@oceanbirth Provebs 28:26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, But whoever walks wisely will be delivered.
I am not catholic, but I know I am saved 1 John 5:13 (We can know for sure we are going to heaven).
Never follow your heart as your heart will deceive you. Follow Truth. Do not make a child (9) murder, and live with that the rest of her life.

One rule that I broke was to 'obey parents'. This was instilled at home, at school and at church. When little, didn't realize all homes were not like ours and simply followed the orders.
It became important to break the rule, yet still loved my parents. Thankyou Paulo

Rules can be wonderful guidelines, yet are not fair or just in every unique situation. We also need compassion. Some decisions are not easy, but following the heart helps.

we follow our conscience. if the only reason you are not breaking the rule is fear it is the wrong reason. also, did you agree to the rules? did you sign a contract or make a promise? whose rules are they?

Just one word, when freedom is at stake in any way or form people should break the rules. When Plato was asked ''Teacher if your best friend is a criminal by the law would u help him?'' and he answered ''Friendship is above any rules...its the core of our society''

I think the rules can be broken to find the love and the pursuit of truth. Maybe??

It's not the rules which desides what heppens in a person's life. So they shohuldn't deside what is the next step. The baby will born and live but how about the life which is already here and will get destroyed by that baby. The responsibility(not Burden) will ruin the future of the girl and it would be the same way for the new baby as well. I am not in favour of the abortion but it's the situation she's in.if she'd be 18 or older that i definately would advocate the birth.

Well, that tears it--now I know that Paulo Coelho is not a Catholic. No child deserves to be murdered because they are inconvenient or a "burden" to someone else or society. There are lines that you do not cross, and to advocate the murder of a child is to cross those lines. "Warrior of Light" my ass.

I don't think rules should be followed, 'just because they are there.' One should strive to understand why the rule exists and then follow their conscience. I do not believe, however, that the rules of the Church are simply arbitrary dictates that do not take into account the needs of the human person. If the unborn is are human persons, they should be afforded the same rights as the born. If they are not human persons no excuse is required - they can be killed regardless of the circumstances.
always break any rule that doesn't feel right in your heart. all 'rules' are made by others, and noone but yourself knows what is right for yourself.

There is no such thing as a recipe for obeying rules. We can respect rules and need them because we want to have a structure in life. We always have rules - aware of it or not. Structure that we create is the way that we live in this world. We can always weigh in specific situations if the problem we face is big enough to break rules to solve it, or the rules are to important for us to break them. Simply we decide what is more important - preserving structure or making solution.
