Your opinion of "The only reason for banning abortion is to force women to bear ongoing generations of tithers" is without grounds.

The bible tells us (believers) that we are to tithe 10% of our earnings. The Lord uses this to support the church, missions, people in need including the hungry, etc. The bible also tells us to give to Ceasar (our government). The Federal Government takes far more than 10%, and is always hungry for more. And by the way, it supports abortion! The government will have ongoing generations of abortions without the tithers assistance or support!

Despite the offensive nature of aura dawn veirs, I remain adamantly anti-abortion. Not necessarily pro-life, I say, but still anti-abortion. I can't say euthanasia is as admirable as the Youth in Asia, but most "left-wing ultra-liberal nut jobs" obviously know more than I do.

Despite aura dawn's tendency to reject the notion of God given spirit of life, I have tremendous respect for her. In point of fact, without respect for aura dawn and her purported self-perception of the importance of her own existence, I would be robbed of the great joy of reading her blathering comments laced with sheer stupidity!

"The money question of abortion"--the dollar value of the tithe as tied to abortion--Let's hear that from Catholic officials. The only reason for banning abortion is to force women to bear ongoing generations of tithers. Granted, the Vatican, an alien kingdom, is unconstitutionally subsidized by US taxes, but it wants more church income to invest in every part of the military-industrial complex. Ike, with his Catholic lover, K. S., warned about that bloc of investors. Pillow talk? The Vatican must be taken out of the loop in everything the USA does. It is a parasitic leftover from before 1776 .

ComPassion, You make a lot of sense. I'm glad I logged in here and realized an opportunity to read your comments. They truly did bring me a sense of peace.

Hitler's actions were not of any religious group from God. Sin is not from God. Hitlers action were not love and therefore not of God. What Hitler did was not love for God or his neighbor. Hitler was spreading hate and therefore was against God.

The rumours of Adolph Hitler's Jewish ancestry (Frankenberger) centre on the paternity of his father, Alois Hitler.

The stories that Hitler's paternal grandfather was Jewish first appeared in Paris before the Second World War. Hitler's cousin had tried to borrow money from him to finance his gambling habit and had been rejected. In revenge he broke the story to the media.

As the story was now in the public domain, Hitler's SS instituted an investigation of these rumours and declared them to be false and without any foundation whatsoever (as was really to be expected).

Morgan,

You make some very good points ("two wrongs don't make a right" + "Gross is gross").

The truth is that what Hitler and his people did was neither Christian nor Catholic. What he did was to spread hate. What he did went against all the examples of Jesus. It is simple, what he did was NOT to Love God and Love Your Neighbor as yourself. He told us that the greatest commandment was to Love God and Love our neighbor as ourself. Jesus came to testify to the truth. That is why the truth is so important.

The world is a good place filled with many loving people who want to cause no harm to others. There is also hate in the world that can not be ignored. Seeking the truth sometimes turns up many things that shake a person but the truth should be shared (love or hate). Hilter and the truth about what he was doing is a good example of hate. That hate needed to be exposed. As soon as the hate was exposed to the turth, the world stopped the hate. When hate is exposed (telling truth even when it is ugly), people will stand up for what is right. When hate is hidden then it will grow. Expose hate to the light of truth. Love overcomes hate and history proves it.

My daughter is also 20 years old this year. She is my oldest child. I continue to remind her that love will overcome hate and it takes many people to stand up and tell the truth.

Continue to seek the truth, speak the truth, share the truth, and encourage others to speak the truth. Ask them if it is the truth or an opinion. Ask for the facts and research the data.

Take your talents and each day help make the world a better place.

Please take the love in your heart and make a difference in the world. Expose the hate to the light of truth. Share the love of the world to brighten the world. It only took one person in many cases to make a tremendous changes in the world. Have faith that you can help make the world a better place.

God Bless You And Your Family
