I join my fellow Catholics in praying on this Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children. May God show us the way.

A meaningless gesture to a non-existent problem. Perfect.

A meaningless gesture to a non-existent problem. Perfect. Geez. I'm pro-choice, but this was obnoxious and harsh -- and very un-Georgetown.

Eighty years ago citizens of another nation remained silent as that nation went about killing some of its citizens. I am sure there are pro-life people on this board. Are you also going to remain silent?

Are you also going to remain silent? Ed, I respect your position and I understand what you're saying but, IMO, the equivalency you made isn't a very good one and both detracts from and clouds the point you're trying to make.

There is a perfect equivalency. In both cases innocent human beings are being killed while far too many, including those on Hoya Talk, are silent.

If only there were policy options in this country that would help to reduce the number of abortions. You know, things like universal health care and open access to contraception. It's really a shame that those things are impossible.

Guess the lack of posts on this thread by pro-lifers shows they are willing to cover the light with a bushel basket.
As for policy options, how about those that support adoption?

I'm glad that the tax bill that recently passed did not eliminate the adoption tax credit, as an early draft of the bill had proposed.
