You know my belief..."if ye harm none, do as ye will"...but if I believe harm is being done...?! As a feminist and by my religious beliefs, I firmly support individual choice and individual responsibility...but that also demands that I speak out against something I believe is wrong. There is nothing anti-choice in my position. Again, don't reduce my beliefs to a slogan.

Says the man who two posts back used the terms "pro-abortion" and "anti-abortion."

"Pro-abortion" is perhaps the single most wild and fallacious of all of the abortion-related slogans.

The rest is an old song and dance that we've already been over that I don't particularly feel like slogging my way through again. It's tiresome (as I'm sure it is for anti-choicers too), because it's really impossible to have any legitimate, rational debate with (not necessarily you, but the general composite anti-choicer) the type who yammers their ass off about protecting life while loving the death penalty, loving war, and creaming their pants over torture more than any other group of people in this country.

Pro-life my ass.
