Reserving 'pro-life' for unborn babies kind of defeats the purpose. \"Are we justified in using articles, no matter how convenient it may be for us to use them, that we know were produced in conditions which bored and even stultified the human beings who had to make them?\" -John Seymour | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| When we debated abortion in my Moral Philosophy class this year, my teacher presented this ethical question which is used as an argument for Pro-Lifers. It is.... If you knew a woman who was pregnant, and she had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis; would you recommend that she have an abortion? If you said yes, you just killed Beethoven. It seems like a good arguement on the surface but it really isn't. It is simply defeated by the fact that you can't look into the future and the chances that your aborted baby would have been Beethoven, like Beethoven, as talented as Beethoven, or resembled Beethoven are extremely little. So as a class we figured out a counter statement and it's hilarious. It's not really serious either, but still hilarious... Abort your baby, it's probably not Beethoven. But it don't take much to get me by So just booze me up and get me high Ween | |||||||||||||||||||||

Im surprised you didn't hear about that whole fiasco about Ward Churchill. O'Reilly really over empasised the matter. Basically he called the victims of the 911 attacks little Eichmens. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,145871,00.html Godbless, Tadpole. “I am a Republican.
