Accusations? Read it again. I was only asking questions.

You know what amazes me? That in the years I have been on SI so many supposedly well-heeled, intelligent people cannot seem to comprehend what they read. I type out things in simple black and white and they read into my words and thoughts all of their own ideas and prejudices and then come back with what they have added or created and attack that! Fascinating.

In any case, if you do invest the 10 seconds required to re-read the original post, you will see I just asked questions. They are indeed inflammatory questions (designed to be so) but can a question be an accusation?

Religion and theology have NO validity in a debate about abortion -- only objective science and the interpretation of inalienable rights do. My argument was that the potential to be a human being should not take precedence over the rights of a living human being, nor even a human being's needs.
