I don't see the GOP or your ilk actively supporting programs for the poor and homeless. In fact they are all about defunding such programs.
If you want to know what "cheapens" view on life, all one has to look at is how others treat the poor and homeless.
You are assuming that government programs are the best way to help the poor and homeless. Your mischaracterization of that position ignores the fact that the issue is over the role of government - not whether the poor or homeless should be supported.
Democrats want to throw taxpayer money at the problem - whereas conservatives want to actively support faith -based and other charitable organizations that actually work.

Yeah it was clear - but I misread it - as stated in my previous posts. Furthermore, you seem to be at it again - my comment on insects and human life was in regard to a poster that used aspects of human life that were similar to insects to justify the pro-life position. I was just showing how inconsistant they were in using such terminology. You then made the non-sequitur and assumption that I think Humans and insects are equivalent.
You seem to be engaged in useing strawmen, non-sequitur, and false dichotomies to make you oppositon look bad and you the victor.
*Note* This thread is for pro-lifers who make exceptions for rape and incest, NOT pro-abortion people.
Maybe they don't call themselves anything, and they can make exceptions because they are capable of a higher level of thought and consideration for women who might be in that situation.
BTW, as multiple people have said, you don't get to dictate who gets to post in an open thread in a public forum.
How does a woman getting abortion DIRECTLY affect you?
Check again. I answered you in post # 306:
How does a woman being battered DIRECTLY affect me?
How does racism DIRECTLY affect me?
How does child abuse DIRECTLY affect me?
How does famine and the crisis in Darfur DIRECTLY affect me?
Shall I continue? Anything else that I want to type would be mean spirited and I would feel bad about it afterwards, so I will refrain.
then how many babies have you adopted? Are you fostering 10 kids at least?
As a proud member of the Loyal Order of Moose for the past 14 years - I am currently fostering close to 300 children - along with the other 1,000,000 or so Moose in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and Bermuda - together we do actual work that helps children and strengthens our communities.
Now that you know what I do - I expect you to do at least as much or stop using that silly tactic and think that it means anything.
Here is a link to the Moose International website. Moose International. You will find a search tool to find a Moose Center near you. Dues are inexpensive and you will be part of a family organization that cares for the young in our through our Child City, Mooseheart, our senior through the City of Contentment, Moosehaven, actively serves our local communities through various projects, and whose mission is to have fun while serving others
People here die everyday because they can't afford healthcare.
If "pro lifers" (LOL) were really pro-life, they would be the biggest advocates for health care.
That doesn't even make sense. Do you have a link?
