npub1psdfxfpxz2cwmmnsk60y3nqpn2tqh9n24h4hstvfkwvr6eaek9js499sr7 (npub1psd…9sr7) Ohhh. This is their way of asking about abortion‽ That thought literally never entered my mind. Why do these fundies spend so much time fantasizing about abortion? Their preoccupation with one specific set of medical procedures is really bizarre. At least the Christian “Science” practitioners have the intellectual honesty to avoid all medical procedures.
So, what, they think this is some sort of “gotcha” question?
That would be like me posting:
Theists, imagine that you are on a trolley, and the driver is your devout pastor/minister/priest. Ahead you see an atheist lying on the tracks. There is enough time to stop the trolley. You shout, “Stop the trolley, there is someone on the tracks!” and your pastor says, “If it is God’s will that the person live, they will get off the tracks before we hit them. Anyone who interferes will burn in hell forever.” Then he hits the accelerator. What do you do?
Hmm. That’s actually not a bad answer to the parachuting baby question.
