actually what YOU are saying is quite silly. In very general terms we DO support what we fail to restrict or penalise and this is even more true in openly controversial issues. In minor issues you are partly correct but in major over-arching issues you are very wrong. -----Original Message----- From: profox-boun...@leafe.com [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Ricardo Aráoz Sent: Friday, 9 April 2010 8:03 AM To: ProFox Email List Subject: Re: [OT] You picked a fine time to lead us... geoff wrote: > Your post reeks of superiority and in fact, dimwittedness.

And you must surely admit there are catholics in the *left*, for example all the christian democracy parties all over Europe. Yet you support the following syllogism : "not all A are B, and not all B are A therefore A equals B" or "not every*left* is in favour of non penalizing abortion and not every non penalizer is from the *left* therefore left=abortion". Man! That IS good use of logic. I guess our Jesuit friends here will be having a stroke at such stupidity. > And a failure to penalise a act such as abortion IS not > dissimilar to support.

Can you perceive the difference? BTW you should be more concerned about people's souls than about their bodies. I think you are not paying enough attention to the spirit. > -----Original Message----- > From: profox-boun...@leafe.com [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf > Of Ricardo Aráoz > Sent: Friday, 9 April 2010 6:03 AM > To: ProFox Email List > Subject: Re: [OT] You picked a fine time to lead us... > > Leland F.
