However, I worry about the welfare of any sons he may have.'

This is the best compliment you have paid me. If only it was half true. And don't worry about my sons. The sacrifice provided by God was enough to cover their sins as well as yours.

Your ignorance knows no bounds. Don't you realise that most abortions in Australia are for convenience not because their is not enough money to go around. Check out the adoption queues. If selling my computer would save one life I would be more than happy to do so.

Keith - when christians publically and definitively disavow the old testament and everything it stands for, you might have an argument. But pick up any bible, and there it is, in all its genocidal, spiteful and repugnant reality. It is a cold, harsh, nasty book. But christians still stand by it. That is a problem for christians to sort out. Both the old and new testaments are the product of ignorant and credulous times, although certainly they have different messages and tones. However, there is still some crazy stuff in the new testament as well. Seen Revelations recently?

Quick, runner - sell your computer and donate the proceeds to Oxfam!

I'm sure the cash would be enough to provide food for some starving kid somewhere for a while, and the rest of us would have the added benefit of not reading the drivel you post here.

Interesting post David.

While not Abrahamic in religious belief it seems I do believe there is considerable merit in the 10 Commandments.

Nice and simple .

I often wonder if the war mongers in the Christian, Jewish and Muslim Faiths really believe they are going to heaven.

Logic makes me doubt it .

Err Runner, your fanaticism seemingly knows no limits!

It is up to women to decide, how many children that they
can afford to feed, clothe and raise. You don't know each of
their personal circumstances, so cannot judge.

I know of no 80'000 new couples a year in Australia, applying to
adopt a baby. We saw what happened last time, ie. they landed up
in Catholic orphanages, ligned up for abuse by the Catholic clery.

As CJ correctly points out, every Dollar donated to Oxfam will
feed another starving mouth, so please practise what you preach.

The house, the car and the furniture, they all clearly have no
value, compared to those starving babies. Start selling Runner,
don't just preach empty rhetoric on OLO, for there are hungry
mouths waiting for your donation. Just ask Oxfam.

By the way Runner, it is not over for you yet, lol.

When that so called "evil" Obama regime changed the
rules on embryo research, the truth came out on
CNN.

It seems that something like 600'000 eight cell
embryos are in frozen storage in the US. Unless
they are used for research, it seems that eventually
most of them will be dumped.

The religious right over there, started a campaign
to "adopt an embryo" and you have made it clear in the
past, that you think that 8 cell embryos are "unborn
children".

Sadly, when reality hit, only around 70 embryos a
year have been adopted, despite all the religious
rhetoric.

Now rather then letting all these 600'000 "unborn
children" die, you really need to save them. To
put it bluntly, if your wife's womb is not occupied,
could she handle a couple of batches of sextuplets
in a a row?

Clearly you would have no trouble in feeding and raising
them all.

Your destiny awaits Runner. Save them all!
