so bob, what else ya got?
well done expsredemption - i love science threads and you've sifted through the retorts quite well.
i too wish people would remove the noise (eg. abortion, roe v wade, rights) when asked the simple question about what makes humans human.
when one either doesn't know or doesn't care it is very easy to distract with bible quoting or wire hangars which just confuses people.
abortion is the law of the land - we get it!
so now illustrate in your own thoughts and reasoning why that is so. and don't waste our time w/ religion or legal arguments.
that is unless one thinks 5-4 rulings are mandates...
if it is to correct a mistake then be proud of that decision.
want to know what the number one deterrent is for women seeking abortion?
