Why More Feminists Should Convert to Christianity

Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


Today, feminists invite the Sex Workers Art Show to Duke University so a nearly naked transvestite can dance across stage with “F*** Bush” painted on his(?) chest. He stopped dancing, but only in order to insert a lit sparkler in his rectum while “America the Beautiful” was playing in the background. Meanwhile, Christians have enlisted the help of President Bush in fighting the global war on human sexual trafficking.

Today, feminists at UNC-Wilmington print anti-Iraq War fliers saying that the “Bush” War on Terror has not improved the plight of women in Iraq. Meanwhile, terrorists in Iraq strap bombs to mentally retarded women before sending them to die in suicide bombing attacks – giving them no “right to choose” to abort the mission.

While NC State’s Deb Luckadoo fights hard to impede the spread of Christianity, she simultaneously fights to promote homosexuality in a Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Center. Meanwhile, many Christians – not just famous ones like Franklin Graham and George W. Bush – dedicate valuable time and resources to the global fight against AIDS, particularly in Africa.

Countless feminists and human rights activists could have their lives transformed if they would only accept Jesus Christ. Perhaps, the same could be said of their movements.

the story
the story actually points out something I said much earlier. That having a child has ALWAYS been a MORTAL decision for a woman.
Since humankind walked the Earth a woman risked dying in childbirth. It was common. Syphilis was the HIV/AIDS of it's time.
We have ALWAYS had the blame if a child didn't survive or if the woman didn't.
It's an old story. The scenarios and reasons have changed only a little Rich D.
I say it again, ultimately the consequences of what a woman does will be between her and God.
For now, her medical practitioner knows her situation better than you or I, as in the case of the mother you described.
That is something that should be between THEM, not you or I or anyone else making assumptions about when and how to intervene.
It's about a woman given autonomy and the ultimate control over what happens and choosing from more than one option before her.
Her risks, her decision. And it's because it's HER risk, not anyone else's is why that decision must fall to her, ultimately.
However abhorrant it is to us.

ok, Rich D.
Okay, my error. The situation you said wasn't hypthetical. I also know that women have done such things, so I believe you.
So I stand by my point then. This particualar woman had a loving husband and social network in which she knew her child would be safe. Her self sacrifice isn't unusual.
However, I think it's important to mention that a good deal of these threads assume that ALL women and men are nurturing souls good for children simply because they ARE women, or are heterosexual.
That's not true. I don't have to tell you why.
But to bald faced say it's not possible for gay people to be competent parents and nurturers is wrong and to discriminate based on that stereotype is wrong as well.

The ability to nurture a child isn't a GROUP talent, it is one of an individual.
Some women have strong instincts to save a child at the risk of her own life and some don't. That's a fact.
And it's the assumption that all women having a sex life SHOULD be mothers and women are pressured against their better instincts TO be mothers, is what causes so many problems for women AND children.
Stereotyping women, women who get abortions or assuming ANYTHING about women and what they should do isn't workable in real life.
I don't want to have to repeat myself here Rich D. when I've stated what's THE most important aspect of the abortion issue upthread.
