Freefall....I spent last night in turmoil wondering how one can work wonders in a sea of difference. I woke with the
realization that I can do nothing. I can only speak my mind and toss seeds to the ground and hope some sprout and
grow some roots. It is not my job to convict and change minds but His.
Simply put, we will never agree on what moment life truly begins. That is the ENTIRE turning point of the whole debate.
Most people here feel that it is just a blob of cells and it doesn't matter. In my mind and the mind of others in my faith,
it is life at the start and we just want to take up for it as any other person needing help here. Whether it's a little boy
in Thailand, a little girl in Sudan, a homeless man living in a refrigerator box or a unborn human...I am to do all I can to
give each of those people a chance. Sure words are cheap....deeds show your fruit. I didn't always do what I should have
but I am changing and am helping one person at a time, no matter how little the help is.
One last thing Freefall. I have to raise one point on your comment
