There is a piece of legislation. We've reacted to it differently. I have some concerns about it you don't share. That's all ok. This is politics.
It doesn't mean that either of us is motivated by irrationality, hatred of FR, the GOP, President Bush, or anything else. Nor does it mean that one of us is more at odds with God than the other.
We've gotten along in the past, and while you're clearly passionate about this topic, I don't sense any malice in your posts. I hope, however, that in the future you might contemplate your reaction here a bit, and reconsider some of the rhetorical excess.

In reference to my rhetorical excess, that's just how I like to write.
I speak that way, too.
I'm passionate. I used to be irascible. I've been reborn but I'm still growing. (:
I have some concerns about it you don't share.
Your anxiety is unsubstantiated. Your continuously posted concerns appear to me to be either irrational weakness or purposeful subterfuge. I love and respect you; your behavior on this thread makes no sense to me. Every question you have posed about the language and possible loopholes of this legislation has been invalidated. The answers you have received have not been insubstantial opinion but established fact, direct quotes, verifiable truth: they have made no difference to you.
I have known you to be very actively pro-life. This is the first piece of pro-life legislation we have seen brought through the US Congress that will actually be signed by the President. It outlaws partial birth abortion. With no basis in logic whatsoever you are actively against it.
That was the cause of my reaction.
