Yep.

That's one of the things I've always thought was cool about Catholicism (with transubstantiation being the other one - spiritual cannibalism! How cool is that?!).  At least you know where you stand.

Like I said, I think that there's a special kind of hell for people who torture, rape, beat and kill little children. 

Actually I don't have much belief in Christianty at all.  Pretty much none, in fact.  I also don't believe in the Christian god, so it really doesn't matter to me what it wants. 

I don't see how you can say that the death of a child is a 'percieved' injustice; to me there's no perception to it.  It's an injustice, plain and simple.  I also am not talking about vigilante justice, about punishing a criminal above and beyond what the law deems just.  I'm talking about there being a place for these people after death; about death not being the end for them. 

I think it's incredibly easy to talk about living and letting live when it's not your child or your kin that's been murdered or molested.  It's a whole different ball of wax when it IS your kid or your kin. 

Who said anything about jumping to conclusions?  These men have been tried, convicted, had their appeals heard and in some cases, retried and re-convicted.  There isn't any jumping to conclusions going on.  There aren't any mistakes being made. 

You might be surprised, but I get what you're saying.

First of all, I don't believe you.  If your girlfriend and your unborn child were being abused by her father like that, why didn't you a) call the police or get her the fuck out of there?  That's what most other people would have done.  That's what I would have done, anyway, and if I would have done it then I think a lot of other people would have done it too.   As for the chemo part of your tale of woe, well, what you said makes no sense at all.  There aren't many things I'm knowledgeable about, but the law and medicine are two things I know more about than the average person.   Chemotherapy isn't given during the first trimester of pregnancy, and whether it's given during ANY trimester depends on the type of cancer the patient is being treated for. What you said about the filtering and there being less regular blood just makes no sense whatsoever. It's not possible to filter chemo out of someone's blood to avoid it being passed on to a fetus - and what you mean by 'regular' blood I have no idea and to be honest I don't wish to know.  In the future, if you're going to lie, at least make them good lies, please, not ones that anyone with half a brain and access to Google can disprove in a matter of seconds.

I DO know that you're being insufferably sanctimonious and that I'm not going to tolerate either that OR blatantly obvious lies.

You're wanting to do my physical harm now?  That's nice.  I believe that's against the TOS, but I'm not sure.  I'll forward it to Karma or to Zoomba and ask them. 

OOoh here we go!  The last person who got caught in a lie here tried to change their story after they got caught too.  What you told me here in this response, is more than a little different than what you said before.  By the way LOTS of women get anemic when they're pregnant, and not all of them have abortions.  Chemo doesn't stay in your body for 5 years after the fact either.  The only reason physicians tell women to not get pregnant for 2 years after they've had chemo is because that's the time that cancer is most likely to reappear.  But you've covered your ass on that one by telling me that she told you that her doctor told her all this. And what about the dad that punched her in the stomach, huh?  What happened to that? 

What kind of a person would take a personal tragedy and use it against them, you ask?  Well, what kind of a person would fabricate tragic events to garner attention?  I know of a few.  One of them used to blog here; she even told us that her friend's baby was desperately ill in the hospital and might die.  My bullshit-o-meter was buzzing like mad over her just like it was buzzing like mad over you.

Hate me if you want to, I really don't care.  Think I'm a horrible person if you want to, I really don't care.  The people I give a fuck about know the truth, they know who I am and what I'm about.  You're nothing to me, so I don't give a rats behind what you think.

Ach, not everyone is going to like me and I'm cool with that.

I'm glad that you understand my anger.  I'd just had enough of being pretty much told that I'm wrong for wanting people who beat babies to death to suffer for their crimes - not that I wouldn't have told him I didn't believe his stories had I not been angry; I'd have told him that regardless.  I just didn't need to hear 'you're wrong and I'm SOOOO much better than you are and here's why'.  I don't think anyone needs to hear that.

So I've got someone else who doesn't like me.  Big fekkin' deal.

Thank you for stopping by and lending me your ear and your support DG.
