mike..ever given birth? no your a man... you might think differently if you were a woman... choice...it must be available... why are you saying it must not?... i know a woman who had 4 abortions to her partner ..and wondered why the partner want not to have sex... she was a bitch...he should have left her...she ended up with his best friend by finding him on the net..he the new partner has a kiddy to another woman the kiddy is 18..poor ex partner at 55 has no kiddy thanks to his bitch ex how says a kiddy was too much for her ...it's sad for him and i feel for him... why he clung on to the bitch is a mystery..he still hangs around her... though now there are 3 of them... both the men look very much alike... like brothers same age same height..same look...and she prances in short mini skirts at age 55... all are highly educated... so what's your take on her behaviour?..merle p.s. i am giving up on the animal verse human... Merle,
You tried to make a point about being morally superior by asking if I acknowledge the animal being eaten (you failed miserably btw, as I have been vegetarian most of my adult life). I'm responding in kind. Two can play at that game! You seem to be saying it's okay to terminate a potential human life as it's the woman's right to choose to abort. Yes or no? Mike Sent from Yahoo!

If you care to go back into the archives on this forum you'll see how I argued against the eating of meat. Since then I've mellowed from those views in so far as its up to the individual to choose. Killing an animal is different from eating what is offered to you *although* by choosing to eat it you indirectly cause another to do the killing and this is something that has to be considered. I've since recently reintroduced meat into my diet, but plan on returning to a vegetarian diet soon. On all vipassana retreats the food served is vegetarian and vegetarianism is encouraged, but not enforced. So, I take it you give thanks for every bite of meat that you partake. Yes? Know any other animal that does that? Since you tried to make a point, what's your take on a woman's right to choose regarding abortion? Mike Sent from Yahoo!
