I was not questioning your attitude, RP. I suppose the personal versus the societal choice is the crux of the matter. To say more would draw me into my own experiences/consequences and I am not ready to do that. I don't think the West handles death very well despite its vast medical resources, nursing homes, graveyards, etc. And I don't regard abortion as a form of birth control- though it appears to be accepted as such.
