To add to the hilarity - this guy applied and was accepted to the Reformed Theological Seminary's Atlanta campus for a Master's in Biblical Studies in 2014...and my family wonders why I write off all religion.

Snipy's take on this Eric Erickson motherfucker are identical to my own. Except I just have to look at him and I can smell the guy.

If only there were other civilized Western nations to look to for examples of how it can be done! Pity there aren't any at all.

"Abortionist" is indeed a common word in English. I have been hearing it for over 40 years, dating back to the pro-abortion legalization but pre-RTL movement days during the heyday of the Second Wave feminist movement*. (Remember those 15 or so minutes? Good times, man, good times.) Erick, Son of Erick is using it correctly there.

___________________________________________________________________* Back when abortion providers and abortion clinics openly advertised their services in the newspaper and on the radio, like a common Exxon. And there were no escort teams, bulletproof windows or Jersey barriers, because none of that was needed. Incredible but true.

"We should all be thankful the pro-life movement respects the rule of law even when the lawmakers and media do not respect them."

And this is his response to a pro-lifer shooting up a health clinic, killing 3 and wounding a bunch more? Talk about tone-deaf and out of touch with reality. And the lawmakers don`t respect the law? I can`t even, nope, not even a little.

Back in the day when the evangelical crowd were actually pro choice by a majority? Seems like a fever dream now.

My own crazy relatives are bad enough, but today I am arguing about the need for sensible gun regulation with my FB friend's crazy relatives.

Also - I hope they are "good guys with guns" as they live within driving distance.
