Congratulations, MHG. Great profile daisy. I have come to realize that "a woman's right to chose" is a siren call that instantly appeals to many women, especially the young. It is very compelling -- on the surface. And once they have bought in it's almost impossible for them to analyse their position. I think every debate about abortion should start with a simple declaration by everyone involved as to when they believe life starts or at what point do they believe an embryo should be considered a child. I say this bec I believe that most women who have bought into the "right to chose" have NEVER honestly asked themselves this question, and perhaps more important, try not to for fear of their own answer. If you could just get them to seperate their thinking from the sirens for just a few minutes . . .

Thank you for your thoughtful and thought provoking words.

As a woman, this is the graphic that most moves me...Imagining somone removing a beating heart from my body...can't comprehend that.

Lee'sGhost ... That is an excellant point .. if only they would stop for a moment and ask themselves

Here is my youngest when I was 3 1/2 months pregnant

And here she is 2 years later

I still don't understand how the Pro-Choice crowd can decide when life starts

To me .. all my children are my life
