It really isn't as black and white as we often try to make it. I'm all for doing everything possible to make it unnecessary in most cases.AlexisARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797016673203467911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-62589695459637248102014-05-03T16:58:38.229-07:002014-05-03T16:58:38.229-07:00I agree, I find abortion horrifying, though I don&...I agree, I find abortion horrifying, though I don't consider it strictly a pro-life vs. pro-choice debate. I think labeling makes the situation more black and white than it actually is. I'm glad that I live in a country that allows me access to birth control (all forms), and allows me to choose whether or not I use it. I agree with you that there are exceptions. I don't advocate for abortion, though I feel it's a personal choice.

My guess is that he gives "generously" -whatever the hell that means -- to the collection plate in his house of worship, and that he assumes his offerings go to help the women who have found themselves with child without benefit of a husband , or to those children whose parents have left them to be raised by others. He probably gives the matter little thought after dropping his dime in the collection plate.AlexisARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797016673203467911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-55978542888751012512014-05-03T11:36:58.604-07:002014-05-03T11:36:58.604-07:00I can't remember in which book he advocated th...I can't remember in which book he advocated that -- I read it in some obviously perverted doctor's waiting room while waiting hours for a scheduled a appointment -- but now my dad insists I'm making the whole thing up or dreamed it, because nothing that bizarre would be published even in the quasi -mainstream religious right. I told him he needs to open his eyes to the porn in all its various forms that is available.AlexisARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797016673203467911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-86469479074019898382014-05-03T11:33:06.542-07:002014-05-03T11:33:06.542-07:00The only way to read a Dobson book, in my opinion,...The only way to read a Dobson book, in my opinion, is to get a nice buzz going, then then to open the up and laugh away.AlexisARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797016673203467911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-45709130833049986022014-05-03T11:29:28.879-07:002014-05-03T11:29:28.879-07:00God help the poor children who have been raised wi...God help the poor children who have been raised with this nut job's advice as a guide in parenting.

He really is a lunatic. My feelings about abortion are like yours. It's a terrible thing, but in some cases, it's justified.
