I can't recall the number of times I have asked pro lifers if they really knew for example just what partial birth abortion was. Most were shocked to discover the process is allowing the head to be birthed and then creating an opening in the skull and vacuuming the brain out. They did not know that was what it meant....yet they had a position on it. And that is what is very concerning in this day and age where folks get all emotional based on party lines (sheeple...non thinkers) or lean in the direction the media outlines for them (sheeple with honors!!).
The premise is....do you believe in taking a human life.....yes or no?
No shades of gray...many might think other wise if there was ever a consideration for weeding out the too old or the too sick. Why is that a stretch for the imagination? The taking of a life is the taking of a life no matter how it is served up.

I am not a very good debater on this issue because my views are rather strident and "not up to date".
To me abortion is simply another step we took to justify our need to be able to do whatever we wanted when we wanted and how we wanted. We never seem to attack the problems of society, just find a way to make it easy for us.
I realize I am saying it more black and white that I should but that is my basic belief; I DO know that times change but I dont think that right and wrong or morals change...we simply make them change to fit our spoiled needs !
