You don't need religion to believe in a higher power.

Hmm what does the good holy bible have to say...

"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is an abomination." - (Leviticus 18:22 KJV)
"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." - (Leviticus 20:13 KJV)
: smack:
Source for what? You saying the overwhelming majority of Christian women In America had abortions or your really meaning the majority of women seeking abortions are Christians or you not knowing the difference?

I think I would have a better chance of explaining trigonometry to a 2 year old but here goes.

The passage you reference means having sex with a man is wrong, and if you do it you will be put to death. Meaning you will not have life everlasting in heaven. Pretty much what the Catholic church teaches, sex without chance of procreation is a mortal sin. Commiting a mortal sin affects you chance of life everlasting.

No I'm pretty sure it means if you have homosexual sex you will be put to death. That's what that passage means. And that's how Christians countries in the past used to have it to. It wasn't until 1861 that UK abolished the death penalty for homosexuality.

I am not sure how my thoughts about the preachers reaction to free speech correlate with how he is treated. Please elaborate. You do understand I do not have any control over how people treat each other,except myself and my 7 year old?

The preacher needs to be sent to a mental institution for treatment.

Holy cow. That is not remotely true!!!!! Even your own link shows the majority of people who had abortions were Christians, it did not say the majority of Christians had abortions. You are scary. This is morbid curiosity. Do you understand that the following 2 concepts are different?

The majority of woman who had abortions are Christians.
And
The majority of Chritian woman had abortions.

You are now making things up. The Church simply doesn't teach that. But then again you believe the majority of Christian woman had abortions.

You see the beauty of "free speech"? Don't preach that you can't handle.

PS. I can't tolerate the intolerant... deal with it.

Hey, who said anyone couldn't handle free speech and as you so eloquently demonstrate the left is only in favor of speech they approve. Thus the need for free speech protections!

I never said the majority of Christians had abortions. I said the majority of women who have abortions are Christians. I never said the majority of Christians have abortions. You are twisting my words around and you are acting like a snob.
