gowlerk 2,077 #127 April 8, 2016 QuoteYou are one who has admitted not having had the will power to say "no", so why are you always so critical of those of us who did say "no"? In fairness to Ron I'd like to say that I don't feel he is terribly critical of others in this forum. He receives far more criticism than he returns. He does hold positions and beliefs that many find offensive, but that is another matter.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Or his 'I'm a counsellor' phase where he would diagnose the mental issues of anyone who ever appeared slightly annoyed at him - while his own angry posts were merely calculated attempts at poking the hornets nest to see what happens.

There are worse addictions than religion, but none quite as annoying to outsiders. Most addicts make an effort to hide their problem. People like Ron get all in your face and try to push theirs on everyone else. As an aside, where did his avator come from? Anyone know?

billvon 2,691 #132 April 8, 2016 >This is my world, as it is yours, and it is allowed. What I believe in my ideal world matters not. From your previous post: "So, just so we are all clear here, because you believe that particular law is just - it must be correct. I must assume then, that there are absolutely no laws on the books that you disagree with then." So here we have a 14 year old whose life would be put at risk by carrying the fetus to term, and who is pregnant through no fault of her own. If there was a law that told her she had to carry the fetus to term no matter what the risk to her was - would that be a just law? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Di0 1 #139 April 8, 2016 I am torn on the discussion about abortion. On one side, it's killing babies and we can all certainly appreciate this side of it. On the other hand, it's giving freedom of choice to women, and I'm not sure I'm OK with that.I'm standing on the edge With a vision in my head My body screams release me My dreams they must be fed...
