The Party of Hate!

So now you want to get Congress pass a law in which the government can prevent whales from getting abortions?

[sirs]

Oy vey........where did ANYONE, much less Plane reference, that Whales will sometimes seek abortions, rather than care for their young, Dr Deflection??

[Xavier_Onassis]

I did not bring up whales.

I just was pointing out how ridiculous it was to bring them up.

Whales are mammals.
Mammals have hair,
SHAVE THE WHALES!!!!

[sirs]

There's nothing ridiculous in demonstrating how different mothers care for their young.  Humans are much closer to whales than turtles, when it comes to how many young they have, and how they care for them

And NEWS FLASH.....no turtle OR whale, choose an abortion

[Xavier_Onassis]

Maybe they can, maybe they cannot.
But if that is because they can't, it is due to a lack of technical ability.

When female cats decide they do not want to mess with a kitten, she eats it.

I agree that basing proper human behavior on animal behavior is ridiculous.
There are animals doing everything , we certainly should not copy some of them, nor copy any of them on the basis that they are "natural" as if natural is a virtue of itself.

Some animals have some behaviors that Humans do well to emulate , thanks Aesop.
Some animals have behaviors that would be dangerous , impossible or disgusting for humans to emulate.
So why did you bring it up?

So,  using your twisted deflection technique. ....are you saying abortion is ok, so long as the mother eats the child??

See how ridiculous the attempt was to imply whales could choose abortion if they had the wherewithal?   And do you why mom cats sometimes eat their newborn kitten?   Here's a hint... the kitten is already dead, as in there was no abortion to begin with.

    God has very little compassion for the newborn of any species.



I don't agree,

=============================================
Of course not. You were brainwashed as an infant.

God has recently shown compassion with the Zika virus, which causes newborns to be microcephalic, which means they will need to be cared for all their lives.
God just oozes compassion: malaria, AIDS, Guinea worms, elephantiasis, cancer, Altzheimers. All part of the Great Circle of Being.

I feel for you xo.  I can see you being that character in the Matrix...the fella that wants so bad to get plugged back into the matrix, where everything is perfect...as far as he believes. of course.

Dread diseases are not new , not ignored in scripture.

You would believe in God if he had built the world more as you like?

[Xavier_Onassis]

The fact that diseases are mentioned in scripture in no way makes then acceptable.

[sirs]

To humans perhaps.  Point being your attempt to "understand" God is pure human.  Humans, are by nature, inquisitory, and given our higher brain function than most every other animals on this globe, allows us to actively think, perform research, scientific even

God is none of that, so its impossible to "understand God".  God is, and that's it.  You either have faith, or you don't.  Its your choice, and that's the best of it....you're not obligated to believe.  Do you see anyone who has a walk with God, ridiculing your lack of one??  laughing at your lack faith?  Making jokes?  No you don't.  But boy oh boy, look at the somersaults you perform in trying to ridicule and demean someone's faith

God is, that's it.  Bad things happen, and yes, God allows it.  But God teaches those who have faith, that there's nothing too great that we can't handle.  Bad things also happen, to provide greater perspective of when good things happen.  And again, the best part is, you're not required to believe that.  Why you find it so necessary to demean and ridicule that, which no one of faith does to you, is quite.......illuminating

[Plane]

Imagine a world without them.

Perhaps no curses at all, imagine that.

Perhaps just one language for us all too, so misunderstanding is reduced.

Would you continue imagining this better and easier , until there was nothing noble for anyone to do?

Actually I believe several mammals has been know to terminate their pregnancy when extreme situations occurs. I was a vet major so I got some knowledge in this area. So yes animals can abort babies .Come to think of it I suspect those ealier prolife protesters may of caused some stressed induced miscarriage by yelling at pregnant women.

It's a strange human behavior to inflict such emotional trauma on another. Not just pregnant woman. I'm say this because I've experienced a panic attack and as benign and lame as it sounds it's actually quite dangerous

It was certainly a great thing when people did away with smallpox. Leprosy is a very rare thing as well.
Maybe Jesus cured a dozen lepers. Medical science has all but abolished the disease.
The Power of Prayer wasn't effective in the long run.
You have to seek out and furgle sick armadillos to catch it now.
We are all still mortal, we have a long ways to go to improve our lot.
