Rapunzel...my post that you quoted was in general and not to anyone specific. please don't think it's directed toward you unless it applies. my point is that no one knows what a girl is going through and has been through to make her make the choice

i found this today ... & i thought i would share it ![]() i totally agree with what she is saying ![]() these have been my beliefs & feelings all along too ![]() although i have never been in support of abortion or pro choice ![]() I know this is a sensitive subject ![]() I am not here to hurt anyone's feelings ![]() I am not here to lay any trip on anyone ![]() but instead ~ to encourage always the preciousness ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() this was posted on my < Twins > Son & Daughter's 33rd Birthday ![]() ![]() ![]() http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,518087,00.html Monday, April 27, 2009 Kathy Ireland Supermodel Kathy Ireland Lashes Out Against Pro Choice It’s no secret that the majority of Hollywood stars are strong advocates for a woman’s right to choose whether or not she wants to terminate a pregnancy, however former "Sports Illustrated" supermodel-turned-entrepreneur-turned-author Kathy Ireland has gone against the grain of the glitterati and spoken out against abortion. "My entire life I was pro-choice — who was I to tell another woman what she could or couldn’t do with her body? But when I was 18, I became a Christian and I dove into the medical books, I dove into science," Ireland told Tarts while promoting her insightful new book "Real Solutions for Busy Mom: Your Guide to Success and Sanity." "What I read was astounding and I learned that at the moment of conception a new life comes into being. The complete genetic blueprint is there, the DNA is determined, the blood type is determined, the sex is determined, the unique set of fingerprints that nobody has had or ever will have is already there." However Ireland admitted that she did everything she could to avoid becoming a believer in pro-life. "I called Planned Parenthood and begged them to give me their best argument and all they could come up with that it is really just a clump of cells and if you get it early enough it doesn’t even look like a baby. Well, we’re all clumps of cells and the unborn does not look like a baby the same way the baby does not look like a teenager, a teenager does not look like a senior citizen. That unborn baby looks exactly the way human beings are supposed to look at that stage of development. It doesn’t suddenly become a human being at a certain point in time," Ireland argued. "I’ve also asked leading scientists across our country to please show me some shred of evidence that the unborn is not a human being. I didn’t want to be pro-life, but this is not a woman’s rights issue but a human rights issue." "In that instant, your intention is not to kill but to save the life of another. If we’re about to demolish a building we make absolute certain there are no human beings in there before we take a wrecking ball to it, but the unborn doesn’t have a voice so it's up to us to speak for them," she added passionately. "If I see someone abusing a child I am going to stand up against that, and that’s how I feel about abortion. Women are not given all the facts, they’re told it is a harmless procedure and now it has turned into such a political football." The committed Christian and devoted mother even dedicated the chapter "Faith & Your Family" in her new book to her foundations in Christianity and believes that this is what’s missing from so many American families today. "You have to figure out your own values and why you have them. People are going to try and push and pull at your convictions, so you have to have boundaries and put them in place," she said. Thanks for this posting Rapunzel. I am very much in favor of prolife. ![]() |

Rapunzel...I'm sorry if you personalized my post. it was NOT directed to anyone in specific. I speak from first hand knowledge and speaking my opinion.
![]() I think it's great if someone is pro-life, but that is for them just as pro-choice is for those people |

It won't be long before the pro-choice people scold her and call her names for expressing her right to free speech.I am sure they are already demanding for her job dismissal.There is probably at least 3 lawsuits by the ACLU for emotional distress that the people at planned parenthood suffered due to the fact that less people came in that day.Maybe the gay crowd can get involved and claim that because she is a Christian she also must not like gays. This has nothing to do with being gay, yet you still managed to bring up gay people? And he still managed to bring up the ACLU. ![]() |
