Creepiest Christian comment yet
Posted on: May 18, 2010 7:53 PM, by PZ Myers

I don't know what to say. This is a Christian's idea of an argument against abortion — not just exaggerating abortion into murder, but also by trivializing rape.

Atheists always use rape as an argument for justifying killing because they want to justify abortion. But is rape really that bad? It's a horrible experience but you get over it with time. If you use it to justify murder you're never going to get over it. Imagine you have a painful divorce. Would you murder your children after because they remind you of your ex husband? Of course not. I think any woman would easily tell you that a painful divorce is worse than rape but it's not an excuse to kill your baby, so why is rape?

Christian women can also take a lot more than atheist women. Maybe this is part of the reason that atheists get so hung up about this. Christian women can turn to Christ or worship God in their hearts and endure great suffering. I'm not belittling it but think about it, no amount of suffering from rape is as great as the suffering our Lord suffered on the cross for our sins. You are the one who has to ask more true Christian women about this. You're out of touch and trying to make a big deal out of something just for shock value.

This is the kind of person you don't argue with…just walk away.

That's pretty amazing she feels that way. I'm sure she didn't vocalize much during his terms, I would guess, because she has the traditional "stand by your man" attitude. I don't see her as someone who would undermine her husband, ya know? I'm still happy to see her make it public now.

You might like to check-out this discussion in Green Atheists:

My Mother's Day Gift to the Planet: Not Having Kids

Like me, many women could discover that a child-free life offers meaningful experiences that balance the loss of mothering, and theirs could be a great gift to a beleaguered planet.
