Dear Dirk, You raise an excellent point about legality not equaling "right" or "justice." I was not trying to say that because abortion is legal, that it is "right" - rather that there are established avenues to challenge it. I too have found that comments on the list sometimes lean to the left, and I hope there would be room for voices from all parts of the political continuum. I responded to the issue in part because abortion opponents are often (but not always) the same opponents to stem cell research, but also b/c I was upset over Dr. Tiller's murder & I am truly sorry if my venting has helped create a situation where anyone looking for information would feel unwelcome. I hope that you will remain on the list, Dirk, but if not, I hope that you are easily able to find alternative sources of information for you & your wife. I think others could probably speak to this issue better than I can, but might the caregiver's list provide an alternate source of information sans politics?
