    For me, though I am pro choice, I don't think this is a fucked up thread at all.
    I think it creative, bright, and sends a pretty clear message though I'm not sure
    the pro choice people want to see it, might rather make jest and avoid understanding it.

    There are many people like me who are pro choice but not pro abortion.

    This thread actually makes me think about just how pro choice I am.

    When given the choice to abort a life, within the law, not yet born
    and a child who has joined the world, I see a clear difference in the law's eyes...
    but really when you come down to it is there any difference at all?
    say in God's eyes, say in the unborn souls eyes? say in the big picture of life?

    We could not stomach as human beings babies being killed once they are here
    so why so many choose to kill before they are?

    Yeah, I'm pro-choice AND pro-abortion.

    I think every woman should have one, whether they want it or not.

    :lol::lol: Pro-abortion is a term usually coined by those that do not want to see legal abortion at any cost (definitely anti-abortion) to sort of 'demonise' the 'pro-choice' people (as are pro-death, baby killer, etc). Emotive and political agendas. Pro-choice already covers the acceptance of abortion but does not mean that one automatically has to condone it nor find it acceptable for themselves. One can be pro-choice, respecting the freedom of others (similar to free speech) but would, under no circumstances have an abortion themselves as it doesn't fit in with their beliefs/ethics, etc. But some are also confused about the whole affair - anti-abortion but if I find myself in a 'situation', would rather have something done safely... Pro-choice but to a point... but what point? I don't really think that anyone in their right mind is 'pro-abortion' but rather have an acceptance of it (like many medical interventions)

    My daughter and I were just looking at pics online of Costa Rica...
    she goes next week for the study abroad program. Sloths on the list to see and she started
    giving me a bunch of facts on them.
    She is psyched, I live vicariously through her :D

    Nailed it.

    (I don't know much about sloths except they have some badass claws and usually look like they're smiling. Probably a lethal combination :P )

    Nice warm water you can sit under, sounds like paradise.

    I do know you can turn Sloths into alcoholics, just don't ask me how i know.
  • pandorapandora Posts: 21,855
    Sloths move too slow to be dangerous, they eat herbs insects etc, their metabolisms very slow :lol:
    they can move marginally faster if they themselves are in danger.There claws are their only protection.

    They are very cute :D

    I saw 3 sloths while I was in Costa Rica.
    I was swimming in a desolate area when a local came up to me and tried to tell me there was a sloth coming down a palm tree near the beach. We watched for 45 minutes as a sloth descended to the bottom of the tree, looked us straight in the eye, still hugging the tree, and took a big old poop. Then he went back up the tree. It was magnificent. But I wondered why he didn't just poop up from the treetops and let it fall where ever.

    Pooping from high up is what they would normally do. It's hard work coming down and going back up a tree. That's why, more often than not, if the baby falls from the mother, she doesn't bother going down to pick him up (this is true... not kidding). Funny how it ties in a bit with the OP! :lol:

    I heard they poop once a week so that was magnificent...

    Though, when it comes to slow, I prefer Slow Lorises (nothing to do with sloths). They rub toxin on their young.... Don't think we're allowed to do that with ours.... (this thread is a bit ridiculous....)

    Call me names because you don't agree with me?

    A women should do whatever she wants with her body. Why should she be forced to take care of her baby? If she wants to put her baby out in the yard in the winter so she can take a nap that is her choice! It's her body. At least the baby could crawl away and maybe have a chance to live it would have a better shot than being trapped in her body when she can pay a doctor to kill it.

    I just think a parent has the right to kill their baby. They can't kill anybody just their baby. Who cares if its born or not? What is a life? If a person can't sing along to betterman then their parent can kill them.

    Lets move FORWARD people!
    What in the fuck does a born baby have to do with a woman's body??? Also, you seem to think of children as slaves. :?
    Anyway, why are you trolling? It's not a very fun thread - not sure what kind of satisfaction you're getting out of this one. :think:
