Hey, I'm sure your friends are real swell people and they'll go straight to heaven for their efforts. I hate what these assholes did to my niece, and thus the term "crisis pregnancy center" has a bit of a different meaning to me.

i don't speculate on who is going to be in heaven or hell. that is a personal thing.

but as far as your judgement of CPC's goes... if someone makes broadbrush, overgeneralized statements and assumptions of a minority group based on the actions of a few members of said group, you would call that person an ignorant racist. you do the same thing in regards to CPC counselors (who are generally christians) and it is acceptable? still seems ignorant and presumptive to me.

i am sorry that your niece dealt with ignorant fools, but that does not mean that all CPC's are the same.

What exactly do you think "crisis pregnancy counselors" actually do? For the most part they are Christians (as you admit) who try to talk women out of getting abortions because it is "morally wrong." Do you think they care if that is the best decision for the woman or girl involved? No, they just don't want anyone to have an abortion, regardless of the situation, and for the most part their arguments are based on religion. To me, that's promoting an agenda--not helping people.

I'm sure the counselors you know are sweet as hell to you at church on Sunday, but have you ever sat before one of 'em as a confused teenager looking for OBJECTIVE answers to your questions? Perhaps you might see the situation in a different light if you had.
