I am incredulously horrified. I don't know how else to say it. Tonight, on national news (I should no better), I am informed that in some states the procedure known as partial birth abortions is legal. For those of you with weak stomaches, may I suggest you exit NOW.....

I am referring to the state of Nebraska, in particular, were a previous ruling was overturned by the Supreme Court, subsequently allowing this procedure to be upheld. For those of you who are not familiar with this "medical procedure", I will tell you (with the least amount of detail possible) that the feet, legs and buttocks are delivered, then the skull is crushed while still inside the mother. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE MURDER.

Aside from all the personal reasons why a woman may choose to terminate her pregnancy, I am the first to acknowledge that there are medical circumstances which require an abortion within the first trimester, such as the health/life of the mother is at risk, and perhaps rape. Additionally, aside from my personal spiritual beliefs, I have always felt that the decision should rest between mother and her own Higher Power.

"Revenge is mine said the Lord". A portion of that quote is being borrowed from the thread, The Next To Die In Texas. I use it here because I am particularly interested in what the participants of that thread, feel about the above mentioned.

Pushing the limit, or what? I want to know what you people think, regardless of whether or not you are Pro Choice or Pro Life. I consider myself to be a little of both.

Many thanks. m
