Janet, I have stated that killing is wrong. I do not hear Chris saying killing is right. I would hope you are not saying that killing is correct or a matter of choice. I do respect your opinions and your right to opinions. I do not have to agree with them especially if they are against my moral convictions. I agree with you the ability and freedom to express opinions is important. There are limits and they are also necessary. janet paterson wrote: > At 05:22 1999/09/17 -0400, leo wrote: > >sorry chris, one must take a stand > >we must be a people of beliefs > >war is wrong, killing is wrong > >life is precious and death is precious > >any disrespect for life is wrong > >respectfully > >leo > > > >Chris van der Linden wrote: > > > >> Dear Brandon, > >> > >> These are quite dogmatic statements.
