You and I will not be able to "resolve" (prove or disprove) this controversy so to avoid a potential flame bait war, I am not going to engage in the debate over life (I realize I kind of started it, but I think it prudent to not go down this path. Either that or start another thread).
Back to the original contention, I agree with the "legal abortion" concept. It has a few kinks to wrok out but the concept is interesting. Because this really isn't about "my body, my rights" it's about the guy having to pay no matter what.
Which brings up another point: How did our society deteriorate so far? (obviously prudence, good sex education, personal responsibility) but there's an underlying root problem: the decay of the moral fabric of our culture. The break up of family values and the obsession with me me me me me me me first culture that is running rampant throughout this great country of ours. Socailly, we are devolving which is the single largest contributing factor to our contemporary problems.
