then we would not have leather in our lounges, cars, shoes.

Abby, use your passion to work to reduce
unwanted pregnancies, rather than judge those who make such a difficult
choice.
Just wanted to make
it clear that I judge the action, not the woman. A very good
friend of mine had an abortion, I love her
I don't find it ridiculous that you would
say it. Vegetarians are often held to much "higher" expectations than others,
