    It's nice having junior high school kids not only doing computing, but
also reading and submitting articles to the net, expecially net.abortion.

    At least, that's WHO I think wrote the response to Paul DuBois.  I
doubt that such a person has taken Elementary Biology, or else they would
know that the genetic material of the fetus is DIFFERENT from that of
the mother, and therefore CANNOT be a biological part of the mother in the
same sense that her finger or nose is.

    Let's hear it for a liberal arts education!!!
