[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]What is all this focus on "judging" in today's society? Everything is so relativistic. Guess what, people judge, and they judge all the time. You ran a red light? We judge in society that you did so, and that is wrong. You didn't hold a door for someone who was just walking behind you and it slammed in their face? We judge: "You were rude." Yet in this one issue, everyone goes around repeating hook line and sinker the PP/NARAL line, "Don't judge, don't judge, don't judge." Boy, they really sent a lot of folks down the river on this one. [/quote] Hey, judge all you want - no skin off my nose. Your opinion of me is completely irrelevant. Hysterical screeds like the OP's ("How could you DO such a thing") and diatribes from the holy-roller set don't make me second-guess myself. But when you switch from judging my choice to actively trying to strip the ability to make that choice from me - that's where I start to get cranky. [/quote] Actually, there are many potential choices that are restricted by various laws. Judges, judgments, opinions, etc limit our choices all the time. We don't get to do whatever we want in this ole world. Sorry.[/quote] I'm glad the deliberately obtuse are able to join us today. Obviously, no one's talking about a free-for-all. Currently, the right to terminate a pregnancy is a choice that is protected by law. So when you good folk try to strip others of that choice, you're going to get some pushback. Disapprove all you want, but you'll have a battle on your hands when you move from tut-tutting to "since I don't agree with the choices you made, you lose the ability to make them." This can't be a surprise you you, can it? [/quote] Interesting that if anyone tries to change a law or add an amendment with which YOU happen to disagree, you toss out words like "free-for-all" and "deliberately obtuse?" [/quote]
