We reach rational answers founded on what we believe to be true, and different people will reach different views in regard to all those things.

I'm not talking about reaching answers or views for ourselves. I'm talking about how to address a problem, in this case the problem of a high abortion rate. Whether you're pro-choice or anti-abortion, that's what we have to discuss. And I said discuss. An anti-abortionist singing an emotion-sodden anti-abortion song to an audience at a folk club is not part of any discussion. He's getting a hobby horse off his chest, that's all. As the Catholic church shows with its anti-abortion, pro-ignorance stance in Africa, preachifying moralistically about it, whether from a pulpit in the Church's case or a stage in the folkie's case, is solidly a part of the problem, not the solution. It's a free country, he can sing what he likes, we can walk out if we like, etc. I'll buy all that. But that doesn't make him any less wrong-headed. There are better ways.
