@kellyjay saidI accept that you refuse to TELL ME YOUR UNDERSTANDING.
No, you see I have already said, it means what it says, and says what it means.
You on the other hand have to enlighten others what text means, you reject some
you twist others, its all about you.
The thing is scripture actually frowns on your approach.

I also accept that it's pointless to try to have a rational discussion with you.
@thinkofone saidI told you my understanding.

Tell me yours.
@chaney3 saidA fully-functioning person over a mass of cells unable to sustain life without its host?
It puzzles me that you place women's rights over a life.
Yep.
That you don't is because you're a man. No skin off your nose if women have no rights.
@chaney3 saidYou're digressing.
Fine, don't answer.
Because the answer is that if Mary chose her women's rights, and decided that Jesus wasn't really a 'human' at 1 month of her pregnancy, then Christianity wouldn't exist.
Gabriel told her what was what. She was happy to be an instrument of the Lord. Drawing any kind of parallel between Mary and a single mother from the projects just doesn't fly.

from mom or others? There are rights and responsibilities wrapped up in the
human families! Fathers should be providing and caring for his family loving them
as he can, the mother no different caring those in her family! The parents are tied
to their children and you are making this sound like a trap, something to be
despised and shunned here!
It isn't that women don't have rights, you are turning responsibilities into chains,
instead of loving those within, you are calling it right to just kill them off in very
horrific ways instead. Where is the love here, if we are not looking out for the
most helpless among us who are we?
