Why does someone have to be Pro-Life or Pro-Choice?

Just an open question. I am neither pro-life or pro-choice. I have an opinion, but I cannot label myself as either.

The question may be rephrased as: Why does someone have to be a humanist or not be a humanist?

I know what you mean.

As far as I'm concerned the way that the Supreme Court laid out the case in Roe v. Wade is satisfactory. I can't imagine their rationale being any more succinct, informed, and accommodating than that case.

Casey v Planned Parenthood I have some serious issues with, but I'm of the opinion that Roe v Wade, as it is written, is equally fair to all concerns.

I'm both pro life and pro choice except when it comes to fundamentalists then I'm pro-death j/k

I see your point, but I come from a different point of view. I was a clinic escort for over eight years in the upper south. I saw the way that the supposedly religious protesters treated the patients coming in for a legal medical procedure. To say the least, it wasn't pretty.
I now live in San Diego, and it isn't that much of an issue here.

Good books on the subject are: " This Common Secret" by Susan Wicklund and "The Girls Who Went Away" by Ann Fessler.

I concur with Catana, pro-choice IS pro-life.

Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film video

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:37pm 0 Comments

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film.  The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons.  He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

Do you support 'traditional' marriage, vot now ad

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"!  .

 

 

No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes.  'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands.  Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…
