    Well in poor nations children equal old age security one needs sons preferably to care for the parents when they are too old to work and with issues more children die so they need to have more children to get sons to live into adulthood.

    I see women having kids in the USA and get on welfare. Don't they think theres more to life in just having kids at a young age and getting on welfare. Its like the same scenario plays itself out its like as long as they have there television and Facebook account that's all they aspire to in life. And I do not understand why people take being in prison as a badge of honor like how can you be proud of having your freedom took from you. And in certain environment s those are the ones who get the most respect

    Deuteronomy 15:7
    If there is a poor man among your brothers within any of the gates in the land that the LORD your God is giving you, you are not to harden your heart or shut your hand from your poor brother.

    When did the Bible a man fit enough to work shouldn't work, sure the infirm and the old widows and orphans are to be shown mercy and helped out, but the Biblical means of a woman and disabled people and old widows was the family was care for them or a husband and for young widows marriage

    As for poor men they were encouraged to work. The only exceptions are those who are too unfit to work, older widows with no family and orphans that was it who could count on help and the NT seemed to not change that.

    A few years ago, Geraldo Rivera did an article on the "Save the Children" charities, which claimed there were 20 million starving children in Africa we needed to save by personally subscribing to support them. They took in a huge amount of money, and provided a lot of help. Those kids grew up living off others people's generosity and charity.

    Today, they say we have 30 million starving kids. Why? Because those 20 million kids grew up had kids, and by way of their role modeling showed them that the way you survive is other people's generosity and charity. We trained them to do that.

    This is extremely rare. Your argument is then based on a "black vs white" paradigm. Sure there are idiots out there ( and quite a few of them). Punishing the many for the idiocy of a few is a violation of the rule of law - one person not to be punished for the actions of another.

    Most people having abortions (or many - it matters not) do so on the basis of an accident. In some cases it is a function of the woman "forgetting" to take the pill or missing the pill. In this case - banning abortion would punish one for the misdeeds of another.

    This is why I ask what does "some people use abortion as birth control" have to do with an argument for banning abortion ?
    This argument fails horribly. 1) while it may be dispicable - just because something is discpicabe does not mean law against this action is justified 2) Most abortions are not done on this basis so this argument does not apply at all to these people.

    This reminds me of several Catholic school girl jokes about alternative sex with Catholic school girls.

    Back in Moses' times, it was awfully difficult to become poor. You had to either have gambled your land away or else went into extreme debt and lost it. Pretty much all of the ancient Israelites had their own lands and herds and flocks.

    These are Negro babes.

    They do what they saw their momma's do.

    No thinking at all.

    These Negro babes do what they saw their momma do.

    Same as the white chicks do as they saw their mommas do.

    It is a girlie-mommy thing.

    Just different things for the Negroes and for the whites.

    Well I call them African american but yes its learned behavior but the thin about it after slavery a lot of the men would spend a huge portion of there time trying to find there families to take care of them. You had places like black wall street and intact families I wonder what happened for these things to dramatically change

    African-American … too many syllables.

    Negro works for me. It's the Latin word for Black.

    Black is too ugly a word. Much like the N-word itself.
