[Peace-discuss] AWARE & abortion

[C. G. Estabrook]

As Mort knows well but refuses to admit, my objections to abortion are ethical 
and philosophical, not theological.  My objections would remain the same even if 
the American RC bishops should collectively slap themselves on the head and say 
"D'oh! We approve of abortion..."

If per impossibile Mort were interested in considering what those objections 
are, he could see (in addition to things I've written) e.g.

Most who have attended AWARE meetings know that on many occasions, AWARE has provided support for worthy  movements or organizations that have not been directly tied to war and antiracism. The only reason Carl opposes this now is that the word "abortion" has appeared, an issue he is theologically hung up on.
