    Pro-life

    What I don't agree with is a label of anti-abortion merely for my pro-life views. In saying that, what I'm asking for is the "nuanced conversation" that the other side says it wants. This is the exact quote used by a pro-choice advocate while previously referring to people like me as...

    Pro-life

    And this comes back to the original point-the idea that being pro-life is anti_____. It's a subjective judgment. Pro-life advocates can still recognize, without condoning, the free choice granted to women to abort. And they can, AND SHOULD, support women, men, and families affected by any...

    Pro-life

    "Original meanings" are subjective, just as someone using the term "anti-abortion" to refer to me since I am pro-life is not correct. It's a subjective judgment Okay, I would agree with this. Here's where the trouble comes in. The assumption that a "blind eye" has been turned. Further, that...

    No. I'm suggesting that the black-and-white thinking we bring to the debate needs closer examination

    Pro-life

    One who is pro-life, but provides birth control may be supporting what is called "harm reduction". Abstaining is one form of it; however, if a person holds back on providing birth control and education for a woman (or man) who has made it clear that sexual activity is something they are actively...

    Pro-life

    That's where I think the clarity needs to be. Being tagged as "anti" does suggest, to me, a bias or hate that isn't (necessarily) there

    Pro-life

    Just some clarity - the original question is in regards to one who is "Pro-Life" being "Anti-Abortion". Are they one and the same? Why or why not? *Disclaimer - the timing of this thread and the recent events in the State of Texas are coincidence only. I was not aware of, nor am I aware of now...

    Pro-life

    In the full context of the verse, how do you see this fitting? The one who does not "choose life" has served/is serving "the gods which (the) fathers served"? What of a person who is pro-life, but respects the dignity of a person's inherent right to choose?

    Pro-life

    My question, again. I know this is a "charged" topic

    Pro-life

    What might factor in to deciding what is 'best'? Might it be mom's health, health of the baby, socio-cultural issues? Can you clarify what you mean here? So, for those who might be 'pro-life', how do you view them? Are they (by default) anti-abortion, or do you see it differently?

    Pro-life

    Does being "pro-life" mean you are "anti-abortion" or "anti-choice"? Why, or why not? I'll give my two cents soon

    Do you believe the story of Noah’s ark is literal or figurative?

    We don't know this. The peoples of the "world" weren't scattered until the Tower of Babel event, AFTER the flood. Might this speak to a regional event? Just to clarify-I don't take a position of worldwide or regional. Transformation happened at the Crucifixion.

    Do you believe the story of Noah’s ark is literal or figurative?

    Literal occurrence in history. Whether the flood was worldwide or regional is something I wonder about but I don't question the overall account. I also tend to believe the account as there are a number of flood 'narratives' in different cultures, First Nations in particular

    JOSIAH

    Hey Josiah! Hope you're well 🙂 I find it interesting that science didn't inform your vote one way or the other. It would seem that scientific knowledge, as it may (or may not) inform our faith would be a factor. It may only be a non-binding resolution, but a resolution nonetheless that speaks to...

    Movies your parents didn't want you to watch

    The only one I recall that wasn't allowed was "One Flew Over the Cuckoos' Nest". I guess I was nine at the time. I saw it first as a teenager. My parents were fairly Liberal as far as movies were concerned. We watched a lot of Saturday afternoon movies - lots of Peter Sellers and such. It helped...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Working on my Spotify "Headphone Jams" playlist. Added in some Pink Floyd deep cuts as well as from an artist named Jakko Jakszyk - a current member of King Crimson. There was an F.M. station in Detroit years ago that did a "headphone rock" show every Sunday night and I recall there was nothing...

    A country divided?

    I see the "Bee" is catching a case of John Stewart syndrome. Mr. Stewart hosted 'The Daily Show' with the avowed purpose of butchering everything Republican. He was (imo) essentially a political commentator with some measure of influence over the "gee, I'm so informed because I watch satirical...
