Bush defies American Public Opinion on environment/pollution: 73% of Americans say JOIN KYOTO TREATY, 94% say DO SOMETHING ABOUT GREENHOUSE GASES. news.ft.com But Bush does nothing. Can you say "bought and paid for by petrochemical industry"? CHeney and Delay too of course. Those Texans have sure messed with the USA. Corrupt.

When a woman becomes pregnant Twatson, does her body then belong to that fetus, and to the child born, whether she likes it or not? Is all her choice then gone?

Under your belief seems to me that anyone who interrupts that process intentionally is guilty of murder, and thus the law should cover it. Under what I guess the abortionists belief is, there is no life until the baby pops out and is severed from the umbilical cord, thus its not murder but rather an operation on the mother herself to rid herself of an inconvenience. I believe the above presents the case as simply as possible. Now, there are two laws in place here. The laws of man, and the laws of God. In my mind there is absolutely NO DOUBT that in the laws of God, a murder has occurred. My only question is whether or not the laws of Man should apply. To determine that seems to me one has to prove in court exactly when LIFE begins. To do that one has to start by defining what LIFE is? In the Schiavo case the courts ruled that since she couldnt function ordinarily and required a feeding tube that she was FUNCTIONALY DEAD, thus they had no problem with finishing her off by removing the feeding tube. If thats the state of our law, I dont see how a fetus will be found to be LIFE in the womb of the mother. So, theres the question that I put to your scientific mind. jdn
