I don’t doubt that life begins at conception, but I think it is a poor argument against abortion. Contraception is one choice that men and women have, but contraception should not be a woman’s only choice. What if the male involved cannot or will not support the child?
I am a Democrat and the people where I work as a volunteer know it; and even my pastor and many of the people I go to church with know it. I don't like weapons of war on our streets and I don't like it when I see racism. There are times when I avoid confrontation, however, with a Republican friend by changing the subject to air quality. I just like to discuss the issues.
Simply saying why can’t we all get along seems kind of foolish. We should at least be able to talk with each other.
