"Describing them as extremists relieves you of the responsibility of a rational response"
It may be inflamatory use of language -- it was inflamatory enough when PMB referred inaccurately to the pro-life side of the debate as "extreme", to incite me to refute him. But it doesn't relieve anyone of the responsibility of a rational response -- which is what I gave him.
And "extreme" just may be an accurate description of the pro-choice side, as it is easily illustrated that there is no "there" there for them to be more extreme than -- they already have any abortion at any time for any reason--no restrictions. In a country where a majority of people do not believe that any abortion at any time for any reason is a reasonable ruling when science so clearly shows us that it is babies that are being killed, any abortion at any time for any reason is extremist.
