If guys really did/do consider the ramifications of unprotected sex before having it I do believe there would be a lot less women end up pregnant in the first place. What is it they call it " thinking with the wrong head ".? Im saying that ultimately even though it is the woman left "holding the bag" errr fetus it is only She who is going to be pregnant Guys get to walk away and many do. Ive said it over and over CONTRACEPTION aka no need for an abortion in the first place. And that fact remains constant. This court decision doesn't impact me personally but i fear for all the women it ultimately may. For many reasons. One of my Christian GF's posted this and Ima gonna leave it here and that'll be that. :::Leh-nerd looks about, incredulous, asking no one in particular “Did the Muppet just lecture me on sexual dynamics and say ‘That’ll be that????’ Leh-nerd mutters “What the?”…followed by “You can’t just…?!” and finally “Oh, it’s on now!” To your first point, I never suggested reason and rational thought win the day for a high percentage of men where an opportunity for physical gratification is in play. “Paradise by the Dashboard Light” is a good listen in this regard, Mup, and sums things up pretty nicely. It was a modestly successful tune sung by this chubby guy out Texas in the late 1970s. Let me know if you haven’t heard the song and I’ll check my LPs, toss it on a cassette and mail it to ya for a listen 😉. I agree the woman carries the full weight of the pregnancy, and acknowledge that some guys walk. It’s a problem that has to be addressed legally, and that costs time and money. Personally, I think you can tell a lot about the character of a man by how he treats the children in his life. On to Robert Veitch-Van Winkle…what I can say without vomiting is that some of his grand ideas are already in play…DNA testing, legally enforceable child support etc. The rest is pandering balderdash of the highest order, and presumptuous in the nature of certain older male baby boomers who only can see women as the weaker sex. He also should read up on laws dealing with the disposition of one’s estate. By the way, on the deadbeat dad issue. I used to think I knew the story until a friend of mine found out his wife was cheating on him, and she subsequently wanted a divorce. The guy is a good dude, with a good job, and a good father. He didn’t want a divorce. We got to taking one day about a father’s obligation, and he told me that in his case, his obligation was based on his gross pay, that is to say, in part on money he simply did not have. Of course, the government takes its non-negotiable cut before anything happens, and in his case, and as a result he was left with very little to live on. His opinion was that more than a few “deadbeats” are victims of a system based on unreasonable demand unmanageable calculations. This matter is now officially closed. Later skater. 1 1
Orlando Buffalo Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 This topic in general could be rewritten to say " what is the supreme court going to properly make Congress do". For too long the supreme court has passed rulings that far exceed their authority. Congress needs to step up and do their jobs 1 1

An imperfect organized religion that has at many times been led by bad men lost to the devil, but who's ultimate message and beliefs have been a massive net positive for humanity, freedom, and ultimately salvation. I suggest you read some of what Thaddeus Stevens said on the Floor of the House in defense of the 13th Amendment: Here....I'll share: "Those who believe that a righteous Providence punishes nations for national sins believe that this terrible plague is brought upon us as a punishment for our oppression of a harmless race of men inflicted without cause and without excuse for ages. I accept this belief; for I remember that an ancient despot, not so cruel as this Republic, held a people in bondage — a bondage much lighter than American slavery; that the Lord ordered him to liberate them. He refused. His whole people were punished. Plague after plague was sent upon the land until the seventh slew the firstborn of every household; nor did they cease until the tyrant 'let the people go.' We have suffered more than all the plagues of Egypt; more than the first-born of every household has been taken. We still harden our hearts and refuse to let the people go. The scourge still continues, nor do I expect it to cease until we obey the high behest of the Father of men. We are about to have another opportunity to obey this command. We are about to ascertain the national will by another vote to amend the Constitution. If gentlemen opposite it will yield to the voice of God and humanity and vote for it, I verily believe the sword of the destroying angel will be stayed and this people be reunited. If we still harden our hearts and blood must still flow, may the blood of the victims sit heavily on the hearts of those who cause it." Congressional Globe, 38 Cong. 2 session, January 13, 1865, p. 124 Judeo-Christian values. No way!!! We've been a God fearing nation since day 1. Those traditions and beliefs are embedded in our DNA and its what makes Western Civilization what it is today. Its under attack by clueless morons and Communist thugs. But Black, white, brown, immigrants, all of us. The further we've drifted to a secular utopia............well....... And don't bother trying to find the loons that have used scripture to justify evil ends like the pope calling for a crusade in 11th century medieval times. We know. Send them to the ash heap of history to. 2
LeviF Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 It always amazes me that leftists will simply re-invent child support as a solution. Bonus points for suggesting that mandatory DNA paternity testing is somehow a progressive own against men. But if that's the response, I find those terms acceptable. 3

Tucker absolutely nailed this last night In a corporate world hiring and promoting more and more young women, it is in their interest to see that these women have few or no children. It costs money on insurance. It takes the women's attention and focus away from the job being priority one. They're going to pay for their abortions now. Why aren't they offering to pay pre natal care and child support? Corporations are now fully in bed with the Democrat party unless people missed that post Covid just thought I'd remind them that realignment has happened. Edited June 28, 2022 by Big Blitz
unbillievable Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 Is there a state that is banning abortion? States are putting in restrictions, so the left is screaming "ban!" Reminds me of the Gun control debate. Democrats enact strict gun control and the right screams "ban", too. Maybe there should be an abortion amendment. Everyone keeps citing that most Americans support it. Although, Kamala, and the media, seem to believe it's already in the Constitution...

Unless by "God is dead," you actually mean "The Commies are coming to run it back like it's 1917." Good luck. I'll settle for running it back like it's 1994 tho. Can we at least make that happen. The concept of god is dead, you simpleton. We don't need that crap anymore. I have something to tell you about Santa Clause, too - long overdue. Are you sitting down?

Do you think that the circumstances that led you to "find Jesus" again are inevitable? Look into the changing views of the younger generations on this matter and you will see a country that is becoming steadily more secular. The fact that aging boomers are trying to control what's to come after they're gone is - well, it's a bit sad, really. Belief is slowly being cast aside in the name of science and progress, and that is a good thing. We are witnessing the death rattle of failed hippies who have become what they once hated most.

I found Jesus because I gave it an actual hard look at the world, nothing inevitable about it. You sound like my extended family members who say similar things to justify their behavior. But I have a real question for you, do you believe we have a soul?
