Yes, of course I am pro-choice, although I don't normally call it that. It is not the ability to make a choice that informs the intrinsic right. Choices that violate others are not rights. But abortion was a right before it became legal. It is just that society does not respect the intrinsic rights of existence. It had to be forced in the slavery issue; And it had to be forced in this one. I don't mean forced to do: That would be immoral; I mean forced to take their hands off of the throat.

Regardless of the character of the mother, or her reasons--it is a right.

I have not forgotten your request for information in an earlier post. It seemed genuine, so I will try to put something together--but not today. J & J bath time. <ggg>
