Okie,
Fallen Oak,
Dolly,
Peter,
Friends, there are varying degrees of merit in your posts.
Peter, I don't like to stereotype people or paint with too broad a brush but for the sake of critique...
Your post and meme tell part of the t***h but the flip side of your post is also true if you substitute "democrats " for "republicans". And the flip side of your meme would be labeled "Democrat 101" and begin with "k**l the fetus" which then renders the rest of the meme null and void.
Dolly, your argument equating the failure or inability of an employer to pay an adequate wage, or a v**er choosing to not support laws that aid the downtrodden, to committing a "post natal a******n" is flawed on many levels. I'm sorry to call you out on this but this is dangerously close to one of the ways the culture of death defends a******n, by deflecting the examination back to the anti-a******nist that supposedly doesn't care about children in school, people in poverty, the under-insured, etc.
The fact is, if I was a person that fit that description of a selfish, miserly sociopath I would not be violating any statutes of man, but rather only committing some common venial sins which can be washed away by the Blood of Christ as we lie in judgement before Almighty God. Actual a******n, on the other hand, requires repentance, for murder is a mortal sin, which also can be washed away by the Blood of Christ but only along with our own profound participation; by repentance, the sacrament of reconciliation and penance before our own time of death.
Dolly, you did however end your post with great wisdom:
Believe and defend the sanctity of life, from the moment of conception until natural death, AND love thy neighbor as thyself.
