I believe we also need to elected God fearing leaders to both our federal and state governments. Until people realize that the leaders they elect are ungodly and will harm Americas interests we will continue to have theses issues before us.

By the time most women even know that they are with child, the baby already has a heart beat and brain activity (8 to 10 weeks). The plain fact is that the choice to have sex is the promise that mother and father make to the baby, that she will carry the baby till birth and he will care for the baby. There is no choice except to allow the child to be born or to kill the baby. There is, of course no such thing as a safe abortion, since one of the parties, is killed. God, even if you do not believe in Him, will judge those who kill the innocent babies, only the forgiving Grace of Jesus can save you. Bottom line, let the children be born and stop the killing of over 1.5 million babies per year. Life begins the instant the egg is fertilized.

In the interest of full disclosure, I’m Catholic now and attended the schools yet was raised Southern Baptist. I believe Catholics vote that way to assuage their racial guilt; it was the trendy thing to do; Bush was/is evil and must be repudiated. Don’t kid yourself and think Catholics are monolithic and conservative; most are about as liberal.. oops I mean “progressive” as they come. Please read George Weigel’s piece in National Review: <a href="http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=YzNhZDI1MDAyMjcwNTFhMDM3NDZkOGQ5ZWZhOGUzNWI=" rel="nofollow">http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=YzNhZDI1MDAy...</a> and note the the “seamless garment” metaphor. This will explain it. "Why do Jewish people vote Democratic when the party has no interest in protecting Israel?" I believe ideology trumps all including religion. Jews tend to be liberal; liberalism blames America for all the world’s ills; so if America protects Israel how can that be good for liberals? Besides, a basic tenet of liberalism is “one culture is no better than another”, so why protect Israel? What make them special? Other than that I can’t figure out why they’re pro-Islam; we all know what that leads to. Jim Wilson in Dallas raises interesting points when he asks:

It’s a medical procedure between a doctor and patiant. If you want to kill your unborn child and you can find a doctor willing to do it I hope God does not have mercy on your soul but it is wrong to force my morality on others. As a divisive a issue as this is, NO taxpayer money should be used to fund any of these procedures. Let the Libs fund it with charitable donations of their money.Heavan will be alot less crowded and it will clean up the gene pool." Abortion is a "medical procedure"? Huh? Abortion is a killing of an unborn baby. Removing a cyst is a medical procedure. You do NOT want God to mercy on the soul of those who peerform or have abortions? Bill are you a Christian? Are you a perfect Christian for that matter? Have you ever sinned? God is love so why wouldn't he have mercy on one of his children? Don't put your judgement on God, remember he says that you will receive the judgement that you give to others. What is this nonsense about cleaning up the gene pool? I will pray very hard for you Bill. Bill W says; "as personally opposed to abortion as I am. It’s a medical procedure between a doctor and patiant.

NEVER IN MY 57 YEARS ON THIS EARTH DID I THINK I WOULD SEE AN ELDERLY PRIEST BEING TAKEN OFF A CATHOLIC CAMPUS IN HANDCUFFS WITH ROSARY IN HAND PROTESTING A PRO-ABORTION SPEAKER, THE PRESIDENT OF THE US NO LESS.

If people, although I am not saying I condone it a lot, practiced "safe" sex and protected themselves, the potential for abortion would lessen. You take a risk of possible conception when you choose to engage in intercourse. Abortion is the deliberate destruction of life no matter who you are, because last time I checked, conception (or fertilization) is the production of a NEW organism. It appalls me at how people have to debate what life is. God and those who fight for what is indeed right help this country and the ignorance of people, faith-based or not. I am a proud, conservative, Catholic American and will not rest when it comes to social issues like this when those who are innocent are oppressed. And to our President, I will support you when I agree with you (and I hope it gets to be more of the time in the future), and I will flat out take you down when I do not see eye-to-eye or understand your take on things.
