Maybe there should be a bumper sticker:

Hi!
You missed my point - if you hadn't been born you wouldn't be hear reading
this or debating this topic - you would have been spared the decision as to
whether to be pro- Pro-creation - or pro-mandatory population control - that
was my point! You are a witness to life - so why not be a defender of it!
You are free to live - let others have that freedom - how do you know if the
unborn do not have rights you are not aware of?
Peace!
Angela

I agree Joe! We have to keep reaffirming our interconnectedness whenever
possible - We are interconnected for a reason - we may disagree on what that
reason is. But it can not be avoided - we are not separate and apart from
NATURE - as if we could exist without it! That should inspire us to care
more! I am working on a butterfly initiative to show children how
butterflies are interconnected to their habitats and are good indicators of
how well the ecosystem they inhabit is doing- this is a simple way to show
children how one species is dependent on its entire ecosystem and how they are
exquisitely interconnected the same way we are.
Peace!
Angela

No I was making a point that you could have two homosexual adults with
children as a family -- I did not mean to leave single families out of the
loop since I have two sisters who have raised their children on their own
for the most part (with my help and other family members help I might add)
and a sister who has 2 step children and no birth children of her own.
