Did I say something inaccurate? PROLIFE, we've discussed this all at length before, and someone did lie in that discussion, and it wasn't I. It took awhile but I proved it, didn't I? Though possibly that's unfair, in the sense that the lie was told by a pamphlet you've been distributing for many years and yourself, absurdly, believed. Of course, when I asked you if you were going to straighten out the publishers of the lying (you finally had to admit) forced-gestation pamphlet producers, you answered "WHAT IS SO WRONG ABOUT LYING TO SAVE LIVES??!!!!"

Remember that?

So let's get back to your accusation that it was I who lied. It is possible I made an error in reporting your view about a woman's right to choose not to carry a fertilized ovum to term. After all, your position may have changed.

Do you now agree with me that the long arm of the state should stay out of people's uteruses?

Is what you believe that the state should NOT be enforcing gestation of fertilized ova to term, on unwilling female citizens?

Because that's what I believe.

And if you say I 'lied,' we must now agree on this matter, isn't that so?

Good! I'm gratified to learn that you no longer believe women should be forced by the government to gestate fertilized ova, but should have the freedom to obtain safe, legal abortions from qualified physicians.

PROLIFE, I have to be offline for a while, so was looking forward to your replying in the early part of the day. But I've just realized that, it being a Sunday morning, you are probably at church, so I won't see you until later.

It will be worth the delay to witness the effect on your heart and mind, your soul, manifested in a new, Jesus-like loving kindness, in your next, post-church post. I have faith that, for a change, the spirit of God's loving grace will have touched your soul and you will be transformed, transformed utterly.

I am wondering what a post of yours not informed by a hate-drenched zealotry will be like, and look forward to hearing from you.

If you and I can agree, as we have, that the state should not force women to gestate unwillingly, and you can write to me without that note of rabidity, zealotry and hate, as I fully expect you will do after church, perhaps there is hope for the world.
