Yes some times arguments produce nothing, even though we think like we have proved a point.

I will just stick to my blog from now on… If you think there is something important going on on Jill’s blog and needs extra publicity feel free to let me know. I still think we can help each other even though we may disagree on particularities of how to go about what we do.

I have promised my readers few posts about the conference in San Francisco- I should probably do just that for now.

Vlad, yes I’m Catholic. I agree with Pope John Paul II’s message of hope and forgiveness, I would never withhold that, which brings me to the mutilated pictures,.. I was thinking how I first got involved with pro-life causes, I think I was always pro-life but never paid much attention until I saw these pictures of the killed unborn children. It was when I saw what exactly abortion was that got me involved. The pictures are not meant to humilate the woman, but to offer warning about abortion. I don’t think many younger women stop to consider this. That’s why I (through my local church) donate money, supplies, etc to the local CPC.

Re: the arguing: there are many disagreements and minor battles at JillStanek.com (abortion can be an emotional issue). There are better moderators who can articulate there position than I (LOL).. I did listen to what you had to say about taking a breath before responding. I am certainly imperfect and have to do a better job about lashing out so quickly.

I took a little time to “digest” your criticism in your comment above.

I am presuming you are catholic, therefore I will quote for you Pope John Paul II:

“I would now like to say a special word to women who have had an abortion. The Church is aware of the many factors which may have influenced your decision, and she does not doubt that in many cases it was a painful and even shattering decision. The wound in your heart may not yet have healed. Certainly what happened was and remains terribly wrong. But do not give in to discouragement and do not lose hope. Try rather to understand what happened and face it honestly. If you have not already done so, give yourselves over with humility and trust to repentance. The Father of mercies is ready to give you his forgiveness and his peace in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. To the same Father and his mercy you can with sure hope entrust your child. With the friendly and expert help and advice of other people, and as a result of your own painful experience, you can be among the most eloquent defenders of everyone’s right to life. Through your commitment to life, whether by accepting the birth of other children or by welcoming and caring for those most in need of someone to be close to them, you will become promoters of a new way of looking at human life.” – 99, Evangelium Vitea

The above is the message of hope. If we claim to be pro-life, we simply have no other choice but to tell others that there is hope and forgiveness.

As a matter of fact I can not make any sense of what you have written….. except that you neither agree nor disagree. Can you elaborate more?

I am sorry you are getting insulted by me comparing certain segment in the pro-life movement to Taliban. It was in no way directed at you.

I stand by what I said. There is a time and place to look at these posters. Abortion clinic is not the right place. Crisis pregnancy not the right timing.
