Culture of LifeHypocrisy

[merlinofchaos]

"Today millions of Americans are saddened by the death of Terri Schiavo. ... I urge all those who honor Terri Schiavo to continue to work to build a culture of life where all Americans are welcomed and valued and protected.

"Especially those who live at the mercy of others. The essence of civilization is that the strong have a duty to protect the weak. In cases where there are serious doubts and questions, the presumption should be in the favor of life."

Unless you're poor. Or gay.

No, no. We're liberating them. From the scourge of breathing, apparently.

The presumption should be in favor of life. The life of those already living, not the theoretical life of those unborn or the equally theoretical life after death. Pity the alleged pro-life crowd can't see that.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if we missed the second coming because some poor scared girl had an abortion? Bahahaha. ahem.

I think we're much more likely to miss the second coming because the messiah will decide to be born as a girl, and nobody will pay Her a blind bit of notice.
