Sorry to hear about your accident....*hug*

About abortion....I also have the problem of seeing both sides and being 
able to argue effectively for both....however, I do strongly believe that 
abortion is murder....that child did not ask to be conceived...and there 
are so many people waiting to adopt that they are put on waiting lists for 
years....it always did bug me how a woman could easily go and have an 
abortion but then claim she could never carry to term and then give the 
baby up for adoption....I have three words for that kind of 
person...WHAT-EV-ER...seems to me that it would be easier to give the 
child up for adoption to a family who would love it and raise it as their 
own rather than _killing_ it.....

I realise that sometimes abortion is necessary in cases where the child is 
going to be born horribly disfigured and will live in misery during its 
existence...but don't get started on the "what if a woman were raped" 
scenario....(At the risk of getting way too personal...*sigh*.....the 
lengths we go to to share a view...) I was raped, and even though the 
thought of caring that monster's child repulsed me, if I had conceived, I 
would not have had an abortion.

ANYWAY....I think that this issue is something that every woman must make 
her own mind up about. If she can lie with the fact that she terminated a 
L-I-F-E....well, then, so be it...I also want to say that I do not think 
the government has any say in this matter...it is a personal matter, not 
a matter of State.

Well, I sure went on a lot more than I meant to...sorry...geez I can be 
long winded. *grin*

Well, I guess we will see where *THIS* debate gets us!

*hugs*
