Abortion Opinions (no flaming)
Yeah there isn̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t anything more to sex then having children, do you know how naive that statement is (the truth finally comes out, abstinence the best form of protection!)? Do you know what it̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s like to have sex with a partner you love, the reason for sex in a relationship isn̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâjust because̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ or ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâfor fun̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢; Just because there is an associated risk with doing something doesn̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t mean you shouldn̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t do it. Sex is an integral part of many peoples marriage, I̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢m willing to gamble that many people on the pro-life side do indeed have sex; are you seriously saying to me that you̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢re planing to abstain from sex when you don̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t want a child (so what̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s that sex for a few periods of your whole life)? You better stop eating because you might get fat have a heart attack and die. Every action we take has some form of risk; you can̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t live life in a bubble. No I don't. I'm one of those funny Christians who will enjoy sex for both procreation and intimacy safely within the bounds of marriage. And you don't have to abstain from sex if you don't want a child in marriage, you can use a variety of techniques to not get pregnant in the first place. Never said you shouldnt, only that you should be ready to reap what you sow if you are not prepared.

what do you drive?
Here she is hibernating with her winter coat. 1994 Saturn SL-2 (ask any Saturn dealer and they will tell you it was the best Saturn ever made). A previous owner tuned it slightly for racing, but I have not the details for that. Leather seats, power everything, and a max speed of 147 miles per hour. She's starting to fall apart on me, but I love her still. Reposted because Phil closed the other topic.

I disagree with him. And there are about 2.5 billion Christians in the world, thats a big following. Not all are Catholic. I don't even know what the new Pope's name is. His word doesn't interest me, since I have a personal relationship with God (and Christ). But we digress. This thread is not for religious talk (that should go in the "Do you believe in God?" thread. This is more of a moralistic debate.

The fact that there are millions of people in the world who do not follow Jesus is proof enough for me that Christianity is false. Mind elaborating? After all, God told Adam to be fruitful and multiply.

To which I also agree. Consentual sex shouldn't happen unless both partners are ready to accept the consequences. Birth control should be taken, and I would reccomend both a condom and the pills. That way, the chances of pregnancy are slim to none.

Final fantasy 10 help
The trick to Seymour 3 is to wait until he charges up his attack, then use an Aeon as a sacrificial lamb. Having abilities to counterattack really helps as well. With the Temple Guardian fight (your next boss battle) be ready to die lots of times. That thing throws every status effect in the game at you.

If you were to die tomorrow...
Say goodbyes and die sleeping. Amen.

I have volunteered in adoption centers several times, mind you. I'm sure the mother feels less emotional trauma when she treats the unborn child like unwanted waste bye-product instead of the cute warm fuzzy baby. Of course, I am under the bold claim that if the mother is not in a position to have a child, she should not be having sex in the first place.

DAVE CHAPELLE IS BACK! woot woot!
I reluctantly admit that I find him amusing. Especially the episode on Gay America and "I know Black People!" Aside from that, I wasn't really impressed with the show.

Heheheh, a funny misplacement of words... I knew you were going to comment in some fashion, but do you mind elaborating on that? You said 'contreception' (contraception) which means PREVENTING conception. I believe you meant that life begins at CONCEPTION, meaning when the sperm enters the egg. It is funny because saying 'life begins at contraception' sounds a bit like a slogan of some sort. Haha, thanks for the correction. Yeah, this morning I was not exactly playing with a full deck. I had a really shoddy night of sleep. I hate to say it, but I have to. She doesn't have to abort if she cannot provide for the baby. The world of adoption is not exactly as glamorous as a normal life, but its better than never seeing the light of day, isnt it? I am completely opposed to abortion unless it's in the case of rape (the woman did not make the decision to have the child) or in cases when the mother's life is definately known to be in danger by the pregnancy.

1. Not at all. Abortion itself is not a sin, but murdering falls under the 10 commandments. I believe full well that life begins at contreception. We consider single-celled organisms to be life, yes? What sets apart this single-celled organism is the fact that it WILL be a child. 2. I do not have the right to impose my views on others. That would be vigilanteism. But the government has that right. If the majority of the people in a state wish something to happen that is within consitutional means, I see no problem with it happening. 3. Very much aware, and that works both ways. Everyone talks about the moral conservative Christians running this country into the ground. As a moral conservative Christian, I am persecuted everyday by non-Christians. Abortion is not entirely a religious matter, however. Regardless of if you are religious or not, that baby is still alive. 4. No.

7 March 2006 - Canoeing, Zygomites and a Mole! (0's-O's)
A chef's hat? :lol: Wonder what its been eating.... :shock: Considering Jagex's trend of honoring the OoC in Falador, I wouldn't be surprised if it eats recruits. Thats where they go to! Other tributes include sacks, an improved patch *no clutter*, and the avatar of our leader Blackbane drunk in the second floor of Falador Inn.

The gazette write's another article on shiva. Tip.it Include
She contacted Lightning (who posted a tribute to Shiva to the funeral home's website) and the staff was fully made aware of her time here. The article would have had more TIF quotes if she had not been forced to finalize the article sooner than expected.

If you read the post above mine... :P My quote is from the Tip.It times article. And yes, she had an account at these boards.

Stupid weeks of no updates generally mean a very refined and good update, my friend.

She used quotes from Tip.It in the article. In fact, I was quoted ("He was my best friend in the virtual world"). Im not sure if Lightning wants to say more on the subject.

Medieval Japan was pretty much the same as medieval Europe, cultural differences aside. In fact, the fuedal system was identical. Samurai didn't come until the 15th century.

Neat idea, but you need to post this in the advertising thread stickied in this forum. This is advertising. Keep up the good work on the game, though.

Why do heavy alcoholics drink? To forget thier troubles. I really don't have hard website evidence because I just meant this as a tag on to my post, after seeing that he actually thought the life of pornography was glamorous.

Poor wording on my part. The business does not force them into drug or alcohol habits, but guilt does. After rereading, I see where the mistake was made. And my evidence from the previous post on sex addiction was from noted experts on sexual problems. I mean, its Dr. Drew!

Oh my God. These posts make me want to cry. Self-gratification is actually heathy for you. I believe I read a study somewhere that said men who self-gratificate are about half as likely to get prostate cancer. It attacks your judgement? Well, maybe for a few moments, but its not like your on an acid trip or anything like that. Talk about over-exaggeration. I dont know about you, but I don't see many self-gratification-addicts. I've never see anyone run home just so they can do something like that. People use the word addiction too liberally. It should really only be associated with things you can have a physical dependence on. Otherwise , so many people will be addicted to so many things. I am addicted to the Internet and television. Does that mean we should get rid of them? Of course not. The porn sites wouldn't be open if people weren't addicted? Couldn't the same logic be applied to any other type of store or activity? EDIT: Sorry about the double post... Didn't realize it when I was posting. And also another edit: "It prodouces marijuana-like effects" Wow. I wish. Your ignorance is unbelievable. No, actually, you make me cry because you don't do research. Here are some resources for sex addiction. I am not talking about once or twice a day, Im talking 5-rediculous times a day. http://drdrew.com/Topics/article.asp?id=377 http://menshealth.about.com/od/sexualhe ... dictio.htm Theres tons more, but Google is being mean and whacking out on me. I might post more later. Would cigarette or alcohol companies be open if people weren't addicted? Sure, the odd person would pass by, but the reason these companies keep the addictive substances in thier product is that people will be hooked and continue to buy the product. With sexual addiction, pornography works in the same manner. So to answer your question, yes. I never said it was not like any other company. If you do research on sexual addiction, and read other posts in here instead of acting like God, you would reaize that sexual addiction is physically based. Arousal forms chemicals in your brain, and too many of these chemicals acts like drugs, and has addictive effects. Over time, it can completely change someone's behavior. I never doubted that. But thats if you only do it lightly. Having a sip of wine every day is healthy for your heart, but excessively is bad for you. Same with self gratification. Read the posted articles. It's sad, but there are over 300,000 Americans checked into rehab for sexual addiction. It is believed that there are over 700,000 more who have symptoms, but have not talked to a doctor. It affects both men and women. People often do not know it exists (like in your case) and therefore are unaware of the consequences. You do realize that after 30 minutes of love making, the man and woman are technically so high off of sexual chemicals that they are legally intoxicated, right? The same applies to self gratification if it is done more than 8 times in a day. This keeps these sexual chemicals from clearing out, and the effect builds. Welcome to enlightenment, and never criticize someone without looking up the facts. My post did not orginally attack those who self gratificate, just those who are addicted to it chemically. Many porn stars are forced into crack habits to try and get over the moral disdeeds that they have performed. Of any occupation in the US, pornography features the highest suicide rate. I'm sure it sounds cool at first, but once you get past the free sex, it's really a sad world for desperate men and women.

Self gratification is bad for you, if you do it often enough. It produces marijauna-type effects, attacks your judgement, and will affect your behavior like any other addiction. The same effect happens to people who have sex to much. And there are hundreds of thousands of people in the US alone who are addicted to pornography. The porno sites would not be open if there wasnt.
