And if she wanted, she could have it, normal... Im just saying she shouldnt be excommungated and crucified because she terminated a pregnancy made by a raper... (I actually saw a case in Brazil were the rapest was pardoned by the church but the girl *12 our 13 years of age* was excommungated...)
It's just a different part of the Bigger Topic (Politics xD)
How exactly was he pardoned? In Catholicism (if you mean the Catholic Church. I'm assuming you do because we're talking about Brazil) you're automatically pardoned if you genuinely ask for forgiveness. I'd be willing to pardon him too if he was honestly sorrowful for what he had done. As for the girl, I doubt even the Catholics (sorry, little inter-denominational ribbing. Holy Orthodoxy ftw! ) excommunicate a young girl without good reason.
Barry will kill it if he thinks we shouldn't have it.Originally Posted by Mak
If the girl aborted the child, yes, that's a different story. The Catholic church has a very strong stance against abortion. As does Orthodoxy, in case none of you could tell.
Mate, with all do respect... When you go to a 12 year old recently raped girl and tell her that she is obligated to keep the raper's child... Ide like you to tell me her reaction... And Im not sure it was a Catholic Church. It being Brazil doesnt mean much, because Brazil is becoming each day more protestant, at least on the poorer class
Im a Roman Catholic(I think that god made the earth billions of years ago and set it in motion not the bible word for word) but the church has no place in other peoples lives

I don't think protestants do the whole excommunication thing. It would have to depend on the denomination, I guess.
Nobody said she had to keep it, only to carry it.
I agree, the Roman church should have no place in other peoples lives.
Because Orthodoxy is the true church, of course!
Well if thats the case youre booth wrong seeing as Lutheran is the only true church the way that jesus preached to us
Why cant he make up his own mind? No need to be a zombie just because you believe in something
Please people, lets not start debating football... "My teams the best because it rocks!!"
We're hear to debate ideas, not who has the bigger stick, right?
1. No i do think god is real just not the bible word for word
2. I think the church should only do good things in peoples lives
3. on abortion i think it should just be the person pick
4. and jesus said nothing about muslims as they wont live till 600 years after he died
and what did you think i was an atheist?
ohhh and im more christian then any one here as i have been to the Vatican and Jerusalem
and mak how are the Lutheran right as thier relgion was made like 1350 years after jesus died so they really cant know "the way that jesus preached to us"

Oh, by the way, I changed the name of this thread. Politics is too narrow because, obviously, we're getting into religion.
