@sag1015 Going to Catholic school doesn't really say much because they're kind of notorious for their bad catechisis, but I'm actually curious to know what went on in the pro life club you were in because what you've claimed so far about the moment as a whole is wrong and I wonder how much the club got wrong, too
As for abortion, it's never required because any case where a pregnancy is dangerous for the mother the solution is birth, and it should never be a choice because every abortion always kills a human being, which no one should be able to make a decision on because human beings have inherent value and their lives shouldn't be taken away just because some people don't care about them. You're not against abortion if you support it for any reason, that's not what "against" means

Just a reminder that Jesus did ALL the cute baby stuff, like snuggling down into Mary’s shoulder when He was tired, giggling, chewing on His feet, probably sucking His thumb, laughing when St. Joseph tossed Him in the air, and calling Mary “Mama.”

Listening to music and
Brother: "change it to something good please"
Me: "like what?"
Brother: "I don't know, anything other than Tim McGraw"
Me: "Halloween music?"
Brother: "no"
Me: "Phantom of the Opera?"
Brother: "no"
Me: "Hamilton?"
Brother: "no! I have been forced to listen to that so much the only safe place away from it is outside"
Me: "but it's so good!"
Brother: "no it's not! The stuff that calms you down drives me crazy!"
Me: "okay what about 2010s mix? Oh? Guns and Ships is on here"
Brother: "gun ships?"
Me: "Guns and Ships"
Brother: "what's that?"
Me: "you know it"
Brother: "no I don't"
Me: *starts singing* "guns and ships, and so the balance shifts-"
Brother: "nooooo"
Me: "we rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts-"
Brother: "NOOOOOOOOOO"

Please pray for the mom and kid that just stopped by to try and sell us a vacuum, I saw her take a sip of something from a flask in the car that she looked like she was trying and failing to hide

Satan is weak. He can't create anything only manipulate what's already there which is done primarily through, bargaining, tempting, and politely trying to rationalize poor behavior to you.
The worst part is, you'll receive many things you want and then soon realize it's not enough and you want more.

i think we should remind musicians they can absolutely make up little stories for their songs btw. it doesn’t have to be about them at all. you can invent a guy and put him in situations to music. time honoured tradition in fact.

"Be strong and of good courage; be not affrighted, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest." Joshua 1:9
I think this is now one of my most favorite lines from the Bible.

100% transparent. I need prayers. I’m extremely suicidal rn. I don’t want to be here anymore. I’m sick of the pain, seizures and fear of the future. I’m sick of this world.

So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)
Reblog to increase sample size!

Sharlot M. Hall at the Grand Canyon, 1911. Image hand-colored.
I'm not unwomanly —don't you dare think so— but God meant woman to joy in His great, clean, beautiful world — and I thank Him that He lets me see some of it not through a window pane.
Sharlot Hall, in a letter addressed to Matt Riordan, dated September 10th, 1910.
Sharlot did not regard herself solely as a poet, or even as the journalist which she later became. She had a deep affection for the Southwest, an affection which led her not only to describe its natural features in vivid detail, but to want to preserve what she clearly perceived by the turn of the century to be its vanishing heritage. A pioneer in recognizing the need to record the ways of earlier generations, she collected Arizona artifacts, early documents, and oral histories. She tracked down pioneer Arizona miners, cattlemen, sheepherders, and prospectors, no matter how many miles she had to drive, alone or with a guide, over roads that were often only dim trails in the desert. Narrow-minded neighbors regarded this activity with scandalized horror. When the Territory of Arizona made the business of collecting Arizona history official, Sharlot saw no reason why sex should make a difference in the choice of the appointee. And after a sharp battle, with the help of influential friends of both sexes, Sharlot became Territorial Historian, the first woman to hold office in Arizona. The trail she broke in gaining this official appointment made it easier for other women, some of them her friends, to follow even into elective offices after Arizona became a state in 1912.
- Margaret Maxwell (A Passion for Freedom: The Life of Sharlot Hall, pages 1-2)

How does one be pro-life and an unbeliever?
As a believer I don't really feel comfortable giving a definitive answer, but I highly recommend checking out Secular Pro Life, they're an organization specifically for atheists and they have a lot of wonderful resources for unbelievers

"We see you!!!" @sag1015 says while clearly having no idea what the pro life movement does or believes. It would've taken you less time to idk, maybe ask what we believe and how we help women and their families during crisis pregnancies
And in case you were wondering "drop out of the chute" is a disrespectful and dehumanizing way to describe birth
