I have never judged anyone for having it done. As I've said before one of my best friends did it in college. I stilll love her very much and have never held that against her.

Anyway, I dont' think any less of those who believe different from me. I'm just stating what I believe to be true.
