I agree with Bush on at least one thing.
I think that life is created upon conception. To me a zygote is at the same level or above the level of living mammal. At best, in my mind, a zygote is at the level of a very (very, very) young child. Therefore, any and every abortion ever to have been carried out is an act of first degree murder, in my mind. I think that the unborn will eventually be the last group to be persecuted, and that scares me. The fact that people can assume that the mother has the right to kill off her child, just because the child hasn't come out of her yet, frightens me. I realize that a woman has many rights that were at one time stomped on by bigots, but the 'right' to kill is not a right. It is immoral in the biggest way. IMO. That being said, I'd never support any of the radical pro-lifers who use violence. It is truely disturbing to think that I share a belief with those who would kill the mother and the child as a statement to save the child's life.
I'll write more if I can think of them.
