It's OVER 5,000!
If you argue one and turn a blind eye to the other, that is indeed a problem. Thankfully not all do.
Btw, reverse the order. Would that describe you?
The new "saw" of the "pro-choice" crowd is so annoying. You think it's cute and all. I look out upon a congregation each Sunday and see the very type of people who were at the march and I see a group of people involved in adoption, in child advocacy, in hospice care, in soup-kitchens, and clothing closets, and all manner of mercy ministries. And they do it humbly, and quietly. Oh, btw, they represent the various political parties to boot. So, your pejorative charge "pro-birth" rings hollow to me. Sorry.
i don't in anyway believe at certain points the other one is a person
so, i guess so [MENTION=68]BedellBrave[/MENTION]
but i'm sure saying that statement will be taken to the extreme

This is very true and not to be overlooked. I think there are some troubling things in the intersection of abortion politics and social policy, but I don't like to see that broad brush painting all of the people who stand up for those beliefs.
On a tangentially connected topic, I have seen various corners of the adoption universe up close (my two eldest kids are adopted) and while I saw some unscrupulous folks who wore the mantle of religion, I also experienced tremendous love, kindness, generosity, and aid from people of the same stripe, who lived their beliefs every day.
Thanks Julio.
To gold: Gotcha. Convenient.
