Supporting the right to life is a "social agenda"?!

Yes, it is. And a political one as well.

"Social agenda" is not necessarily a bad thing. There are good agendas and bad ones.

Aw, c'mon. We are talking about great numbers of people who have different hearts, minds, motives and goals. To lump them together in some simplistic category is intellectually lazy, sloppy, or dishonest (or all three).

Neither is it true to life to suppose that anyone acts out an allegiance to some "agenda." I certainly do not do my work here for a social or political agenda. I do it because I see it as my moral responsibility. We are all moved by our values and ideals, not by agendas.
