Great news!

PB: ‘How could this have happened??? How could she
have broken free of her conditioning? RAGSDALE!!!’

KR: ‘Yes, master?’

PB: ‘Parishioner 2041-XYZ has run amok. She must be
captured and quarantined before she infects
others! Then we must analyze her brain to find out
how she could have overcome a lifetime of
liberal Episcopal catechesis. I thought you said
this couldn’t happen! You’d better not fail me
again!’

KR: ‘I’m sorry master. I…I promise you that by the
time I’m done with her, she will believe that
abortion is a wonderful blessing. A gift from the
Goddess.’

Reminded me of
Carol Everett’s story.

Alleluia!

Nice header and set-up line, sirrah Christopher.

Carol Everett or Norma McCorvey:

A disconnect within the story I saw was the mention of Planned Parenthood as “non-profit” while Abby Johnson said that “the money was in abortion”. I think there is much more truth in her observation than in the idea that PP puts forward that it is non-profit. I’m sure many of them are ideologically committed, but when your business advocates murdering babies and money can be made there is very little spiritual integrity to resist the natural pull of greed.

I look forward to hearing more from her as she emerges further out of the oppressive depths of that organization and takes greater stock of what was going on.

Abortion brutalizes both infant and mother.

If anyone doubts this, go to Silent No More website and hear woman after woman describe the bitter fruits of abortion and how her life was devastated by abortion.

May God bless her!

God bless, indeed!

Nezt step: getting out of the TEO and maybe swimming the Tiber…

Dave,
What she has already done is enough. She has repented of her sin and turned to face Christ. Perhaps she will leave TEO, but even if she doesn’t, I think He’s okay with it.

Perhaps she will leave TEO, but even if she doesn’t, I think He’s okay with it.

I think that we do not know what His mind is on it. “T”"E”"C” is not in general pro-life. I do think that Anglicans for Life could use more members.

I should clarify my previous remark. Christ’s will is clearly that we should join His Church; obviously, there are different teachings here on how that Church is identified and where She can be found. What His merciful judgment will be in any given case outside exceptional sanctity, we cannot know. And that is probably a very good thing.

I guess this means I should be praying for (should have been praying for) Ragsdale.

Sigh.

OK

According to the abortion industry, those women either do not exist or the after affects are all in their heads, and certainly not real.

I’m glad to hear this. But how do you spend 6 years working your way up the ladder at PP, then another 2 as Director, without seeing an ultrasound of an abortion?

How much time did the Apostle Paul spend persecuting and killing Christians before taking that road to Damascus? That’s a dangerous question to ask of anyone.

Christopher -

Was that directed at me? I’m not asking “why didn’t she convrt sooner;” I’m wondering how someone can be groomed for and placed as management in an abortion provider without ever seeing an ultrasound. Unless I’m misreding, she didn’t see one until almost 8 years on the job. That’s like being an NFL scout and then GM without ever seeing a pro game. Is the willful ignorance an institutional design?

No, stephen, it wasn’t. I’m just saying that these sorts of things happen when God wants them to happen and not before. She could have seen dozens of these things before it finally registered. I know that better than any man alive.

Stephen, a rhetorical question, of course: Why would anyone in the abortion business want to see an ultrasound? For better targeting techniques? Ultrasounds are for those who care about the life and health of the child inside. I’m quite sure the ignorance is unconciously wilfull if not deliberate.

No one is irredeemable

Nice but unbiblical. Those who are in darkness can come into the light!

But those who once were saved, but who have left the light and turned to darkness, turned against the natural order, man turning to man, woman turning to woman, in blessing what God has cursed, and cursing what God has blessed – have committed the unforgivable sin and are damned for eternity with absolutely no hope of redemption or salvation.

This is the state of Spong, Robinson, Shori, and everyone who aids and abets TEC. Including Lawrence, Harmon. and Hey – in spite of what they believe or their self-deluding “personal relationship” with someone they believe is Christ but who is actually Satan.

Two comments:

- Danby:

I guess I’m a tad biased, being Roman Catholic myself. At any rate, I don’t think she’s welcome in that congregation anymore, the Episcopal Church being what it is. I will pray for the Lord to show her where she needs to go…

- Sinner (if you are being serious and not satirical):

We may say that someone is on the road to hell, but we must ultimately leave the judgement of his soul to God. Last I looked, you’re not Him, and neither am I.

Nad, Sinner, if you’re being satirical…you’re trying way too hard.

Let us recall that Sinner tries to make conservatives look bad by presenting the most offensive plausible caricature that he can. He has also been known as the Admiral of Morality.

I thought of Sinner when I saw this post. I suppose he can’t bear the thought that Christians actually do forgive, and rejoice at someone’s turning from sin. It upsets all his preconceived notions which he must continually try to believe in order to convince himself that repentance is not an option.

Sinner. Stop eating husks in the pig trough. Repent and experience forgivenes. His yoke is easy and his burden light.

Now you must deliberately come up with absurd interpretations of Heb 6:4, Heb 10:29, Rom 1:26 and Mt 12:31, but you know this is just a poor excuse on your part. Please lay down your arms and consider the unthinkable, at least for a minute.

I’m wondering how someone can be groomed for and placed as management in an abortion provider without ever seeing an ultrasound.

In most medical facilities, the management and medical side are quite separate. Very few, if any, MDs run hospitals. They are run by folks with Health Care Management MBAs. I rarely come across a CEO of a hospital who has witnessed an open heart surgery or most of the procedures that go on. They certainly know about them, but the medical side is generally left to the docs, and the business side to the mbas. It is a little different from most other industries, where, for instance, an oil co exec may have come up the ranks through a petroleum engineering area. And even then, executives often come from the financial rather than the production side.

“Sinner”, here’s an idea for you: why don’t you undertake a little study of the following characters in Richard Wagner’s opera Parsifal: Amfortas, Klingsor, Kundry, Parsifal. Report back with which of these four at the end are redeemed relative not only to the work’s progression but both to your viewpoint and also the Biblical criteria based on the information offered therein.

Is that a deal?

Otherwise, thank God for small mercies like the redemption of this lady and her finally renouncing abortion!!!

Got a little chilly for her on Sundays, though.
