Sir,

I really want you to get the last word with me on this, so I will not reply to your answer.

You said: To be honest, I don't think that's possible. Look at the post that started all this (The guy saying "God willing, abortion does cause breat cancer). It was post number 3 or 4?

Why, if you are "agnostic about abortion" as you told me, would you be affected, outraiged, or whatever you are, by this statement? If you don't believe that something is possible, then why waste your time, energy and emotion on something you don't believe could be a factor? Only God, (whatever you preceve God to be), could make that statement true. If you don't believe God is pro-life, then why worry, and if you think God may be pro-life and may make that statement true (the statement you quote above about the cause of the cancer)then one would be totally crazy to be anything other than pro-life. Do you agree or disagree with me here?

For example, if I thought that some religion was "made up" and I didn't believe in it, and that religion taught that it's founder was going to cause my head to explode if I didn't believe in their ways, why would I even worry about my head exploding? It's only if I thought that there was some chance that the religion was true would I care about it and I certainly wouldn't get myself all twisted in a knot if the information I was getting from this religion was comming to me over an internet chat room.

One last thing, at the risk of being a name caller, you may want to reconsider your statement about abortion never being outlawed. The general rule of thumb for ayone who loves or studies human history or science and technology is... never ever say never- ever.

Tom

I don't want to think you're trying to bait me but.....

I belive in God. And I have no idea if he's pro-life or pro-choice. That's not for me to decide.

As for getting upset even if I didn't believe in God and even if I thought he WAS pro-choice...

That person actually expressed hope that abortion causes breat cancer. There is NO excuse for that.
