If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

Originally posted by Roy View PostYou literally just responded to a comment about the views of posters here being ignored with a complaint about "Democrats" and "the Left".
Do you disagree with the Mississippi law that allows for unrestricted elective abortions up to 15 weeks and then requires severe abnormality or physical endangerment to the mother?
You are certainly free to detail your specific view to which I can respond. Until you specify your view, I cannot respond to your specific views.P1) If, then I win.

One of the things I see quite frequently from the pro-choice side is someone claiming that they are for "reasonable restrictions" on abortions. At the same time, when that person is pressed on what is "reasonable," they literally can't come up with a single restriction they would stand behind. They act like if they acquiesce to a specific restriction, no matter how rare it might be, then it opens the floodgate to every other restriction. Yet, those same people will still claim that they are for "reasonable restrictions on abortion."My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

Mossy, that isn't a reasonable conclusion. There are many believers that accept evolution as true. The acceptance of evolution as a valid scientific explanation of the history of life on the Earth has no direct implication as to what or who people worship. In fact most people put themselves first on the hierarchy of things they value, including many if not most Christians."It ain't necessarily so

Clearly not, but not for the reason you seem to think.

Many public advocates of choice are nearly as foaming at the mouth radical as the the public face of pro-choice. What I don't have is a good window into is the relative extremity of the privately held pro-choice views. I am fairly certain that the privately held pro life views are reasonably well represented here, there isn't much room for exceptions on that side of the debate publicly or privately.
"I'm for reasonable restrictions on abortion"
"Like what: <reference poll on what majority of americans feel are reasonable restrictions> 24-hour waiting period?"
"No, that's unreasonable"
"First Trimester?"
"No, that's unreasonable"
"Doctor have Hospital Admitting privileges?"
"No, that's unreasonable"
"See an ultrasound"
"No, that's unreasonable"
"What about the level of restrictions in europe"
"No, that's unreasonable"
"Ok, can YOU name what is a reasonable restriction"
"Not off the top of my head"
