JAM I adore you but...

Honestly, I'm not a member of PETA but I don't give a rat's behind about the suffering of "unborn babies" either. Maybe that sounds cruel and heartless but that's fine with me. I care about the women who don't want to have a child -- they shouldn't be forced to do it against their will, period. What about their suffering? If this is about suffering, I can't think of many things that would be worse than being forced to carry a parasite around for nine months of misery -- and yes, that's exactly what a fetus is to a woman who doesn't want it.

You know, I'm morally opposed to eating meat, so I don't do it. Mr. valkyrie doesn't do it either and I don't think I could ever be in a relationship with someone who did. Maybe for fun I'll start going to restaurants and holding up pictures of bloody cows when other people are eating meat. Maybe I'll get my friends together to block Outback Steakhouse and taunt the people going there. Or wait, maybe I'll realize that my view is my view and I'll leave other people alone and let them live their own lives and make their own decisions -- even though I find their behavior morally reprehensible. That's a novel idea, isn't it?
