Welcome to Gaia! ::

I like plankton's version more. ^_^

"F is for fire, that burns down the whole town
U is for Uranium! Bombs!
N is for no survivers! When you..."

"Plankton! That's not the way it goes!"

I love Spongebob. heart

But yeah. I don't really think we can cooperate. The beliefs of our two sides are far too polar. And when we make the smallest compromise (Say, we allow in case of rape, or in case of the mother's mortal danger), they yell at us for that too, claiming those ideas can't fit.

Now, as for being friends with them, I completely support that. Most of my friends are/are probably Pro-Choice. But I don't think we can really cooperate on this issue.

Let's not forget, "I can call you ant-choice, but you can't call me anti-life!" And then when you show them how that is not so, "You don't know what you're talking about. I'm ignoring you." Also, "I can compare pregnancy to slavery, but you can't compare a fetus to a slave. Slaves were BORN, duh!" Which, while illustrating the point beautifully and doing exactly what slaveholders did back when abolitionists made the same sort of argument, is really frustrating because you think they're smarter than that and then you get that sorta punch in the face where you find out that no, this person is too prejudiced to look outside his or her own worldview.

The truth is no one is totally open minded, we all have our prejudices and sterotypes...however most of us can work through them and overcome them on a case by case basis.

The "openminded" choicers seem to just say "well of course I'm openminded!" and then proceed to be just as bigotted as a hick from Arkansas.
