You asked, as if placing an insurmountable obstacle, Why did he continue to favor exceptions for the life of the mother, and for cases of rape and incest? Perhaps for the same reason that I do also, the issue of self defense. But you apparently don't actually wish to clarify anything and have a reasonable adult discussion of the issues, so thank you for the exchanges, I have better things to do now.
My apologies, I thought you were saying that people who do believe that exceptions should be made for those cases (for any reason, self-defense, whatever) have a 'twisted mind'. That's why I thought that you were yet another fire-eater on this issue.
