Since I am not religious, I don't have a presupplied interest in the sanctity of life. That justifies the question. eAs for your "gosh" sentence, you are implying that I am more than likely to be morally monstrous. Not personally, but what I said is true. There is a danger in justifying the taking of life for humanitarian reasons. I do not need to be a woman to hear and appreciate stories of young women whose horizons have been suddenly collapsed by an unwanted pregnancy. You've heard a lot of such stories? Women that wished their children had been aborted? Do you know there are women who regret abortions too?

"Is this a question? Greg used the same technique, pasting a question mark on the end of a declarative sentence. Then he hounded his mark saying "I asked a question"." Of course it was a question Jacq, and a perfectly legitimate one based on what Solon said when he claimed to have been "informed" about someone who had cancer through his wifes involvement in Spiritualism etc etc.. I also immediately rephrased and clarified the question. Solon doesn't want to answer the question so he feigns outrage and substitutes insults and hateful bigotry in place of reason. Being someone who appears to automatically dismisses the supernatural: aren't you just a little bit interested in how Solon's wife came by the supernatural knowledge about someone else's health? Brumar legitimately drew an inference from you statement and based his question on that. By it's nature, written interaction leaves out such things as intonation and body language and therefore is often too easily misunderstood. I don't know why you have your back up about it, but I suspect that you do in fact understand that if abortion is murder, then abortion is indeed, morally mysterious.
