ORIGINAL: saved9201 First of all, how do we know she would have voted for Obama? Many of Hillary Clintons loyal supporters are abortion advocates and have declared they would never vote for Obama. Assuming someone who supports abortion will vote for Obama or vote at all is like assuming someone who is pro-life will automatically vote for McCain. Some may find this hard to believe, but to some people, there are other issues in this election. Secondly, this person could very well consider herself a God-fearing Christian. Has anyone ever experienced how some churches treat teens who mother or father children out of wedlock? The teens are first of all isolated from the rest of the teens, and are forbidden participate in any teen activities. Some churches have gone so far as to require parents of these kids to step down from leadership positions because this indicates they don't have their children "under subjection." In one case in a church I once attended, the teen mother was required to stand before the church and apologize for her sin (the young father didn't attend that church). Basically, all involved are forced to be subjected to church discipline, which usually turns into ostracization and humiliation the entire time they choose to attend. Most end up leaving the church rather than submit to this and one preacher I talked to had no problem with basically running these teens off, as he cited 1Cor 5:6, "Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?" So before church folk freaked out about Obama making the statement about punishing his daughter with a baby, maybe they should have checked with their own churches to see what kind of "punishment" they had is store for a teen who gets pregnant. My point is, the church sometimes talks out of both sides of their mouths on this issue. It seems as if some churches actually encourage a member facing this choice to "quietly" go the abortion route. Yes, in the end, they'll have to face God for their sin, but He's a lot easier to deal with and a lot more merciful and forgiving than some self-righteous church folks. - Julius Yet at the end of the day Mrs. Cook murdered her grandchild... As for Obama's view on abortion, he supports the cold blooded murder of unborn children and does so from a place of athourity and in the name of God... It would be better if didn't mention God given his views on other subjects as well.. John
