How can you possibly compare what amounts to post sex birth control (where the parent(s) decide whether to be bothered with raising a child or not) To any of the love, knowledge, (of what this child will amount to/how he will be affected) or forethought God would put in before He call a child home?(February 23, 2016 at 6:40 pm)Old Baby Wrote: Because he allowed the child be abused and die from his injuries. It's hard for me to believe that I once subscribed to this same twisted thought process. You will rationalize anything to let God off the hook, even suggesting that allowing a child to be tortured is a justifiable and moral means to "call him home". Why couldn't your omnipotent God have "called the child home" before he had to suffer the abuse? You telling me that God can't do that, or just that he won't?
These are the same people who are against abortion despite believing in ensoulment at conception and the innocent being allowed into heaven, no question. Apparently a life of abuse, abject poverty, disease, severe mental or physical handicap, etc... after which they are "called home" is better than getting the call immediately. Sick, sick thinking.
Are you so detached from compassion for either the aborted baby or the beaten child that you can only see infant death, and not the planning or forethought that went into said deaths? Where is your empathy? or does empathy get a pass here because we are discussing something you personally have been brainwashed to feel no empathy for..
