<How did you feel about killing your son?>

I always wanted to ask the mythical Abraham how he could have been so immoral to have tied his son Isaac up to a tree and been on the verge of murdering him on behalf of his Immoral Master, before he was ordered to stop.

The moral of the story is that what one views as sacrifice another views as murder.

Now if I was one of those State Troopers passing by and observing Abraham going through his little private religious ritual, I'd be sure to arrest him for attempted murder and let God be his losing attorney during the trial.

PS What "son" are you talking about?

When some people's god said to be fruitful and multiply, I wonder if he had images of millions of tons of raw sewerage pouring out into the Earth's oceans, billions choking on pollution, millions of unwanted children fighting against rats, in garbage dumps, for food.

Does pro "life" include pro "quality of life"? Or doesn't quality matter. Because of the lack of family planning funds and facilities, hundreds of millions of children are being born into poverty and despair, and having physical deformities. This is not only cruel, but criminal.

what makes you think your kids will kill theirs BEFORE they are born....

the snowball rolls downhill.......

Since abortions have been routinely conducted all over the world for thousands of years, and infanticide is rare and, if anything, growing rarer, the snowball would appear to roll rather slowly.
