This day I live, not
for me, but for you.
To end it all, would mean to you
nothing at all. Woe is me, I live.

Life

My favorite line, also the last, and I quote:  “Critics charge that the drug’s action amounts to an abortion, and they opposed making it available over the counter.”

Next, critics are going to argue that wearing a condom amounts to abortion and that they should not be available over the counter.

I’m sorry, but until there is a heartbeat, a being that can survive on it’s own, and a conscience will - there is no life.  Until all of those conditions are met, there is as much life in the womb as there is in a single celled organism.  That is my opinion and I am sticking to it.

If you want to disagree, fine.  But there are measurable quantities that can determine when life is present.  Accept the truth, swallow your opinion and allow people to make their own choices.  Unless of course, you want to start protesting cigarettes, drugs, alcohol, vehicles, guns, blades, or anything else that can kill a person, which is taking a life.

It’s all the same.
