Thank you for writing this with such insight and clarity. And to imagine there are those who assume that a woman who chooses to be at home with her children has no brain!<BR/><BR/>I hope you will not mind if I link to your blog from my own page;<BR/>veritasetcaritas.blogspot.comSarahLee08https://www.blogger.com/profile/10859287600772206570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4865004314650777465.post-14157156294985842432008-10-18T18:22:00.000-04:002008-10-18T18:22:00.000-04:00Thank you!

I'm putting this one in the memory bank for discussion at work-- although it's always a dangerous place for political conversation.earthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11022185844621299329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4865004314650777465.post-12168941618927481252008-10-18T14:24:00.000-04:002008-10-18T14:24:00.000-04:00That was a fun read.

The disparity between war (particularly this low-casualty war), and abortion (especially on this massive scale), seems so obvious, but it is helpful to remember that most people's thinking nowadays is seldom based on logical constructs and reasoning, and without this foundation, they are easily swayed on the basis of emotion and rhetoric. (Please don't think I am referring to your friend, who obviously wished to engage in genuine discussion!) I enjoyed having the familiar general arguments filled in with specific references and broken down, maybe not to first prinicples, but at least Christian commonalities.
