There is a guy, a lawyer, who is sued by a a women he had a one-night stand or something parental recognition. He is suing back because he says he had been tricked into paternity by a malicious women who had her own agenda. They say there is a growing number of cases like this, but it is the first time there is a lawsuit? I guess it would be interesting to wait for the result.
They said the mother only sued so that her kid can put a name on the father, but the court ruled more than that, and ordered child support which the father was not very happy with.
The kid seems ok according to the newspapers.

I do think its fascinating to see the effect of different cultures cosmologies on their perception of abortion, etc. I dont see anything wrong with the Japanese view, though I wonder at what point in pregnancy they believe the child gains a soul and should not be killed?

Here lies the difference, it is not really a soul. There is no self-conscience I think, for instance, more like a vital principal? Thus, it is not associate to any killing. And anyway, it is just back waiting.
