[If all the people that preachpro-life would just take a child home with them and give them a home like they make it sound so easy! Life would be dandy and we would not have so many unwanted children in a foster home.]
This makes my blood BOIL. I would LOVE to take a child (or several children, for that matter) home and give them a good life and so would several thousand other couples who cannot have children. The problem is, there ARE NOT "so many unwanted children" in foster homes. The majority of them have been heartlessly aborted by selfish women who have been brainwashed into believing that it is their choice to kill their own child and that there are no consequences for doing so.
Your argument literally makes me sick to my stomach.

Fucking liar, there are millions of children who need a home.
Part of me wishes your blood would literally boil but I think you mean figuratively, you illiterate bully.
I would LOVE to take a white child (or several white children, for that matter) home and give them a good life and so would several thousand other couples who cannot have children. The problem is, there ARE NOT "so many unwanted [white] children" in foster homes.
FIX'D
" I would LOVE to take a child (or several children, for that matter) home and give them a good life and so would several thousand other couples who cannot have children."
Well, why haven't you? As big baby Jesus pointed out, there are HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of children who need homes. You probably haven't even looked into it. It's just easier to say "there aren't any."
And so many couples who are unable to have children would rather spend tens of thousands of dollars trying fertility treatments than adopt.
Saying that there aren't any available needy children is a bald-faced lie. Blaming it on women who didn't want to have children is dispicable.
These children are better off never having been born, rather than be raised by a fundie.
You're also full of shit about the lack of children available for adoption.
"The problem is, there ARE NOT "so many unwanted children" in foster homes."
The problem is you are disconnected from reality. There is a shortage of foster parents. Good thing you can't find them, they have enough problems without a fundie foster parent adding to them.
Dear spbluebird,
My parents were foster parents to dozens of kids. They adopted two abuse cases even though my parents were considered too old to adopt children. The court waived the restrictions.
I suggest you shut off the bullshit and try it.
fwiw, all the kids happened to be white.
I worked in the Juvenile Court system for years and I can tell you from experience, there are more Foster kids than people willing to adopt.
Another factor is, most couples willing to adopt have preferences in gender and race of the child.
There are also safety and financial standarts that have to be met in order to adopt a child.
Well, most non-fundie people know!
What a big load of old shit. The majority of children in foster care/homes are children who are; black, Hispanic (or another racial minority), disabled or they have health problems. Most of the "good Christian Pro-"Life" people want their perfect white Christian Angel Miracle Baby(TM).
Of course, I'd sooner send my kid off to the Manson family than drop them off with these Rapture obsessed lunatics.

You see my friends, this is why we call them pro-LIARS.
Do some fucking research you asshat. >:(
The TOTAL number of legal abortions done since Roe v Wade (according to you folks) is 45 million.
The population in 1973 (source ) is listed as ~211 million.
The current population (source ) of the US is given as ~303 million. That's a growth of double what you claim to have been aborted.
I did a bit of looking and found this website. They state, according to HHS that there are 110,000 children awaiting adoption (I can only find this site).
In other words, you are a liar who would rather tell people what to do than contribute to a solution you propose.
Only one person called him on his bullshit and he didn't come back to defend it before the thread was closed.
Further down the thread Baron Nor says Killing is not against the 10 commandments, taking of innocent blood is.
LOL WHUT! Ah so that's how they justify the death penalty, war and killing animals. >:(
I know two girls who were adopted.
Both are black.
Both have cerebal palsy.
One is severely delayed, has to be tube fed and diaper changed, is blind, and all that wonderful stuff.
The other only needs diapers occasionally and is essentially fully functioning and strongly independent if not a bit sheltered.
Their adoptive parents are white and Christian. I should probably add that these adoptive parents have fostered tons of kids of all races, with disabilities of all severity. Not a day goes by that they don't think about adopting more kids.
YOU FAIL, SPBLUEBIRD.
And they aborted because they didn't see many people taking them home, circular?, yes, and let me tell you something else, you probably don't do it because of the same reasons that woman doesn't want to raise the baby.
In fact, you lie. There are kids who are aborted, ok, but there are many, many others who are not and waiting. Why?, because the story of adoption is ok when the baby is blond, healthy and a baby. That's why not many people give up for adoption.
You Fail big time. I lived in a small Canadian prairie city for 17 years. My ex wife and I looked into fostering. At any one time, in this city of 800,000 there were over 800 children 10 to 16 years old, living in hotel rooms, paid for by the government. The reason? No one wants to take them because at that age they are considered too old by couples wanting to adopt.
probably not the sort of children you want.
Probably "problem" children, many of whom will have been brought up by mothers without partners, and who just couldn't hack it. Then the child or children (already damaged) gets taken into care. And left there by the pro-life holier-than-thou fundies because they're too much work
Of course it makes you sick to your stomach. It's an idea that would require you to be part of a solution instead of part of a problem. In my experience, only the most liberal of christians can be counted on to do anything worthwhile to help another person.
It's all good, though. None of us want you raising kids anyway.
So a woman who aborts her child because she doesn't want it somehow makes that child not unwanted?
Nevermind everything else, one statement can cover it all: You are in one seriously bad case of denial here. Get checked into a clinic, 'cause the next step is anger, & I'd hate to see what all that rage could do.
Yack! Not another one! Woman, there ARE plenty of unwanted children in foster homes - open yer damned eyes!
As someone who was never adopted or fostered despite being under state care since infancy (where were the "several thousand" childless couples?) your idiocy makes MY blood boil.
@Saccharissa: my sentiments exactly!
I suggest that spbluebird contact his/her/its local department of social services. There are thousands of children in every state who need permanent homes. If money is an issue, assistance may be available (depends on the state). As the proud parent of three adopted children, I can honestly say that the rewards are well worth the effort.
Of course, I say this knowing spbluebird will do no such thing.
I'm an infertile woman and I'd love to be able to afford to adopt an infant, but I'm not so fucking selfish that I'd force someone else to go through with a pregnancy she doesn't want just to make me happy. Fuck you very much, spbluebitch!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
