"I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul." 1 Peter 2:11
This is my podium, my practice ground for learning what to say & how to say it. I have opinions & stories. To say it simply, thats what this is about.
I do a lot of things, have a lot of dreams & have a lot to say. I'm not always right but I'm young & learning so I don't need to be, these my opinions & observations.
Enjoy!

Worth your time
A class mate recommended this to me, and it's definitely worth a half hour.
I'm not going to say it's not manipulative, but do you think it's inaccurate? This nation and our generation has had abortion so openly preached as okay that an extreme parallel may be the only way for the point to get across that it's not.
it seems a little manipulative to me because it plays on peoples emotions, and seems to trap them so that they can only give one answer. I also don't like how it seems to turn into a political campaign
I see that. But it is a personal thing, especially for woman from what I've heard over the years. The intent of the interviewer is to convince and persuade so yeah put another way they do get trapped. Does that make the parallel any less valid? Abortion is a political hot button topic so that also makes sense.
I to not live in the States, so I do not fully understand the connection between politics and abortion, but to me it seemed like he switched from trying to make followers of Jesus to followers of a certain political party.
just a thought. Do you think that this is manipulative? Is it right to manipulate people to save lives?
