Why bother with rhetorical questions? Just make your insane case already.

Its a real simple question. Do you object to the killing of 5 year olds? yes or no?

you're kidding right? Krazy, the only person on these boards I have seen edited for personal attacks more than me...is you.

What have you done to help children or the underprivileged?

Yet another ad hominem attack.

What does my being edited by moderators and helping children have to do with the fact that Melodylane advocates punishing rape victims?

Pssst...age and wisdom definitely don't go hand-in-hand.

You posted this:

Sorry, but you forfeited any credibility when you supported abortion. Your "concern" is fake and you know it.

Was that a textbook ad hominem attack? You betcha!

So, are you being dishonest, or are you really that ignorant?

My post was about you advocating the punishment of rape victims. Yours was about how I lack credibility.

I'll move on to the 5-year-old "dilema" once you've explained your stance supporting the punishment of rape victims.

No attack there from me crazy...unless I am attacking myself as well. :RollieEyes:

I am curious as to what you have done to help children. I know what I have done...I put my money where my mouth is...I am wondering if you do the same.

But sadly, I don't see an answer here! You get no cigar for this post, Krazy!

Please don't mar my good TGIF mood and make me grow impatient... Here it is again:

Do you object to the killing of 5 year olds?

I give to the United Way, and donate plenty of time and money to my son's school.

I don't know why it matters, since I'm not the one saying that every fertilized egg is a full-fledged human being.

Since I asked my question first, why don't we answer it first?

Your question has an obvious answer. Can you figure it out on your own? Here's a hint: My son managed to make it to age 7 so far.

My stance is that we do not ever punish rape victims. I prefer to punish liberals. wink

Ok, lets have an answer to my question, Krazy, enough dawdling.

Both admirable...well, at least the school stuff anyway. The United Way is a major contributor to slaughter houses.

I would suggest directly helping kids that need help before running with your words about what others should do.

Lots of kids need foster care...try it, it will help you just as much as it helps them.

No hints, a yes or no answer, please.

What a Palin-esque response. It was so cutesy and adorable that I almost didn't realize that you've still failed to answer my question!

For the record, I love the killing of 5-year-olds. Not just the idea of it...I love killing them myself. :RollieEyes:

What makes you think you're more entitled to a straight answer than I am?

Yep, I'm shakin'. You betcha!

Sorry, I'm not playing that game. You can address what I said, or if you prefer we can just agree to disagree. It doesn't matter.

My side (the dark side) is winning, anyway. Has been for decades.

We?

Who's that? You and your small circle of rape-victim-hating friends?

Well, tell 'em to have a nice weekend.

How to reduce abortion numbers?

Make them unlawful.

The abortion doesn't end when the woman leave the doctor's office. It follows her for life.

I am personally acquainted with three people who have had abortions. All three of them carry a huge amount of guilt for what they did. All of them did it for convenience only.

One of them was my daughter.

My first grandchild was murdered.

My daughter was 16.

She went to a Planned Parenthood. They were pleased to "help her out."

My daughter, who is now in her 30s, cannot look at her other two children without remembering the one that was lost. She has suffered depression for years because of it. It has colored her life completely.

Had the law required her to get permission from her parents, I could have protected her and my grandchild.

Abortion is a quick solution with ever-lasting effects and is NEVER right, in ANY case.

I don't understand your post, MEDC. You're here on MB, not married, a parent, and you tell others what they should do. You aren't directly in a marriage, nor have you been for several years.

Just as Dr. Harley hasn't experienced infidelity in his own marriage.

These are people's opinions...and you're saying to shut up if you aren't doing...because that's what you heard Krazy saying?

I don't get any of this. Are you sharing opinions to get others to stop thinking what they do, change their actions, or to hear from everyone willing to tread in this thread?

I cannot begin to see a way from ascertaining anyone's "credibility" or winning an argument here. We are all anonymous posters on an internet board. How on earth are we really going to discern life from a fetus when we refuse to discern personal attacks from differences in opinions?

Understandable emotions in response to other's opinions...important beliefs held close to our hearts can feel like are opinions ARE ourselves, therefore attacked when not agreed with. Not unreasonable to feel, unacceptable to react to...whether you get edited for it or not.

If you want to change people, go door to door...so you can look into their eyes, and they can look into yours.

But aren't you doing the same thing to MEDC with this post?
And why would you target MEDC for doing exactly what Krazy did by telling others to shut up? Why single out MEDC? crazy
