I don't buy it because it doesn't pass the "giggle" test. Faith and reason are not in conflict, and reason would indicate that the point of conception is not a good time for the soul to enter the body. Nature herself sheds fertilized eggs down the drain all the time. Spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) occurs with great frequency in the first trimester. It simply makes no sense that a God who is a whole lot smarter than I am would put a soul in a fertilized egg. I just don't buy it. I believe there is an age of reason for a human being, and that it does not occur even in infancy. But the Supreme Court was willing to state that the first trimester was a logical cutoff, and most people can live with that except in cases of extreme duress to the mother. As far as meddling in God's business goes, that's not what the pro-choice crowd is doing. What they are trying to do is to keep people like you from meddling inside a woman's body over whom you should have no say. On this earth, neither you nor I are tasked to do God's business. We have our hands full with #1 -- our business. - Kris www.shamrocktrails.com, www.emryldlife.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
