Re: Pro-Choice vs Pro-Life = *EDIT*
"MB has given some very good definitions of the terms used by the pro-choice side of this issue. Ones that define the positions of the proponents, without being derogatory."
*************************************
--I disagree. She actually gave a really good description of how words are used as propaganda, IMHO. When calling others "no-choice", it's just as much a form of propaganda as using the words "pro-death" - using words over and over, till some people start to believe it's true. It's also used to bait and upset people and it will never win the other side over to your point of view, which I thought was the point of debate. The definitions she gave were based on her opinion and not on everyone's point of view.
--And then there are the anti-men viewpoints that I've sometimes seen exhibited by those in favor of legalized abortion. Plus I've read insinuations that those against legalized abortion don't care about women.
--Roe vs Wade was a Supreme Court decision. It had little to do with democracy. Those who think our votes actually have any power are incorrect, IMHO. The first time George W. got into office is a good indication of the level of corruption that exists.
Best wishes,
