Alan Keyes on abortion and stem cell research

[Amy0869]

I found out about his Presidential campaign too late in the game BUT he is definitely in line with the Christian belief and is standing on G-Ds' words. I would DEFINITELY vote for him next Election.

[artace1987]

this guy is smart

[TheAwdbawl]

Isnt it funny if a 1 month pregnant woman gets killed the man gets charged for double homocide YET if the woman has an abortion, its not murder?

[kmcl11]

yes..it all depends on the situation...anyone who thinks a dam embryo is the equivalent to a fully developed human is a fool.

[sandroeleven]

yes its sad ...when a womans situation is not conducive (money, abuse, not emotionally stable, etc to have a child...the womans needs come first. you cannot take care of someone else when you can barely care for yourself.

[18deets18]

They are the same. Both have souls.

[sandroeleven]

prove it..

[harn51]

"Defeating our evil to conquer other evils." What is Alan Keyes fighting? The Crusades. Wouldn't surprise me!

[kmcl11]

tell me about it

[tfood1]

why do u not fight for the children of this nation, that suffer like hell ! i have yet to see pickets signs for the children who are born !!!! they are homeless, pregnant, abused, mentally ill, without family, sad and alone....where is the fight and fury for them ? this nation and its people have yet to care and provide for all of its children....so lets not focus on the unborn, when the masses of the born are suffering like hell !

[tfood1]

[tfood1]

first off, abortion should not even be a topic of discussion,you cannot tell someone what to do with their body it is a personal, private matter..focus on your body, your life..the nerve of some people !!! such hypocrits..same anti-abortion activists probably have had abortions in their lifetime..a womans right, and that will never change....put down your picket signs and help all those children who are part of the system whose mothers chose not to abort !!!! and quit focusing on the unborn !

[oehieze]

*sniff* *sniff* If only his republican "MASSAS" would've respected alan's intelligence and supported him for office..

oh, I'm all choked up :(

[AndJusticeForMe]

Beautifully stated.

[tfood1]

yeah right! you guyz would be the first to bitch ! abortion is a private matter and no one elses business.... i know your type.... claiming pro-life but you are

ANTIABORTION...PRO-WAR, PRO-CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

[sandroeleven]

well said tfood

[tfood1]

all those who r against abortion....r u willing to pay higher taxes to suppport all these children that will be part of the system...will u adopt these kids, and help support programs 4 these single mothers, rape victims, and teen moms.....DOUBT IT !

[ProLife7777777]

Yes, since my tax payer dollars go into funding this evil know as abortion, I would gladly pay higher taxes if it ment abortion gets outlawed

[unholyd]

Yes i would paid for higher taxes to support all these children. Like the other guy said, my tax dollars go into funing this evil abortion. You are self-center about yourself. I am not...I belive in life not death..

[kmcl11]

liars

[mwb2050]

It's always funny to hear self-proclaimed pro-lifers bitching about their tax dollars going to gov't programs like WIC. Ironic, huh?

And best of all, so many of them feel it's "ok" to abort "rape babies" - a blatant contradiction in ideology. For these folks, the focus clearly isn't on preserving life so much as determining "life's worth" based on HOW a human was conceived.

I may totally disagree with "TRUE" prolifers, but hey... at LEAST they're consistent, unlike those other goofs.

[bfbjr]

Well let's see..Obama lifted the ban on the US sending taxpayer's money to foreign countries' institutions that perform abortions. I would rather see my tax dollars protect the unborn than have it support abortions.

[ClumsyRoot]

"Abortuary"? LOL! Great term!

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Who gets to decide what a JUST act is?

Why not start "before conception", why not make it illegal to masterbate? That's destroying, HALF a baby, right? Why not throw women in jail for menstrating? I say, if you're wearing a rubber, that's MURDER! It's at least a sin, you know casting your seed upon a stone and all.

Let's agree, to keep the church, out of our Gov., and ALL will be fine. LOL

P.S. You'll go blind.

[siie55]

I'm gonna have to agree with Keyes on this.

[MyLegendarySelf]

So how did this guy not become president while Obama did?!

[bdriz16]

Exactly! We need to keep electing brainwashed fundamentalist christians who have their fingers on the button listening to "God" asking him "Where do I invade next Lord" GIVE ME A SIGN!".

Great idea.

[MyLegendarySelf]

"We need to keep electing brainwashed fundamentalist christians who have their fingers on the button listening to "God" asking him"

How irrelevant. This guy is a Catholic Christian, not a fundamentalist "button-pusher," or whatever that is.

Next time make sure your brain is in the on position before you attempt to think.

[BeantownJim]

funny how we forget that the truths given us arent miracles anymore just our own intelects dispersed on whatevers popular

[rhettrongun]

His problem is that he seems to view life as precious because it is "God's creation". This is misguided of course. Life is precious because of the potential that it has. I can kill a cockroach(pest) with no remorse, because its future is worthless. Killing a baby is a different story. With a good upbringing that baby could grow up to be an amazing individual capable of zounds of different things. Of course, using an embryo that otherwise has no future for medical benefits is different.

[GodIsReal101]

how to become a christian

Godisreal101

[sandroeleven]

How to remain a retard...listen to keyes. The god he speaks of so anti-life its hilarious.

[evb4mvp]

your an idiot go and read i scientific journal on evolution, oh yeah your probobly illiterate.

[CBGB42]

Also, no need to get explicit. Remember, Jesus is watching you.

[CBGB42]

FYI, I was being sarcastic.

[CBGB42]

Macroevolution is simply a lot of microevolution. You can't accept one without the other.

[CBGB42]

You don't need to not believe in God to understand evolution.

Do you know what microevolution is?

[CBGB42]

Guess what? There are.

[CBGB42]

Math is a science. But math can be proven for certain.

For example, we know for a fact that 2+2 is four.

But we technically aren't entirely sure how gravity works. Does that make gravity any less true? No.

[saviour1987]

does obvious signs of Intelligent Design make it any less true? No. U can look at writing in the sand on the beach and know its from man, why? because its ID. The same with science. God has said "You are all without excuse because i have made my existance OBVIOUS to you" If u believe in Evolution thats ur downfall, no matter how much proof or evidence given u will simply dismiss it because ur mind has already concluded that its all false and will be explained away (with some ridiculous theories)

[CBGB42]

The same can be said for you. You will take any situation and try to twist it around and try to explain it with Creationism.

You can't test Creationism, but we can test genes. We have found that humans and chimpanzees have a two percent difference in their DNA.

And let's say that creationism is true. Why would that happen? And why would there be a fossil record, even one that you claim that shows no evidence of evolution?

[sushibagel4444]

???>Chemicals>Chemicals form together>Big Bang..... wait so wat came first? u do realise u need a creator no matter wat.... something is not simply built without a builder. And if u think single cell organisms are simple enough to be evolved into think again... even they are complex enough to find intelligent Design.

[sandroeleven]

tell them cb..they think an invisible man in the sky got em here.haha

[CBGB42]

Con.

slightly longer neck. And I mean slightly. maybe an inch. But, because they're taller, they can reach more leaves of trees than the other giraffes, thus making them stronger, thus making them more likely to reproduce. Repeat this over about a million years, and you get the giraffe we have today.

[saviour1987]

mate science is about facts, and there is no scientific eveidence 2 support what u are saying or the evolution theory. ill make it clear it's NOT a FACT. Creationists have all the proof we need yet evolutionists have nothing but a theory that gets worse as u get deeper into it. You cant even use evolution to explain the points i made. Explain the rate of erosion with our time frame, explain metamorphasis, explain the age of the moon, explain who made the laws of gravity, inertia etc. U cant.

[CBGB42]

... you expect me to explain things that have nothing to do with evolution... with evolution.

Right.

[evb4mvp]

you expect us to believe the idiocy and dishonesty a creationism?

[CBGB42]

He's pretty much saying that God will keep us from winning the war in Iraq if we keep aborting babies. Yeah. That makes sense. If you believe that, I have a few stories that you might like. Such as the three little pigs.

[carlindelco]

Yeah, Alan keys is great!! It speaks about accountability,respect and decency, something the liberals hate...

[foldedintobeauty2]

maybe it's not abortion that's the evil. maybe it is what man makes. maybe it's a repercussion for all of the things man makes. don't blame it on women, blame it on society/"man".

just rambling.

[PheonixHeart1974]

Don't men play a role in abortion? Don't men claim respect for women for "allowing" abortion? Please. Keys addressed one of many evils in our society. People get their feelings hurt by him because he speaks truth and in actuality it is the truth he speaks that hurts not him.

Not rambling, but speaking truth.

[foldedintobeauty2]

*I* was just rambling. I didn't get my feelings hurt by him. I am for choice.

[SuperDude2569]

ALL MEN (MANKIND) ARE EQUAL!! We're getting close at this but we're still not there!!!

[1peter315]

I love this guy. He is crazy but his logic is sound!

[divine137]

what the liberal pro-gay movement is deceiving the public in is that the issue isn't "stem-cell" research, but "embryonic" stem-cell research. they deceptively interchange 2 completely apples and oranges topics to mislead the hearer. wow!

[2connection]

modern day liberalism is truly a demented Mental disorder made up of Primarily Freaks, Frauds, Hatefilled Loons and Angry Hysterical Fanatical Hypocrites !

Liberals are some of the most hatefull, Vile, ill speaking , Hypocritical People we have in our Politics.

A great example is Rev. Wright, Baracks close dear personal mentor, friend and Minister for 20 yrs

[carlindelco]

That's right, great comment!!

[2connection]

thanks, i voted for CHUCK BALDWIN nominee of the constitution Party, if Chuck wasnt runnin' i would have surely voted for Alan

John Mccain is an Internationalist moderate liberal, he is NOT a true conservative

[hydrolito]

Opnion based on what information I have researched. Abortion is a plan to wipe out blacks and maybe even particular tribes of blacks. Farakan wants us to believe Jews are black so if you are a different tribe of blacks you are targeted for destruction.

[vote4ALANKEYES]

1 honest principled Vote for a Genuine Brilliant Statesman like KEYES is worth far more in terms of truly changing this Country for the better, than 1,000 votes for a Total Liberal Fraud like Mccain.

No more lesser of 2 evils Nonsense ! its time for real change, If you admire this Mans Mssg. go on his website and help out with the effort to get him on the Ballot to let All Americans know they do indeed have a Another choice

ALAN KEYES FOR PRES

[brooksgeo2]

alan keyes is one of the smartest men i have ever seen speak,,

[MccainsaLIBERAL]

Go on his website and Help this effort ! Anything is possible with a grassroots Effort. he needs our time, energy and Money to Let Our country know we DO indeed have another choice !

Mccain and Obama are Frauds. We all need to now step up to the plate and put our Money and time where our Mouths are.

SUPPORT ALAN KEYES 08 the independent Candidate for Truth, Justice and the American way

[mindor100]

fetus=child..i think not

[threerisingsuns]

A baby has a heart beat at just 18 days, feet at just 4 weeks, fingers at 7 weeks, and brainwaves at 6 weeks. So don't tell me that its just a blob of tissue, or a blastocyst. That's the most blatant lie being progated today.

[CBGB42]

Before all of that, it is a blastocyst.

[PheonixHeart1974]

nope. all of the DNA of that baby is encoded only 2 hrs after conception. So the human being has started its formation (being human) the minute the sperm enters the egg.

[CBGB42]

what makes life sacred? We have no qualms about killing flies or most other animals, so it's just human life. And humans aren't much more than animals; if it weren't for the fact we can reason, we wouldn't be anything more than primates. so what makes people so special? I'll answer my own question to make a point. When we're independent organisms, we're sentient beings. And destroying the body and mind of a sentient being impacts society in a negative way. Prove to me that fetuses can reason.

[saviour1987]

Looking at what you have said your clearly a Evolutionist (a theory masquerading as science) Now if you choose to believe in evolution this is wat it teaches..... You are an accident.... Your Life, has NO value, You came from Scum and you dont have a purpose. Your just here because you are... Ill stick with God thanks who is proven by science and put us here as individuals with value and purpose and loves us all.

[CBGB42]

I didn't come from scum. I came from my parents, who came from their parents, and so on. Eventually going all the way back to the first few Homo Sapiens, and then their ancestors, and the ancestors of them, and the ancestors of them, eventually going back to the simplest forms of life. What you call scum. And this theory, yes a theory, because that's as high as you can get in science without going into math, makes sense because of the evidence.

[saviour1987]

Actually science is about Facts... Facts leave no room for possibilities watsoever. a "theory" is not a fact. As for Evolution yes you did originate from pond scum which then evolved into everything else which is a load of crap! I have studied it deeply and there are so many faults and holes because it's false. In FACT Science supports Christianity, another FACT is that there is no EVIDENCE or PROOF of evolution, yet they teach it because the only alternative is a spiritual one.

[CBGB42]

Because, obviously, I'm just so stupid, could you name those problems in evolution? And, again sorry, science just goes way over my head, could you explain how science explains the beliefs of Christianity, let alone any religion?

[saviour1987]

The problem with evolution is this, its a theory being taught as a fact. I'll touch briefly on some points. Over millions perhaps billions of years life formed and evolved into everything we have today. Why is it that with all these millions of years that not ONE transitional form of ANY sort has been found? Scientists claim to know everything about the "missing link" except for the fact that it is missing. Using science you can see through erosion, speciation and formation is all proof of God.

[CBGB42]

When you say transitional forms, do you mean like, from a cat to a dog? You're not going to find stuff like that, because it didn't happen like that. Evolution is slow. It takes a very long time, like you said, over millions of years. Huge changes like that don't happen overnight. Let's use the giraffe as an example. It evolved from a kind of gazelle. Some members of this species of gazelle were subject to intense drought, so only the hardiest plants survived. Let's say some gazelles have a...

[saviour1987]

evolution says we all came from a single celled organism that evolved into everything we now have today. So yes at some point the cat would have to go to dog or vice versa. N yes over millions of years, meaning there should be billions of fossil deposits of these transitional creatures but not ONE has been found. thus called the "missing link" Also, how does Evolution explain the metamorphasis of a butterfly? it CANT. As for the giraffe it's speciation Its had Adaptations within the same species

[CBGB42]

No, the cat would never have to go to the dog. They both shared a common ancestor. They both come from the Cynofelidae family.

[sushibagel4444]

irreducable complexity something that cannot exist without a single vital part... so how was it evolved into?

[CBGB42]

Please, just let it die. I don't even care anymore.

Just... gah. What does this even have to do with the video? It's about ABORTION, not evolution.

[threerisingsuns]

A baby has a heart beat at just 18 days, feet at just 4 weeks, fingers at 7 weeks, and brainwaves at 6 weeks. So don't tell me that its just a blob of tissue, or a blastocyst. That's the most blatant lie being progated today.

[chukmaty]

Alan Keyes is the BEST...

[kmcl11]

No he's not. He never says what should happen to women who abort or how to force women to keep pregnancies they dont want. He speaks well and is quite idealistic but has no solution.

[Goldenmean87]

Think about it people. They are currently using dead phetus' "left over" from abortions, so hey its not a waste right. But if they do find a cure with it, then it will be on demand. Where then will the vast amount of stem cells come from to support this demand for the medicine? Well that will lead to HARVESTING aborted babies to save the sick who have at least had a shot at life already. It will only lead to a sick spiral downwards.

[StraightEdgeUK]

Keep religion out of issues with morality. Stem-Cell Research has so much potential but some are opposing it because they apparently think a blastocyst made up of 150 cells (there are 100,000 cells in the brain of a fly, just for comparison) is worth more than the lives of thousands of people with incurable diseases.

The blastocyst has no nerves and no brain. And don't even try and use the "soul" as an arguement.

[faithnaction]

That is the truth. I beleive a person should have rights AFTER they are born
