yeah, people always want god on their side.

it used to be that free will was considered blasphemy. that everything had been pre-ordained. well, if that was the case, then why did the criminal have to serve time, since god pre-ordained he commit the crime? how could the thief be held to blame? god had decided..
it was questions like those that helped lead to free will gradually becoming the accepted teaching. but then, i've been told by exercising my free will 'in the wrong way' i was going to hell. i told the woman who said that to me, that god was definitely a sneaky fellow. if it's free will, but there are rules about how you use it, it's not so free, is it?
at any rate, the contortions by pro-lifers to somehow still tie things into god's big plan can become rather comical at times. but then, not quite so comical when you know they are completely serious about changing everyone's rules to how they feel things should be.
and i'm sure they can show you passages in the bible to support the view that women should do as they're told. cause that's how god wants it. why else would the bible say it? (probably because men in positions of power decided what was included in the 'holy book'????).

on another note...i really wish that people would stop quoting others. perhaps you could say 'to so and so'. that way i don't have to read such drivel as 'not a date rape' from a poster i have on ignore. wtf is that supposed to mean? rape is rape is rape. i don't care if you effing know the guys name-if you say 'no', and he forces you-hello, that's a crime. it's an assault.
after all, if sandusky molested his nephew instead of a camp kid, does that lessen the crime?
