It is a hard thing to read you Gary...for a few reasons.

One is because you attempt to paint your political persuasions as right and good and morally sound.

But when put to the test, you as a person lash out at those who counter your beliefs. You play dirty.

It does more to show a faulty philosophy when you resort to such low level tactics.

Maintain the topic without going personal. And without ad hominem.

And try using the quote prompts.

That is absolutely correct!

How did I lash out? Isn't what I said about the woman being left with the baby correct?

Did I get it right this time?

Yes you got it right this time! Thank you Gary!

As to lashing out, well, if I had not been on here and reading you right then, you would have in your recent post, a very unessential remark. But I applied my super powers and made it dsappear!

garysher - rather that all this typing, why don't you just post the addresses of all the posts you've made on other boards with this same faux sensitivity?

would you like me to do it?

instead of arguing you could just post: insane circular argument #1; or, insulting slur #4 - it would save you so much time.

Now you've moved on from slurs to ad hominem remarks.

Progress of sorts

The arguments set forth by Tadpole and the KnightofSaphho and the Baloney-Detector all have given me much to consider and when you see something, it is foolish to hang on to what has only before been comfortably familiar.

And now it is consistent with my emerging feminist views too.

Thank you all for what you have taken the time and thought to share.

I bet your kids are glad you weren't pro-abortion before they were born.
