- |Errr...
-
- |Excuse me? I really don't see the connection. Pro-choice (in the
- |connotation that it is used in this newsgroup) refers solely to
- |allowing a woman (and/or her partner) to choose whether a pregnancy
- |is carried to term. Not to choosing schools, clothes, pets, etc.
-
- And Pro-Life (in the connotation that it is used in this newsgroup)
- refers solely to the idea that a fetus has the right not to be killed.
-
- Yet there are people out there who try to draw a connection between this
- philosophy and whether people who are Pro-Life can also support such things
- as war and the death penalty.
-
- You are right in your comment, there is no connection in the first,
- just as there is no connection in the second.
-
- Somebody implying the Pro-Life connection is what started this sub-thread.
