Kony 2012 - What are your thoughts? →
Before I had watched this video I had no idea who Kony was. I mean I knew there were children being used as soldiers, but I kinda forgot about it. It’s kind of sad when you can forget something so big. I we should all try to help them. I’m not sure about the government intervention, but the people can absolutely make a difference. I still need to do some more research. You read my...
mrs-annie-odair-deactivated2012 asked: And since when is selfishness always a bad thing? I mean, everyone is selfish sometimes, even you. Putting oneself (and one's well-being) first is a natural, normal part of being human. It's how we keep ourselves alive and thriving. So why do you seem to think it's okay for you to be selfish sometimes, but it's not okay for a pregnant woman to ever be selfish? Why hold pregnant...
mrs-annie-odair-deactivated2012 asked: Also, have you ever actually done any unbiased research on abortion? Have you ever looked at sites such as the Mayo Institute, the Guttmacher Institute, the American Pregnancy Association, Discover Magazine, or any other scientifically- or academically-based website? Pro-life websites are capable of being wrong, or of outright lying, you know. So why blindly trust them, and why refuse to...
mrs-annie-odair-deactivated2012 asked: So you just don't care about how hellish or traumatic it is for a woman to be given no other choice but to go through with her pregnancy? You'd rather think of that woman as being nothing but an incubator for the child inside of her, and completely disregard her reasoning for wanting to get an abortion? Tell me, how is any of that even the least bit loving?
coffeeandfisting asked: "You know sex is sorta like driving a car. You have to take risks." Exactly! And, if one of those risks goes awry, and you get into an accident (whether it's your fault or not), you can go to the hospital and get fixed up pretty much right-as-rain again. Same with accidental pregnancies.
mrs-annie-odair-deactivated2012 asked: Also, why do you seem to think that the life of an unthinking, unfeeling, unknowing first-trimester fetus is more important than the health and well-being of the woman who's carrying that fetus? I mean, what if going through with the pregnancy would be traumatic, harmful, or even life-threatening for her? Do you just not care about her at all, just so long as the fetus inside of her...
mrs-annie-odair-deactivated2012 asked: Why include pictures of six-month-old babies in a post about abortion, though? What was the point of that? I mean, do you really think that abortion involves six-month-old babies? Or will you admit that you were being purposefully misleading by using those pictures?
mrs-annie-odair-deactivated2012 asked: How come, in that post about abortion, you included no pictures of actual fetuses? Why do you seem to think that infants around 6 months of age (which is how old the babies in those photos looked to be) have anything at all to do with the abortion debate? I mean, not only were you being dishonest by using those photos, but you were also using those photos as emotional rhetoric, which is what...

A rant on abortion.
You know sex is sorta like driving a car. You have to take risks. If your protection breaks, why does the baby have to suffer? One argument “pro-choicers” always bring up is “What if the baby isn’t wanted?” or “What if the parents cannot take care of the child?” There are A LOT of people in the world who can’t have a child (whether it be because...
