Do you actually believe that it's better for the girl to take an active role and become a perpetrator of evil rather than simply work through the issues involved in having been a victim of evil; to promote more evil on top of evil?

And, how is it that you do not think that to bear the child would be to receive "beauty for ashes"; to have a blessing in place of a curse; to commit a deeply loving and personal act of redemption on behalf of an helpless and innocent one?

You are arguing that killing the victim's child is an appropriate course of action, here. How did the child become culpable to the point of deserving a death sentence? The child wasn't even in existence at the time, so how is it that you impute some blood-guilt for which it must die?

I have seven children; four living. I have known the heights of joy and the heart-wrenching depths of human sorrow. I know the value of human life, and I tell you that all the wealth of the nations cannot move the balance when set against the life of just ONE of my children.

I have two families that are close friends; one who endured the tragedy of rape, and the other who was blessed with being given the chance to adopt the beautiful life that was born out of that tragedy. Out of shame and humiliation came true beauty and great joy and blessing to everyone. Great adversity was overcome with great love.

I highly recommend a ground-up reassessment of your position; there is untold good that you have overlooked.

The use of this kind of hyperbole is why I detest what most of these threads become, and the people who drive them into the dirt, each and every time the subject is discussed.

There is no point in using it, and you only drive the wedge in tighter and deeper.

Disgusting crap.....But then I have opinions on most everything......
