While I do believe in God, I'm not a literalist with the Bible, and I think
that's what you are asking for. Read Leviticus 11-19 and ask yourself if you
follow the Bible as the unadulterated word of God yourself (e.g. do have a
priest inspect the mildew in your house?). But I digress.

Being pro-choice simply means that you view a woman as more than a
fetus-carrying vessel. And in fact, my argument is plausible, as evidenced by
the fact that those SAME PEOPLE often fight for alternatives as well. For
example, Planned Parenthood offers discounted prenatal care and has office
hours as late as 9 pm, which can help poor women pursue adoption rather than be
forced to either have an abortion or reduce their working hours and shell out a
great deal of money for medical care.

Let's be serious for a minute. The left wing is too disorganized to have any
conspiracy going.

If these documents really exist, get a fairly reputable newspaper to publish
them. Until that happens, I'm not touching that one.

If you are really scared for yourself and your family because of what the FBI is
doing, wouldn't you want a change in administration? Maybe that's just me. And
exactly what does legalized abortion have to do with your family being safe? I
have doubts that you are being forced to have an abortion, but maybe you are,
and if that is the case I do see the connection and would certainly fight for
your right to object to it. If not, I don't.
