I grieve that your heart is so hardened. I am at a loss at how to explain the implications behind your beliefs. So I will argue and debate no more. I will however, pray for you. Especially to the Patroness of the Preborn, Our Lady.

I pray that Christ the Good Shepherd who gathers the children into His loving arms may move your heart to mercy, your mind to Truth, your soul to grace and your will to His will, amen.

Thank you for that prayer. There have been many good points made by those posting on this thread and they will probably have some impact. There have also been some grossly distorted interpretations of what I have written but I can do little to change that.

I acknowledge that you don't want to debate but if you choose, please respond to this question: If you would give birth, even if there might not be a live baby and it would put your life at great risk, most likely leaving your family without a wife and mother, how does this serve the cause of life?

I know this is a very rare case, but I am addressing your "no exceptions" position.

I am not for absolute freedom regarding an abortion decision, and I think that decision is now being abused. I would not oppose the overturning of Roe v Wade. I think the abortion debate is hurting and dividing our society. I think fanatical, emotional and uncompromising positions on this question are not going to lead to progress (voluntary decreasing of abortions).
