Bob, res-<<<I can't see how having one less unwanted child in the world can be anything but a good thing. >>> A cliche' spoken many times in the liberal mainstream media. Please tell me what you mean by unwanted? Does a child lose the right to life because of a predetermined level of parenting at that given moment? Can parents not change and become wonderful parents as they grow with their children? Are we all frozen in time to the birth of our children? The controlling liberal elite would like to force every parent to be educated in some ivy league school before allowing them the right to reproduce. Do you see us one day reaching a point where we will have to submit to some checklist of government requirements before being allowed to have children? Incrementalism is the hallmark of the liberal philosophy. Having the right to kill a child who could be removed from the womb and survive on his/her own should not be dependent on a parental checklists, matched to a predetermined "want" government desire. "Unwanted" when honesty examined is a meaningless statement used to justify the killing of children. Or if you prefer fetus. Partial Birth Abortion is a heinous form of murder on the unborn who have a right to be removed and survive on their own. How anyone can justify killing an 8 month 2 week old child because of overpopulation, or not meeting a predetermined "wanted" criteria is illogical and immoral. If anyone doubts what I'm saying then I challenge you to go down to your local "planned parent hood" chapter and watch a Partial Birth Abortion. Then simply go to some quiet place and listen to your inner conscience. The answer will be readily apparent. Or you could simply ask yourself this. Why is it we can see in movies and on television every horrid act known to man, but we have never seen a partial birth abortion performed? The answer is obvious, because it would dramatically change people's long held belief that it's some benign ideological decision to perform one. Michael

I sadly am the bearer of the stark reality, again... Individual \In'divid"ual\ (?; 135), a. [L. individuus indivisible; pref. in- not + dividuus divisible, fr. dividere to divide: cf. F. individuel. See {Divide}.] 1. Not divided, or not to be divided; existing as one entity, or distinct being or object; single; one; as, an individual man, animal, or city. Mind has a being of its own, distinct from that of all other things, and is pure, unmingled, individual substance. --A. Tucker. United as one individual soul. --Milton.
