Giant City State Park
Spectacular woodlands and sheer sandstone walls create a challenge for rock climbing and rappelling, as well as hiking. Outdoor lovers will also find horseback riding, a lookout tower, cabins and a swimming pool. Dine at historic Giant City Lodge, known for its homemade fried chicken dinner. Two different locations in Giant City State Park near Carbondale give you climbing options. A trail behind the picnic shelter takes you to a set of steep bluffs known as Shelter #1 near the Makanda entrance; another climbing area of the park includes the steep sandstone cliffs in Devil's Standtable. Plan to bring all of your own equipment since no permanent anchors are allowed. Ropes are permitted in both areas. After rainstorms, the wet sandstone gets really slippery.

Western Digital My Book 3.0 External HD Review
The My Book 3.0 is a big "yes" for those who've been wondering if they wanted a USB 3.0 drive for their desktop PC. With its superfast performance and its included USB 3.0 PCIe card, the drive will significantly alter your expectations for external hard drives. Costing about $200 for the 1TB version and $280 for the 2TB version, the My Book 3.0 is $50 more expensive than its USB 2.0 counterpart; however, we feel it's well worth it.
If you have a PC desktop and are looking for a simple external hard drive, look no further than the My Book 3.0. However, we recommend that notebook users look at the Seagate BlackArmor PS110 USB 3.0.
Design and features
The My Book 3.0 is a no-frills storage device. It has a straightforward design with one tiny white light on its front that serves both as the power and activities indicator and on its back it only has a Mini-USB 3.0 port.
The drive is bundled with a Mini-USB 3.0 cable, a power adapter, a two-port PCIe USB 3.0 add-in card, a software CD, and a well-illustrated quick-setup poster. The PCIe add-in card includes a high-profile and a low-profile bracket, so that it can be installed in a regular-size desktop or a slim tower desktop, such as the Dell Inspiron 537s.
Even without the colorful quick-setup poster, it's very easy to set up the My Book 3.0. Just connect it to a computer using the included USB cable, plug in the power, and turn it on. The only tricky part is installing the PCIe card, which is only necessary for computers that don't already support USB 3.0. Still, if you know how to use a screwdriver and can follow the instructions, you shouldn't have any problems installing the card. Finally, you'll need to install the driver from the included CD.
If you are uncomfortable installing the PCIe card, the My Book 3.0 will work with any existing USB port, just at slower speeds. After installation, the hard drive is immediately available to the computer and is preformatted using NTFS file system.
According to Western Digital, it will soon release a more affordable, standalone version of the My Book 3.0 that won't include a PCIe card. So if you like the drive but don't need the PCIe card, just wait for the company to release the unbundled version.
Because of the My Book 3.0's design, you can't upgrade the hard drive yourself. This means you won't be able to replace the built-in SATA 2 (3Gbps) hard drive with a SATA 3 (6Gbps) drive. If you could, the My Book 3.0 could potentially operate faster since USB 3.0 can transfer files up to 4.8Gbps.
The My Book 3.0 doesn't include backup software, so you'll need to buy a third-party app if you want to use this drive to backup your system.
We tested the My Book 3.0 with both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 and were happy with its performance. The My Book USB 3.0 operated quietly and remained cool throughout the testing process, even during extended heavy loads.
When connected via USB 3.0, the device registered speeds up to 75.1MBps for the Write test and 59MBps for the Read test. These scores were in the same range as the Seagate BlackArmor PS 110 USB 3.0 and the Ineo USB 3.0 HDD Docking Station .
When connect via USB 2.0, the My Book 3.0 registered 24.9MBps for the Write test and 31MBps for the Read test. These numbers were among the fastest of USB 2.0-based external hard drives we've tested.

Deep Gnomes, are also known as svirfneblin, are legendary because they are so rarely seen. They live deep under the earth, where they create beautiful artifacts made of precious metals and gems, as well as fantastic creations of stonework. They live under constant threat of attack from other races. This has made the svirfneblin wise and agile, if somewhat timid and retiring.

Thank you! I hope, that I will find all answers to my questions... I had sponsor from London for Steps with Big Book. We began Steps at last autumn. Now I have four sponsees. We are working every week with BB. I had one question - what will happen, when I will begin to work with other woman (seven persons waiting for me...)
Now I found the answer - the Big Book sponsor. Does it mean, that I only navigate through the Steps by BB, and then I leave them to live by Twelve step?

Can any one confirm that this driver decreases (or completely removes) tearing with Compiz/Unity?
I just want to know this before I will re-install my OS.
Given the significantly variable reports of Catalyst's stability and that reinstalling your OS is something you're willing to do, why not try it out?
We test this driver version since release date on several 100 OpenELEC machines.
And for now - the users are really happy.
Focus we have here: xvba video acceleration, suspend / resume, Audio after suspend / resume
Features missing: mpeg2/mpeg4 hw decoding via xvba-sdk and _Bitstream Audio support_ - but this is a long term problem not related to this very good driver.
I added these in /etc/default/grub, then ran update-grub (my monitor has 1280x1024 resolution).
Works both with 13.4 and 13.6 and the 3.8 and 3.9 kernels. The VTs have 1280x1024 resolution too.Code:GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1280x1024x24,1280x1024
The vga=code options are deprecated, although it worked too after getting a message from the kernel (i actually set 1280x1024 , dont remember the actual vga code).
I have a A8-5500 APU and it was stable with any driver since 13.2 so maybe the 7xxx IGP series are better supported?

What do you think of the
Giordana FormaRed Carbon Men's Jersey
? Share a...
does not work for me; for others it will
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
love the fluoro green but unless you have a flat chest and abdomen it accentuates any slight bulges and may want a base layer to keep from flashing your nips. had to return it as the medium was too tight for my build at 5'8" 160lbs.
"Base layer to keep from flashing your nips," that's funny.
Frank D.
Perfect for Summer
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This jersey is breathable, comfortable, and lightweight. I ride on smaller country roads often so I chose the Fluo Green. You can definitely see right through even that color, but not a issue here 'cause its hot in South TX.
Alex De Ath
White is a bit see through
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
Great jersey, loved the color, fit was good (L for 6", 165lbs) but have sent back as white was too see through, would need to wear an undershirt
Good Summer Jersey
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a fantastic summer jersey. It's very light weight and breathes nicely. Top quality fabrics and styling is great.
My only gripe:
I also purchased a small and will agree with the previous reviewer that it is too long in the back. Additionally, I find that the pockets are just a bit too roomy - if you like to stuff your pockets with bars, gels, spare tubes, etc. you'll find that everything will fit. However, if you generally carry less stuff it tends to move around.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I am usually a big fan of Giordana. When I saw this jersey on sale, I bought one in size small. I am 5'6", 130 pounds. While the jersey does look great, I cannot agree with the other reviews here. This jersey is too long in the back, and the pockets are too loose, causing even light weight items to sag and jiggle around the like crazy. The front material and the sleeves are excellent, but the back material is frankly scratchy. Because high end jerseys like this one use so many different materials and panels, seams can become very annoying if they are not completely flat locked or bonded. I can't believe I have to return a Giordana product, but alas! Unfortunately, I think there are better jerseys at this price point or even for less. Bummer.
Great Jersey
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I've got a number of Castelli jerseys which are very nice and fit me well but this one is a cut above even the best Castellis. Beautiful material, perfect fit, vanishes when you have it on. If you can bring yourself to spend this much you'll find it very special.
Don't size up! That's a meaningless and potentially misleading recommendation ("size up" from what, Izod Polo, Castelli Aero Race, PI P.R.O., etc?). Just follow the size chart for a perfect fit.
Chris Sanger
I have three.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Love these jerseys, great fabric, great cut. fantastic construction. The white is a little see through, gotta wear a base layer. Breathes very well. Size up.
simply the best
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have several of the FRC jerseys and they,by far, are my favorite. The compression of jersey instantly makes you feel good when you put it on and it really does help to prolong muscular activity. It has just the right cut and the rear pockets are plenty deep to stuff food,arm warmers, etc in. They do tend to run a size small so I would suggest sizing up on this one. Do yourself a huge favor and pull the trigger on this jersey. You will be buying more,I assure you.
Max B
Awesome Jersey
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs small
I love Giordana. This jersey has a better feel than Forma of the past and looks sharp.

Alice's Attic: Running for our lives
My girlfriend, Jean (Doyle) Pederson, and I rode the school bus one-half mile to our farm home north of Egan, planning for a "pajama party," which usually involved a lot of giggling and not much sleeping.Finding out that my parents were not home, we dropped our books and coats and went looking for a snack. About that time, we heard a loud noise in our basement. We looked at each other, hearts pounding hard, and we both cried out, "George Sitts!"Sitts was a convicted murderer who had escaped from prison weeks earlier. He had killed Erik Johansson, a liquor store clerk, and also killed special agent Tom Matthews. At the time, he was being hunted and later re-captured in a vacant school not all that far from our area.Down the road on Jackson's farm lived three of the meanest, psychotic dogs that would have torn us into pieces if they had caught us, but, after our screaming and pushing through the screen door (never mind trying to open it), we didn't stop running the whole half mile. The dogs never had a chance to even warm up their legs. Not ever looking behind us, we were sure that Sitts was following us.Below the hill was a gas station that also housed two Doberman Pinscher guard dogs. But we kept running until we made it to a friend's house, not even stopping to check for cars on the highway. When we arrived, we were so out of breath we couldn't even speak.Later, when we were home again, my dad did some investigating. He claimed that the noise was made from our big cat pushing a box down the coal pile.George Sitts was 33 years old when he was executed by the State of South Dakota.

Extraordinary school rule
73 posts
• Page 1 of 3 • 1, 2, 3
Extraordinary school ruleI just found out today that my son's new primary school has an explicit rule that children are not allowed to ride to school until grade 5.
I tried to be polite giving my reaction to that, but it was a challenge. Part of me thinks 'if I known that before I would never have enrolled him'. The other thinks 'it's a rule that so obviously needs replacing with instead an explicit policy of getting as many kids to ride to school as possible that I'm glad I've found out about it and might be in some sort of position to change it'. Needless to say I'm going to ignore it for the time being.
Re: Extraordinary school ruleThat's pretty normal I think.
When I was going to school, I don't think it was allowed to ride to school at all. Walk, catch a bus or be driven as far as I can remember. This was back in the 80s or 90s and I do not ever remember anybody riding a bicycle to school at all. Funny thing is that in 2006 when I worked in Hurstville, I use to see a school kid, maybe around year 10 age on a pretty fast looking road-bike confidently mixing it up in the traffic on Forest Road most afternoons, evidently on his commute home from school. The school kid rode that bike in the traffic like a long time veteran commuter. How things change. In my area, I don't think riding to school would ever happen - everyone drives their children to school. Especially around the local private school in the morning, it's a sea of enormous SUVs bumper to bumper and even double-parked, nothing moves anywhere - traffic is completely destroyed. All you can do is register your absolute objection to the rule and be quite vocal about it. I think you can probably overrule them.
Re: Extraordinary school ruleUnenforceable.
How you transport your son to school is your business. Public roads are not the domain of school control. They may choose to exclude him from use of bike racks, or even prohibit his bike from the premises. However he is free to ride his bike to school and chain it to a pole outside the school, or leave it with someone who lives next to the school. Or maybe get yourself a trailgator and ride alongside him to school, then tow the bike home on the trailgator . You do have options. Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Re: Extraordinary school ruleSame here, except it's Grade 4.
It's upsetting, but I think their reasoning is sound. There are so many harried mums driving tractors around the front of the school, that I wouldn't feel comfortable letting my daughter ride in anyway. Of course, it'd be a different story if every other kid rode or took the walking school bus. Upsetting or not, facts are facts. Anyhow, after experiencing the frustration of trying to navigate the sea of barges on the first day, my wife has decided to walk my daughter to school as often as possible.
Re: Extraordinary school ruleAnd what's the age limit that kids should be accompanied to school by an adult? Year 5 I recall from my son's old school?

Re: Extraordinary school rule
Omigawd!!! Nanny-state par excellence Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Re: Extraordinary school ruleIt should be up to the parents to determine what is safe for their own children.
My wife and I decided that our son wasn't old enough to fide to school on his own into Year 5. Before that I would ride with to school and ride to school in the afternoon to accompany him home. John Beaven

Re: Extraordinary school rule
That is the irony. Imagine the uproar if the school banned students from being driven to school. Ny office is next door to a large north shore private school, and the number of expensive SUVs dropping off kids is crazy, despite the school being also next door to a major public transport hub with buses and trains!

Re: Extraordinary school rule
Now, you just need to convince the courts and your fellow parents to take the same view. At the end of the day, schools/teachers have to protect themselves from those whinging and litigious parents. Bianchi, Ridley, Montague, GT, Garmin and All things Apple
Re: Extraordinary school rule
Think, what excuses would a spouse have in justifying that spanking new SUV if it weren't for their daily children transport duties? Children and spouse gets to ride in comfort and style, car makers make a market, government receives luxury car duty, economy becomes buoyant... Who's to come to stop this?

Re: Extraordinary school rule
I just bought one in fact (as you may know from other threads). Tried to use this morning but it wasn't fastened properly, and didn't have time to fix - or so I thought. If I'd spent another 15 minutes getting it right I would have almost certainly got him to school much sooner (and without breaking his bike, when it fell over on the bus...long story). It's not about my own personal options, it's the fact that we seriously still even think such sort of rule makes any of sense that dumbfounds me.
Re: Extraordinary school ruleWas the same for me in late 80's early 90's, you werent allowed to ride to school unaccompanied until you had done bike-ed (which was grade 4 from memory). Normally im one for allowing people to make their own decisions in these types of situations but I actually agree with this one (and sogood).
Re: Extraordinary school rule
Does that make me a communist? Dear God, I'm having a crisis...
Re: Extraordinary school ruleRode to both primary schools i went to, I seem to remember their being more concern about kids getting swooped at the bike racks than actually riding their bikes to and from home and I was in primary school in the mid 90's.
Parents/schools want to stop children riding to school because it's the parents of other children at the school who might endanger their lives???
Re: Extraordinary school rule
What happens on the road to and from school has nothing to do with the school and/or teachers. Last edited by il padrone on Wed Feb 06, 2013 10:25 am, edited 1 time in total.

Re: Extraordinary school rule
The key word there is *unaccompanied*. I wouldn't have a problem with it in that case. But I was told they weren't allowed to ride at all.
Re: Extraordinary school ruleSTrewth, I rode to primary (Year 3) and continued riding to school until I got my license in year 11.

Re: Extraordinary school rulei haven't seen a rule like that in my kids' school. It's probably only a matter of time. It's a wealthy area and the crazy manouvres I see from the tractor-set have gotta be seen to be believed.
I walk my kids to school, we're only 1.2 km away, on my way to work. I was riding with my older one last year when she was in grade 2, but my younger preppie this year is not confident enough to ride yet. I often wonder how I got away with the freedom I had when I was a kid. I rode to school solo from grade 1 in a country town, then we moved to Brisbane and I walked in grade 3. I'm sure there are probably laws around that say children should never be unsupervised until over 12 y.o. I think for primary school kids, going to the local school, it's part of growing up being allowed to walk/ride to school on their own. Litespeed Tuscany Ti, Trek Superfly AL 29er, Trek 8000 rigid MTB
Re: Extraordinary school rule
I'd be asking for clarification, possibly just a poorly communicated message.
Re: Extraordinary school rule
Sad to say, quite a lot of kids have parents that can't be trusted on that score. Here in reality, not all kids get the parenting they should. But schools have rules, and it's entirely appropriate for the school, if they think there are elevated risks to kids from bike riding, to set a rule about it. It's for the parents to take the rule into account, and ignore it as wizdofaus will, or challenge it if it's baseless. But whining about the "nanny-statism" of primary schools... jeepers .

On what basis is it appropriate for the school to determine how I get him from my house to the school grounds? By all means they can forbid me from leaving the bike locked up in school grounds, but the ban is quite clear - children are not to use bikes to get to school until grade 5, accompanied or not. 'Baseless' doesn't even cover it...
Re: Extraordinary school rule
Under pain of death? If you did transport them to school by bicycle what would happen? Private school?
Re: Extraordinary school ruleOn the basis that they're interested in kid's welfare generally. But without knowing the circumstances I agree it's entirely possible, or probable, that it's just a dumb rule to be challenged at the P&C.
Re: Extraordinary school rule
In an ideal world yes, but those pesky parents and sensationalistic media will find a way to nail the department, school and teachers. Sad isn't it? Bianchi, Ridley, Montague, GT, Garmin and All things Apple

Macrosomia is a condition in which a baby is abnormally large before birth. The average birth weight for babies is about 7 pounds. Babies with macrosomia have a birth weight of at least 8 pounds, 13 ounces or more.
Macrosomia occurs in more than 10% of all pregnancies in the United States. It may lead to pregnancy complications such as a greater risk of cesarean delivery, damage to the birth canal, and injury to the baby during a vaginal delivery.
Babies born with macrosomia are more likely to have low blood sugar, respiratory distress, and jaundice.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The most common cause of macrosomia is diabetes in the mother during pregnancy.
Factors that increase your chance of giving birth to a baby with macrosomia include:
The main symptom of macrosomia is a birthweight of at least 8 pounds, 13 ounces or more. This birthweight may be estimated during prenatal testing.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical and pelvic examination will be done. An ultrasound can help determine the size of the baby before birth.
Your doctor will estimate the birth weight and evaluate any dangers for the mother and/or baby.
If the fetal macrosomia may cause potential harm during a vaginal delivery, a Cesarean delivery may be scheduled.
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment options include:
Recommended for babies too large to be safely delivered through the birth canal.
Feeding babies with macrosomia soon after birth is important to prevent low blood sugar in the baby.
Macrosomia may not always be prevented. Some steps that may help include:

Crime in Nashua has attention of lawmakers
One of those officials, state Rep. Mariellen MacKay, says now is the time to take back Nashua and help end the streak of violence before it gets worse. She is ready to help in whatever way is possible — even if that means approaching the governor's office for assistance.
Dealing with six homicides and 24 armed robberies so far this year, Police Chief John Seusing says he doesn't have an answer as to why there has been such an uptick in violent crime.
When reached by phone on Thursday, several members of the Nashua delegation shared differing thoughts on why Nashua is being plagued with more violent crimes, and exactly what might be the appropriate action.
The increased crime in Nashua is a very important topic, and must be discussed openly by numerous agencies, according to Gidge. This is an ideal time for the delegation to find out what funding — if any — may be available for the city. If there are grants that might be available for the police department , this is something that needs to be identified and sought by Nashua's state representatives, he added.
Rep. Jack Kelley, a former federal law enforcement official, had a slightly different take on the situation.
Although there have been 10 arrests from the 24 armed robberies this year, Gidge says his concern is that one person may be responsible for such a large amount of the crimes. He stressed, however, that the police department's undercover unit has become very effective in solving these matters.
"It is terrible that things happen like this in every area, but I think there has been an alarmist mentality. I have heard it myself this summer," said Gale, reminding people to use common sense when it comes to protecting themselves. "People need to put it into context."

Excellent lightweight base layer
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
It's a very thin material, which is perfect for temperate Southern California. It keeps me warmer when it's chilly, and helps dissipate sweat (and thus heat) when it's not. I use it all the time.

good lightweight layer
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I'm 6'2 and 200 and the large fits well. It is a very thin layer...my chest hair sticks through everywhere, but it is warm enough. I ended up cutting the sleeves down to 3/4 length and use it under my dress shirts in cold weather.

Nacrene City Gym

Nacrene City Gym (シッポウShippou Gym) | |
Information | |
Gym Leader: | Lenora |
Badge: | |
Type: | |
Region: | Unova |
City: | Nacrene City |
The Nacrene Gym(Japanese: シッポウジム Shippou Gym) is the official Gym of Nacrene City. It is based on Normal Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Lenora. Trainers who defeat her receive the Basic Badge.
[show]In the Games
In the games, the gym is located behind the Nacrene Museum. It has a library and a downstairs, hidden room, in which Lenora is located. The library contains numerous large bookshelves; 5 of these bookshelves have small step ladders in front of them. When the player walks up these ladders, the player can interact with a book. The books have various memos inside them; the player must locate them one after the other and solve them. After finding all of them, one of the bookshelves will move aside, letting the player reach the lower room.
The lower room has two glass cases with exhibits on display. Lenora awaits challengers in the middle of the room. At the back, there are several more bookshelves along with the Gym logo.
In the Anime
The Nacrene Gym is located inside the Nacrene Museum. The Museum is a historical building and features a large range of exhibits such as fossils, skeletons, knight's armor and tombs. Hawes is the vice-curator of the museum. Near the back is a library where a code is needed in order to get to another library with a diverse range of different books. Here, Lenora will test the Trainer to see what type of Trainer they are. She will point to the book that reveals the staircase to the Gym, and the Trainer, based on how they read Lenora's actions, will either try to read it or search for another book.
Once finding the correct book, they head downstairs to the battlefield. The battlefield has a normal, basic terrain. In A Night in the Nacrene City Museum! a Yamask was causing havoc in the museum.
Ash challenged Lenora in The Battle According to Lenora! where he lost. Ash finally won in Rematch at the Nacrene Museum!, earning himsef the Basic Badge.

Posted by catholictigerfan on 1/30 at 7:56 am to Layabout quote: there wouldn't have been 56 million abortions. in the span of a couple of years after RVW was decided the abortion rate skyrocketed in this country. Also countries where abortion was legal and now it is becoming illegal have abortions at a very very low rate. So based on these facts abortions wouldn't happen anywhere close to a million+ a year rate as it is currently. Reply Back to Top |

Posted by catholictigerfan on 1/30 at 10:41 am to asurob1 quote: so let me get your logic here. it doesn't matter how bad something is lets make it legal anyway because making something illegal doesn't help to stop it. so if infanticide was legal you would be ok with it because it would be a large decreasing one anyway. btw I backed up my statements with real world examples poland made abortion illegal and the rates dropped significant. As soon as RVW became legal abortion rates when through the roof. I give examples all you call me is a funny little man and expect me to believe you based on no facts. my question is yeah people drank during prohibition but how many people drank did less people drink or did they drink as much as they did when it was legal.

quote: yes surprising isn't it. I told you guys a long long time ago. I have a cutoff time when I think that abortion is no longer acceptable (except when the mother's life is in peril, then it's always acceptable). I think within the first three or four months the majority of women are capable of deciding whether or not they want to share space with the fetus. Once that time limit is up. Then they "are" sharing space. This is very consistent with my belief system. This post was edited on 1/30 at 11:52 am Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Keltic Tiger on 1/30 at 11:59 am to catholictigerfan catholictiger, I did not "misinterpret" what your message is. In one earlier thread, you used the word "murderer" to define anyone who had an abortion.Pretty black & white comment. Go back just a few pages here & reread your comments bout prison time for any raped female who has an abortion.Again,pretty black & white. I have no problem with your defense of being anti abortion. You are entitled to your own beliefs & choices re same. But when you cross the line & start defaming innocent females & proclaim that these innocent females should be imprisoned, because that is your religious-based belief..........yet, Father _____ does understand where my family & I are coming from & supports my sister like anyone else in his "flock". Because he gets out of that ivory tower that the Church can easily become & walks the streets of his parish. As for getting under my skin: forget the love that every brother has for his sister. I'd love to show you the pictures that the police took of my sister after she was taken to the hospital that evening. I'd want you to take a long, hard look at her "before" pictures & then, those. Then look at me & tell me she is a murderer who deserves prison time. If rape abortions is only 1% of your statistics, then this is one big 1% to me; the point being this issue is not about stats, rather, it's bout real people out there.Reply Back to Top |
Posted by catholictigerfan on 1/30 at 12:56 pm to Keltic Tiger quote: if you say I don't care for women who are going through abortions then yes you have. quote: look I don't want to surgarcoat abortion I don't want to dumb it down or anything. Its pretty simple the fetus is a human being deserving rights and protection under the law from the moment of conception. So directly attacking it from no matter what way you look at is murder. It's a tough issue but that is the nature of it. quote: I wish I could say this in another way but women who have abortion aren't innocent. Their culpablity can change and your sisters is very very low but the fact of the matter is killing an innocent human being is wrong in the eyes of God. quote: As I have said I'm glad your priest does this. I don't think it neccessarliy means he agrees with what your sister did but he being a priest of Jesus Christ loved you like you are family and was there ever step of the way. The Church is in the world with the people and they know the reality of the world, we aren't like the philosophers of old who sit on a high mountain and write philosophy every day. We understand what people go through we are there to see what the reality of the world is like. We also have 2000 years of tradition and understanding that goes into our understanding including our position on abortion. quote: I never said your sister deserved Jail time her situation is alot different then almost all abortions, she was rapped and because of that her culpability is much less lower then those who have an abortion because its inconvenient. But discussing sentences are a waste of time. lastly and real quickly I do care about women and I understand how difficult a pregnancy can be for people espically unplanned one. I know the horrors of rape, even though I don't know what people go through who are rapped and are the family of a rape victim. I've always tried to show this. but something that is part of my belief set and my morality and that of the church as well that from conception there is a human life, and it is the beautiful gift of God. Created in the image and likeness of God, loved by him as much as he loves you and me. While the reality of rape is horrible and I don't even wish my enemies to go through that. Nothing and I MEAN NOTHING justifies the killing of an innocent human being who has just as much dignity as you and me. I'll leave it at this if in the future someone with a deep personal connection to me or someone I know well is rapped and gets pregnant I would do my best to be like that priest was for you. BUT I care just as much as that baby inside that women's womb, and because of that I would want her to go through her pregnancy have the child. If she had an abortion I would be there too but I would strongly strongly advise against it. You and ASUrob may not believe me but I promise you that I would because I love people that much I care for people and it hurts me to see people hurt in that way. This is just a tough issue and it effects people. I really hope you see where I'm coming from. Don't get tied up to much in how I say abortion is murder and your sister had an abortion. Try to see how much I care for the human being the in the women of a child and maybe you'll understand where I'm coming from. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Keltic Tiger on 1/30 at 4:16 pm to catholictigerfan catholictiger, so, it is a "tough issue" for you. What an amazing comment. It must be nice to be that sheltered. I am talking to the rape counselor who helped my sister & the family this wkend, & I'll make sure he knows that this particular type of hell is just a "tough issue but the way it is". As to ".... in the eyes of God": Must be nice as well to get that message directly from God. My sister, myself, our parents, her husband, we all must have been asleep when he spoke to us, because our beliefs are different.Or he only speaks to anti abortionists. And I have no problem believing your sincerity when it comes to understanding how you feel bout an unborn fetus. Just quit trying to force your beliefs on others, or at the very least, quit trying to protray them as if you are Moses coming down from The Mount with all the answers. Your beliefs do not necessarily translate to the almighty truth for the rest of the world. I don't judge you or your beliefs. Why cann't you give us the same privilege?Reply Back to Top |
