Subject: RE: BS: The God Delusion 2010
Even educated people occasionally require clarification from someone who writes gobbledegook. In fact, I believe it's a mark of good education so to do.

"but people of other convictions are entitled to campaign provided it is done lawfully"

True enough. But I do object to their calling themselves "pro-life," as if people like me are somehow "anti-life." Of course, they can't really call themselves "anti-abortion," because everybody's anti-abortion anyway (at least I don't know of anyone who thinks it's a marvellous thing). Quite, let them campaign lawfully, but there is also a moral argument about them berating women who choose not to do things their way and about how their wishes, if fulfilled, would condemn thousands of women to deprivation and poverty, or suffering through back-street abortion. It's amazing how so many so-called pro-lifers also oppose contraception and good sex education.
