Charley, we'll be lucky if the Christian church isn't run out of the country within 10 years. Check this one out. For years, 15 different churches, including Catholics, and a bunch of Protestant denominations have been taking turns holding Sunday services in a band shell on a lake in Minneapolis.

I'm not so sure, CharleyMane. The trend has been toward restricting civil liberties, not expanding them. I think the choicers have reason to worry when states start writing sweeping bans on abortion.
Granted, it's only a trend, but I don't know where it'll top out.

Abortion may or not be made illegal, but it certainly won't stop. The Polish experience is instructive, as are others. I live in a country where abortion is strictly illegal, but it goes on everywhere, every day.

Demand creates supply. Always has, always will.
