i like what Glenn Beck says about such issues (and I’m paraphrasing) “It’s not an issue of it being right or left, it’s an issue of what is morally right!”

Second off, I’m not a republican.

Third off, the real question Anony II is posing is this: How many “what if’s” could I pose before you would vote for a pro-abortion party or candidate? It’s a pretty loaded question. And a pretty fair one, I have to add, since my original post was dealing with the same subject, namely, where do we draw the line. Which brings us back to square 1.

Anony II: I’m not going to answer your question straight forward. Basically anybody’s answer, including mine and yours, depends on this: what is abortion? Suppose we lived in Germany during the time of the Holocaust. How much would we let the fact that a political party was bent on destroying a people group because they had given themselves the power to give or take away “person-hood” influence our support or opposition of that party? Is abortion not as bad as the Holocaust, or slavery? Statistically speaking, its worse, far worse, than both the Holocaust and slavery combined. Principally, they are the same. How long will it be until people stop looking at abortion in terms of partisan politics, and start being horrified, and weeping on behalf of the slaughtered unborn children?

I suppose, to be fair, I would have to say I would vote democrat. Because stopping the slaughter, saving the lives of the most vulnerable, and most oppressed people group in our community means more to me than any of those policies.

Anony:

I’m not sure how your first question is related to this post. But, yes, of course there are situations when abortions are “ok.” If the mother’s life is in certain danger, such as in a fallopian (sp?) pregnancy, of course the necessary thing to do is to sacrifice one life instead of two. Although I would hardly call that “ok.”

2nd question: As I suggested in my post, it all depends on where you draw the line. How do you view abortion? What is it to you? Is it murder or a policy issue? In your mind, how does stripping a people group of their status and rights as persons in order to make way for your ideologies and justify killing them en masse affect ones eligibility for public office?

Is there a situation when abortion is ok?

If one candidate’s goals are a good idea but they believe abortion should be legal while the other candidate’s goals are not a good idea but they believe abortion should be illigal, which is the better choice? Is there a better choice?

I am curious of your answers.

fare well!
