Either this is an example of how ridiculous abortion is or this man wishes to be flamed to death. I have never heard such a evil thing on this network before. I can't believe people really think like this. I hope no one else out there has this demented view of children, whether you are pro-abortion or not. Does this man propose that we set ourselves up higher than any other authority and kill children because they can't take care of themselves? I just can't believe anyone could say such a thing! Since you know that I'm very conservative, you must have guessed I am anti- abortion. I believe that since all life comes from God, and that a fetus is alive, you are killing a creation of God when you have an abortion done. Only God has the right to take away any life that He gave. I suppose that as time goes on, more and more liberals will view children as a burden and wish to get rid of them at older and older ages. "Oh my, he cries to much. Let's kill him and get another." Is this what I will hear parents saying in the future? How disgusting! This man says removing a child from the womb is a form of rejection. I say it is a form of murder, and the worst kind. -- "...holding forth the Ken Nichols word of life..." Phil. 2:16 ...!ucbvax!dual!qantel!ken ------------------
