not at all. It's just you trying to get around something you can't credibly defend.
We're stuck with abortion and nobody would have noticed had it not been for the evangelicals.

I would add that, no matter where one acquires "thoughts" on subjects, said thoughts should be applied - in public, say legislatively, with concentrated objectivity bearing in mind legal standings that associate with our constitution. Otherwise such objections are nothing but faction rhetoric that means nothing.

Once again, none of that means anything to the subject of the discussion because the subject of the discussion is "what motivates the antiabortionists". I say it's the ideals of the Christian evangelicals. So let's try and stay on topic shall we?

It aborted your petty argument.

I seriously doubt that we will come to any consensus as concerning the ethical (or non-ethical) nature of abortion-on-demand--at least, anytime within this generation. So I will not approach the matter directly.
But I will ask this:
Do others agree that one's stance on the matter is really determined by whether one believes that our country should be entirely (and unapologetically) secular, or should be underpinned by Judeo-Christian thought?
To reiterate, I am not asking for a re-litigation of the matter. I am merely asking if others would agree that this is the fault line.
If you dont know the ethical differance I really feel sory for you comrade jet it has nothing to do with relgion it has to do with right and wrong .
