You think I should acknowledge what I wrote as accusations when they are not, and feel guilt for asking probing questions? 1. Why aren't you wringing your hands over the millions of children dying in South America, Asia and Africa? Just a question. The answers PROLIFE could give range from A: "I do." to Z: "Because that's not my problem." 2. Is it because they are not Americans? -- Or worse, it is because they are not white? These are definitely not accusations, but two questions. They are predicated on an assumptive response such as "Z" above. If "Z" is not applicable, then the questions become irrelevant. 3. You seem to care a great deal about a potential (that is yet unproven), but care nothing for the children who cry during the night and scream through the day for your help. Operative word: "seem" -- certainly not accusatory, but speculative in nature. My use of the word "seem" means I am unsure and looking for validation of the perception or more evidence that supports the contrary. FT
