The Sin of Abortion

[dwardwarbinx]

genocide!

wa pa jud ko kabalo unsa akong stand aning abortion bitaw ai. >.<
pro-choice man ta ko pero usahay man gud naay better alternative.
like in the cases of unplanned pregnancies, pwede man siguro ipa-adopt kaysa sa ipa-abort.
pero i dunno, i can't really judge the women na magpa-abort.

hahay.

well abortion is murder, mao na di gyud mo sugot ang church himo on ug law ang house bill nga mo sugot ug abortion... pero depende pd sa situation kay ang uban legal man especially if the pregnancy will threaten the mother or the fetus it self...

How about the Jerusalem Bible? Sword means War! As the ancient philosopher Sun Tzu said, "If you want peace, prepare for war." Conflict is inevitable no matter how peaceful you are!

well the samurai warriors would refer to a "sword" as "soul".. their sword, their soul.. maybe some of those translators have read what the ancient philo Sun Tzu has written and made their own interpretation.. possible, yes? hehe..

Yes. Sword could also mean a "soul" who is constantly at war with one's Life!

the soul is constantly at war with one's life? can you pls elaborate on what you mean by that?
my view with the soul concept by the way is that, it is life itself.. hehe..

Since man is composed of mind body and spirit or soul, man is constantly engages in war between his lower self (The Physical/ Personality and ego) and the higher self (The spiritual/ Essence/ Spirit). The challenge here is to integrate and balance the higher and lower self in order to experience peace and harmony. If we achieve this, we will become victorious in life.

BTW, I am speaking of the individual soul not only Life in general. That's why it has been said, we are our own best friend or our own worst enemy. Success and failure are within us.
