Read the entire statement I quoted from another poster. That poster brought Chelsea Clinton into it. I just questioned how that person or any of us would know whether Chelsea was ever in this situation. You're the one spinning now. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As we have seen, being a pro-life republican politician can mean you want to make abortion for everyone _else_ illegal, but still want the option yourself. In any case it's a stupid hypothetical. Heck, Sarah Palin might have had three additional kids and sacrificed them all to a pagan god. You can't prove she didn't! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #60 September 1, 2008 Wow, you, Billvon and Amazon are really having problems with reading comprehension today. Being Pro-Choice is pro-abortion, no matter how hard you try to make a distinction to quiet your consciences. The statement "I would never choose abortion myself but I would never stop anyone else from having one." is the same logic as "I would never steal, but I would never stop anyone else who chooses to steal." It's guilt by omission. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,120 #61 September 1, 2008 >Being Pro-Choice is pro-abortion . . . I am pro-choice and not pro-abortion, so your statement is false (and has little to do with the topic anyway.) >The statement "I would never choose abortion myself but I would never stop >anyone else from having one." is the same logic as "I would never steal, but I >would never stop anyone else who chooses to steal." Nope, since stealing is a crime and abortion is not. A better example is "I would never drink alcohol but I would not stop someone else who chooses to do so." Is such a person "guilty" of something?

Shotgun 1 #64 September 1, 2008 Quote Being Pro-Choice is pro-abortion . . . Right. Because we see all of those pro-choice people marching around OB-GYN clinics, trying to get pregnant women to abort their babies. And if the Clintons were pro-abortion, then I really wouldn't expect them to have any children, ya know? But they're not; they're pro-choice. There is a difference.

After all, pro-lifers often target (and sometimes murder) doctors. And you are one of them. Or can you support an idea (abolition of abortion) and not support how other people misuse that idea (murder?) First, I want to say that my above statement was uncalled for and a low blow. I apologize sincerely for that. I'm going to delete it, but since it is quoted, it's out there. Pro-lifers do not 'often' target doctors for murder. That is an exaggeration. The ones that do are radical in their thinking and are criminals. So yes, I absolutely support the abolition of abortion and do not support those that misuse it and commit murder. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #68 September 1, 2008 OK, I let my emotions get the best of me and said something to Bill that I completely regret and am sorry for. I truly do not think that way. I'm back on track now. To be honest, I do not understand the difference between being pro-choice and against abortion. Leaving all the radical examples aside because neither you, Bill or I are radicals; help me to understand this viewpoint. I'll use myself as an example without rambling. I truly believe that life begins at conception and an abortion ends that life (please note that I am not referring to anyone's culpability here and do not believe those who have had an abortion are evil.). Since I believe as I do, I cannot bring myself to support legalized abortion because the act in and of itself is murder. My beliefs here are not uncommon and are held by millions, if not billions of people. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,120 #69 September 1, 2008 >Pro-lifers do not 'often' target doctors for murder. That is an exaggeration. >The ones that do are radical in their thinking and are criminals. I agree! Further, I'd suggest that 99.99% of pro-lifers do not support murder of any form - even if they might support preventing a doctor from doing his job in other ways. Likewise, I am against abortion. I think that it is the worst possible solution to a common problem. I also think that I am not better at making that decision than a couple and their doctor. Again, it's like many of my other beliefs. I do not think people should become addicted to drugs or alcohol - but I also think that using them should be their choice. That does not mean that I am "guilty" if a friend of mine decides to do lots of coke and destroy his life. I will try to talk him out of it, and get him into counseling, and point out where his road will lead him - but in the end it's up to him to make the decision.

This is a very logical statement and for the first time, I understand where you are coming from on this issue. I guess the difference in the way you and I view this issue is that I see abortion as a conscious decision to end a life and therefore support laws to prohibit it. I think (correct me if I am wrong) that you don't veiw abortion as ending a life but perhaps a potential life.

You obviously didn't read or chose to ignore my reply to Shotgun just above your post. If you're going to jump into a conversation and make comments, it's best if you educate yourself as to what is happening in the conversation. To bring you up to speed, I am asking for an explanation as to what the difference is between pro-choice and pro-abortion. Apparently Gawain is asking also. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
