You do not need this discussion. And I do not need a pretense that there is any serious controversy about my beliefs. I have stated thousands of times that I believe in the right to abortion. I have stated as often that I find abortion offensive and stemming from foolishness and a lack of civilized humanity. WE have, after all, "abortion" pills that work before there is an actual pregnancy. I have always stated I supported abortion rights. I have never at any time stated I support abortions. Indeed, I have often called it objectionable and regrettable. He scoured the internet from TEN YEARS AGO, for hours--merely to show that I support the RIGHT to abortion which I have staunchly advocated as hard fought progress for women and all of humankind. So his "argument" is this: if I support his right to find another young fella like himself and go into a private bedroom for some fun, then that (in his clever mind) is equivalent to me "being" a pederast, "supporting" pederasty, "advocating" pederasty, "endorsing" pederasty and so forth! If I support the RIGHT of woman to their bodies, then (in his "clever" mind!) I am a mass murderer (yes he has called me that, as well), and I endorse and advocate the termination of pregnancies. Now watch...in ten years, the second part of that sentence (I "endorse" and "advocate" the Termination of pregnancies) will show up on one of his "Righteous" spews of criminal libel as representing my beliefs! ;-) For your enlightenment, I was responding to his response to me--so the FULL post is right here: It makes it pretty clear what I believe, I think!! :-) Message 21334761 And remember, I have made hundreds of posts on abortion--so it is not as though there is an insufficient sample!! But I will use the one HE thought was the worst when (in fact) it completely belies what he previously asserted to you!! Just two quotes from the link to make it Crystal clear (as if it wasn't, already!): "I have publicly stated innumerable times that there is more offense to both sense and sensibility as abortions are delayed to later stages. And certainly--prolonging the termination of an unwanted pregnancy can distress (and otherwise impact) both potential parents. But I have never wavered from my insistence that it is a RIGHT for humans to remove anything from their own body--including their own living organs." "Late stage abortions offend the civilized mind. So do early stage abortions in the sense that they reflect a species which only imitates intelligence. But people have a right to their own body and to defending it from all unwanted intrusion--or it is feckless to even speak of rights." Feel free to scour through thirty-thousand posts of SGBR if you believe for one second that I have ever asserted a support for abortion. The Malignant Cancer that follows me about could not find one, so...probably better to "graciously" ;-) move onto something more worthy of your time...(and MINE). :-)
