The Supremes Tackle Birth Control

The reason the death penalty even exists is because of an ancient (Was it Roman or Greek?) Eye for an Eye. Yes if you kill someone or more than just one person, what the *** do you think is going to happen?

Sorry. I don't know how to make it palatable to them anymore. Time and time again, they keep outing a level of sheer ignorance and/or apathy to, what should be, a very basic understanding of male/female symbiosis.

It's actually a biblical quote. Exodus 21:24 and Matthew 5:38.

Open the hypocrisy flood gates!!!!!!!!

I remember being told in elementary school that they went in with tongs and broke apart the baby... I'm glad they took a less biased approach in high school.

In a perfect world maybe, but aren't orphanages already overflowing to begin with? Just like pets, just because they are up for adoption doesn't mean they get a happy ending in the end.

The ugly truth is that abortions will happen, it's not a new thing to the last century or two. It can happen in a medically supervised environment or it can happen with a coat hanger. I like to think the first option is preferable.

I you ever met me you would wonder why anyone would even take that chance...

You get put in a cell for the rest of your natural born life?

Babylon... Mr. Hammurabi I believe aided in the establishment of the eye for an ey theme... I don't really understand your premise that it only exists because of a previous development of eye for an eye... are you saying because of this we should follow that code? Should we start chopping off theives hands?

There may be an origin of where the idea first started but it certainly doesn't mean that we have to adopt it ourselves or resort to such barbaric tactics...

adoption process not abortion process lol..

If someone has sticky fingers you slap them on the wrist, if they repeat then hey do a bit of time.

Most babies don't survive adoption. It is a sad state of affairs.

Well then don't mind me being HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.

The adoption system is a clusterfuck and to make it simple to adopt a child would open the floodgates for abuse. People serious about adoption find it easier to go overseas rather than the red tape here in the states. The third world has children in abundance looking to be adopted en masse. Or just pay someone to carry the child for you. I guess that'd be shirking responsibility too? It doesn't count unless you gestate the baby!

Further, the baggage and stigma associated with adoption make it very undesirable both on a personal and legal level. Having the biological parents show up 10 years down the road trying to take your child back (its yours, you raised them. period.) and the stressful situation this puts both adopted parent / child isn't worth the hassle for most. Or the fear your child will reject the adoptive parents (currently a situation in my family) and go rogue. Or the social stigma of being an adoptive parent.

Better to just spawn your own overlord/s.

Further even with adoption overhauls the same people whining about sacred life would take the argument to anyone not in their 'clan' adopting children. See: atheists, LBGT, interracial parents, old people etc etc. Bottom line is ideological warfare guised behind the face of infants.

Death penalty ? You mean sitting on death row for 40 years appealing ?

baack in the day they just chopped them fingers off. Usually at the wrist.

Wrong: it exists because of a misconception of moral superiority and a false sense of justice.

I'll give that it's archaic, but it's also not logical based upon our other supposed standards of justice, and definitely has no place in a civil society.

Mind boggling, it be.

Their theology allows for this you know.

They read the thou shall not kill thing as thou shall not take innocent life.

So anti abortion, pro death penalty, pro war, all part of their God's great plan.

Thanks EXODUS.

I'm sorry, did I ever say I was for that joke of a war?

And pivoting back to my main objection here.

Its that believing part....

Every sperm is sacred.

What joke of which war?

I am talking theology in that post, no specific war was mentioned.

Sorry, but there isn't specific a war mentioned in anything you quoted.

Do you understand that the generalized comment that was being made was about the hypocrisy with people that use religion as a reason to be anti-abortion yet also use it to be pro-death penalty and pro-war?

The book of Exodus is one the books in the Bible that is rife with these hypocritical stances.

Why you talkin' smack about our XIV server?

Stone unruly children.
Murder adulterers.
Slavery is permissible.
Fathers sell women into sex slavery.
Rape can be absolved with a fine.

Cmon.

But remember, those eggs are worthless, unless you're selling them! Monetarily, eggs trump sperm. GOP should be totally behind eggs in that respect.

And away we go.

Tenets of capitalism in regards to supply and demand.

There is only like 10 billion Ovum per global generation versus the global supply of a Centillion on the low end to Quinquagintaquadringentilliard sperm cells on the high end, at any given moment.

(yes that is a real word and number).

The one that really twists my nipples is when people say IMO. Of course it's your *** opinion. Your name is right there next to it.

THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS!!!!!

I kinda get that one... You could be giving a factual statement or discussing someone elses opinion...
