public nudity is about public health (and it's not illegal everywhere in the U.S. - it's merely regulated)

internet gambling has to do with the government getting its (assumed) fair cut of gambling income.

neither has anything to do with public 'morals' - but then, after making the argument on internet forums and being proven wrong for years, you knew that didn't you?

>>>>>>>>>>>>

Why is public nudity about public health? And how can you keep a straight face when you post that??

Internet gambling is not "merely regulated".

It's illegal for US citizens in the US

morals is adhering to the code of behavior that is considered right or acceptable in a particular society. Abortion is certainly accepted in contemporary American society.
Morals have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with you.

You've repeatedly proven that, so crawl back under your slimey rock, troll.

Ahhhh, the high cost and complexity of duplicity!

I have not read all six pages of this thread... but my god... Is there some sort of wild new pro-abortion movement that I missed while I was away? If there is I think all rational people will want this stopped. I am very pro-choice, like most rational people are, but pro-abortion... That's down-right wrong.

Pro-abortion and pro-choice are simply different degrees of the exact same thing.

I have. Plenty of them.

But I digress...

no - not at all.

'pro-abortion' is a phrase coined to inflame anger towards people who are pro-choice.

Wrong.

Pro-abortion = for abortion.
Pro-choice = for abortion.

It's very simple, if you could remove your blinders (which, obviously, you cannot).

It's the equivalent of people calling pro-lifers "anti-choice".

I've never met anyone who was pro-abortion either. I've met people who are pro-choice however. Just because you might support keeping the choice for people to make that morale decision on their own, doesn't mean you support abortions yourself.
