Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Abortion Discussion, Part Trois

Not so sure that faith is required. While you have a number of pro-life atheists such as Hitchens and pro-life humanists, the vast majority are closely connected to conservative religious groups. While correlation is not causation, I think it is a bit of a stretch to consider this coincidental, don't you? It is also worth remembering that atheists don't form a homogeneous group with a common world view, so for any major issue you would expect to find atheists on either side. This is very different to dogmatic religious organisations such as the Catholic church where the position on such issues is decreed by the hierarchy (even though it is increasingly ignored in countries such as Ireland), where pro-life is the party line.
Yup, we humans can be just ornery folk at times.

Aye, there was a few anti-abortionistas out and about along the march route but I found there to be far more support than opposition from the sidelines which was very nice to see. Cheering, clapping, chanting. I noticed the North Earl Street guy, reminding us that we were all sinners. Well surely he believes in original sin so, like, duh. :pac:
Some of the chants and banners were hilarious: "They tried to make me go to England, but I said "No No No!"", "Hail Mary, full of grace, allow to us repeal the eighth!", "Not your pussy, not your problem!", a laminated piece of paper saying "I have an A3 laminator, in your face, anti-choicers!" Way more that I can't remember. Can anyone else remember any?
Two stick in mind: Defeotus? Me Bollix! (two lines) AND Think Outside My Box.0 -

Just to keep on the topic of Nazi's, it seems the Youth Defense just can't help itself (just like frosty)
Making comparisons in relation to pro-choice and the final solution, slaves etc
Utterly pathetic,
The video is full of lies, repeal the 8th doesn't equal to what they are claiming in the video and they know it. Also once the 8th is removed we would simply legislate (like a normal country)
But then do we expect anything more then lies and deception from Youth Defense, I certainly don't. Infact if tomorrow they started claiming that repealing the 8th would actually mean all women would have to have atleast one abortion I wouldn't be the least bit surprised.
I honestly think they are incapable of speaking the truth and sticking to facts.0 -

Why are you asking him?
Edit: ask Mrs Butler from Tolka Row, you might have to "google" for the answer.0 -

Fatima is definitely Catholic as well though, I think the link is the Arab conquest of Spain/Portugal.
You mean you don't know the third secret of Fatima and all that? What was your granny thinking of?

I'm not a fan of the AAA-PBP but if doing this pushes this issue to the front and gets FG/FF to finally run a ref then by all means they can do this every single day.
Until then FG/FF will continue to ignore it

If there was six of them taking part, they would have been better off each wearing a t-shirt with one big letter on it, and sit together on the same row.
I don't think it's appropriate for the Dail anyhow. They are paid more than enough to dress themselves with a bit of decorum.0 -

They are also hanging out in Waterford today as well it seems, (see picture below)
Their tactic seems to be to outright make up stuff (such as above) and to claim all of the media is bias, you can't have a reasoned debate with these lunatics
