- Because you equate divorcing one's religious values from one's stand
- on abortion with being pro-choice, or, as you so endearingly put it:
-
- >>> he doesn't insist on trying to control the
- >>>lives of others.
-
- I guess you'd do away with prisons, if you are opposed to laws that
- control the lives of others. Of cours, if you are a solipsist, you
- cannot be hurt by this silly little dream, a.k.a. real life, that
- you are having, so why bother with prisons? [Further cheap shots
- omitted.]
