HiDee Again, Folks...

I used to be Very Pro-Choice...I'm very fond of Women & Underdogs... But..over recent years, I've become a Pro-Lifer...since The Unborn are the Underdogs of the First Degree.

I remember in the 'Nam War, we DE-Personalized "The Enemy" by calling them "Gooks" and whatever...then killing them wasn't so hard.

With Babies, it's "Zygotes" and "Fetuses"...

& then, I reflect how 2 of my Best Friends were both "Mistakes"..and...my Wife's the daughter of a Bastard Son, as-well.

Oh..and THAT story's a Dandy One...for a Question of Morality, &..Ties-In with Kurt's Original Question, too...

My Dad-in-Law's Mom was a Deaf Mute..Swiss-Living-in-France..border-town. Fell-in-Love with Son of local Count...(just found out last year HE was a Deaf Mute, too)..who got her pregnant. HIS Very-Catholic Family wouldn't let Him marry Her..since she was a Lutheran. His Childhood...& Their Poverty...was Nightmarish...& the shame he endured thru all his childhood in a Small Town must've been near-unbearable.

He didn't tell my wife the Family Name of her Grandfather until she was 50 years old.

Anyways, I'm indebted to his Mom for the Love..and Courage..she had in bearing a child that basically brought much discomfort and dishonor to her. And to the Mothers of my 2 good friends...

I think that the "inconvenience" is a mere 9 Months...out of hopefully a woman's Long Lifetime...and that Every Baby Conceived...deserves a Shot at a Future Life. (Even if Neither Parent's gonna raise it.)

That's Moral...in My Book. Babies deserve Rights too.

Best Wishes & Big Hugs,
Stan
