Thank you for your voice of leadership.

Marxism = Poverty, Control, Slavery

The exact thing that Wallis is trying to overcome is exactly what he is creating by his allegiance to Marxist ideology.

Dear mizzouilibertarian:

According to your own statement, you earn approximately $7,500 @ week. I have some questions for you.

Do you pay taxes? If so, you are contributing part of your wealth.

Do you employ people? How much are THEY paid? How are their lives better by working for you? Are any of them receiving food stamps?

Are you bettering the lives of orphans? Have you adopted children?

Do you participate in creating homeless shelters?

Are you generous? Are you hospitable?

what if I'm a small business owner and make about 350000 a year. and I don't want my wealth redistributed?

Is Jim Wallis A fraud?

KWMITCH: Although I stand opposed to abortion under any condition, I think it's a situation in which God himself should and can intervene. We make the mistake in thinking we can 'force' people to our ways of believing. God can make people re-think choices better than we as other humans can. He is God Almighty. On the other hand, where we can play a 'positive' role without forcing our wills upon people to change we should.

@Lochee1000 You would *hope* not, but the question is: Would you be in favor of a law that prevents a mother from killing her unborn at that point? An hour before birth? If not, your position would be as follows: I think that would be murder, but I am not for making a law against that type of murder – it should be legal to murder a child in that manner. This is untenable.

KWMITCH: I don't place as much importance on location as I do the ability of parents to receive support and counseling. I would hope no one would wait until literally moments before a birth.

@Lochee1000 By the way, you still haven’t answered my questions.  I’ll repeat them: What about an abortion one hour before birth? What if just the head is inside the mother? Because you place so much importance on *location*, let's have some answers.

[kwmitch1]

@Lochee1000 I’ve demonstrated that *choices* isn’t an argument. It’s not about *choices* - because you are against a mother’s *choice* to kill her infant or toddler. After we peeled back that layer, you resorted to the belief that a woman can do with *her body* what she pleases – the unborn life be damned. This view is no different than Planned Parenthood’s or NARAL’s. So let’s not pretend you have this nuanced compassionate view of the unborn. Just asking for some honesty, that’s all.

@Lochee1000 Here we go - the diversion to war. You have no idea about what my thoughts on war are. No idea. We are discussing abortion – let’s not get off subject. Besides, being on the left and being against abortion are not mutally exclusive. By the way, what is 'BLACK & KMITCH'?
