"Why God is Pro-choice" (was: To agsf_57)

Sarah Vaughan wrote: Do you mind giving your opinion on the subject as to why you feel that God is not pro-choice? Because it would be hard for a non-existent being to take any kind of position on the matter. However, that's irrelevant. That's correct, because it doesn't explain: "Judging from the context in which you last used that phrase, I still don't think you understand what 'pro-choice' means." I don't have to believe in Santa Claus to understand what a X-mas gift is. I wasn't objecting to the fact that you feel God is pro-choice, but to the fact that you feel that a miscarriage of a wanted pregnancy is evidence of that. It was God's will that the baby wasn't born. Because I am sure that if God wanted that baby to be born, he would have allowed it. Seeing how God allowed the baby to be aborted, he approves abortion as a possible outcome of a pregancy. Therefore, making God pro-choice. So, do I understand what pro-choice means or what?

In message .com,
" writes Seeing how God allowed the baby to be aborted, he approves abortion as a possible outcome of a pregancy. Therefore, making God pro-choice. So, do I understand what pro-choice means or what? Or what. Pro-choice refers to the belief that each individual pregnant woman should get the choice of whether or not to end her own pregnancy. Forcibly ending the pregnancy of a woman who wishes to continue her pregnancy is no more pro-choice than preventing a woman who wishes to end her pregnancy from doing so. BTW, in case you didn't see, I've replied to your post in the 'Not the real father' thread as well. Sarah -- http://www.goodenoughmummy.blogspot.com But how do we _know_ that nobody ever said on their deathbed that they wished they’d spent more time at the office? |

Forcibly ending the pregnancy of a woman who wishes to continue her pregnancy is no more pro-choice than preventing a woman who wishes to end her pregnancy from doing so. Since you edited my post in regards to God's will, I will expand on this because it is important. The power and choice of God to allow or end a pregnancy supersedes that of a mortal woman. Since God allows miscarriages as a possible outcome, thus ending the life of a child/fetus, one must conclude that God holds a pro-choice belief system. BTW, in case you didn't see, I've replied to your post in the 'Not the real father' thread as well. Really? I'm sorry, it didn't show up on the Google radar. I'll hunt it down and respond when time permits. Sarah Regards... |

Sarah I hope you don't mind, I make my comments public so that other people can see another person's viewpoint and join in if so desired. Also, I feel that discussions on pro-choice matters are on-topic. In message .com, " writes Sarah Vaughan wrote: In message .com, " writes Seeing how God allowed the baby to be aborted, he approves abortion as a possible outcome of a pregancy.

Forcibly ending the pregnancy of a woman who wishes to continue her pregnancy is no more pro-choice than preventing a woman who wishes to end her pregnancy from doing so. Since you edited my post in regards to God's will, I will expand on this because it is important. On the contrary, it's completely irrelevant. Your beliefs about God's attitude to ending a pregnancy don't affect the meaning of the term pro-choice. I agree. I stated that God holds a pro-choice view. Never did I state that God alters or defines the term "pro-choice". The power and choice of God to allow or end a pregnancy supersedes that of a mortal woman. Since God allows miscarriages as a possible outcome, thus ending the life of a child/fetus, one must conclude that God holds a pro-choice belief system. No, one must not, because that isn't a pro-choice belief system. I repeat - pro-choice is the term for the belief that each individual pregnant woman should get the choice of whether or not to end her own pregnancy. What you're describing is a belief that God should get to override this choice. This is not, by definition, a pro-choice belief. I never stated that God should get to override this choice, I am stating that God DOES override a woman's choice. Because God does override this choice and because his/her ability to make that choice follows the definition of pro-choice, then God must be pro-choice. Unless of course, you believe the devil is involved. Sarah Regards... |
