Oh sorry.
Hadn't seen it.
Well, is the sex itself consensual? If not, then it is rape.
If the sex is consensual, and the decision to not use contraception is consensual, then I don't know what you mean about impregnating "without consent?" Can you clarify?

The question of "how do I know I'm right" would basically be the same question as "why do I believe in Christianity," Which is all that is comes down to. This has been covered already in this thread. It is long and difficult to put into words. But Randy did a good job of it. His posts about it represent my sentiments as well.
It's very easy to put into words. You don't know. You believe.
Those aren't the same questions.
I don't feel like digging through 150 pages to find 'because bible'.
You are correct. I believe 100% though. But yes, believe nonetheless.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
