"I knew you when you were still in your mother's womb"?

Paul... I was thinking the same thing, since my wife throws that in my face everytime we have a discussion on the topic (usually because I foolishly debate it out here online and she happens to see what I'm writing.. :0).

Some of these folks think I'm being extreme, but that seen anything compared to my wife. I'm constantly catching heat from her when I tell her that since we live in a Representative Republic, I don't have the right to utterly deny a woman the right to an abortion since the whole concept of "life at conception" is traditionally a religiously derived concept. And we can't inflict religious views while protecting certain inherent rights of the secular society.

But we can apply pressure to force the secularists to respect the long-established precedent against abortion as birth control.

But personally, abortion is only one aspect of this election, and certainly not one that we'll find a whole lot of tolerance on from either side.

It may be the time to move on and find something else for the quasi-liberals/conservatives, otherwise known as moderates, to waffle over.... :0)

Btw, it is GREAT to see Zeev participating out here...

Always nice to see one of the greater SI gurus gracing us with his presence.... <VBG>

Regards,

Ron
