Hi Again,

I strongly feel there would be no abortion [ or as Zurf has suggested very rare occasions}

if all woman on this planet took control of there own contraception. Why in heavens name do woman allow there men young or old to determine whether they become pregnant or not?
We would do more good for our kids if we honestly sat with them and showed them every possible way to avoid pregnancy. Sex is not going to go away , so equip them with as much information as possible.
Enlighten our Girls with the fact that"Men  or boys will tell them anything to have sex with them, whether love comes into the picture or not. This is the reality of most sexual encounters.
Woman i feel have a romantic view on lovemaking. The sex act to me is a very adult game, and children should not attempt to play the game. Emotionally I feel  they are not ready for the repercussions of same.
On this island  in my time we did not have contraception. { Hard to believe but true}Strangley enough less woman then became pregnant.  " fear "  because those who did ofton ended up in these place.

I was in one of these convents Once when i went to meet up with a friend who  had  had her baby. she was one of the lucky ones. She got out, and i in  my twenties went to meet her in Cork.  We were turfed out onto the street with out a bye or leave . My friend was a shadow of her former self, and became a chronic alcoholic for most of her life.
We travelled back by train to Dublin with a six week old baby, which my Mam wanted to take and rear for this girl.  But My lovely Mam was refused? by the same church that dictated God to us.
My friend and i were locked in a room after her baby was handed over for adoption.
once again we were turfed out without a bye or leave. This was holy catholic Ireland in 1970!
22 years later we were back in this same room to be reunited with this fine young Man. {One of the most Joyful days of my life}

Young girls were dammed one way or another, by the same church who created phedophile
rings around the world.

We now have everykind of contraception available, yet! the highest rate of unmarried Mothers and Babies.
Somehow while i feel this also is not the way to go.

Abortion in any light is the intention to kill another human being. Which  i believe cannot be accepted anywhere on the planet.

I know in a million years  you would not hurt me, i never met you,
but i just know this!   My reply to you was in total jest.   It also brings back to light how words here get lost in translation. I have a great sence of humour which is maybe lost here in the threads sometimes.

Yesterday i was at a friends daughters funeral. Yes! 25 years Helen was. to be married in june coming.  The simplicity of a blood clot took her young life in less then 24 hours.   Horrific sadness all round. Now why oh why do people want to hurt one another anywhere on this planet with words or otherwise..

Helens mass was conducted by her uncle a priest from a parish in  Montgomery Alabama.
As Helen was so young her mass was attended by so many young people. Her uncles sermon
to me was amazing, but i just knew sitting listeninig to him that all his wonderful words were just not being heard by our young folk. Mores the pity.

So ive come to the conclusion its an age thing to take on what people say sometimes. We use our brains like a sieve and extract what we need for the moment.

Although Im not Perfect Southpaw, honesty was and is my goal in life, I assure you i was not
offended by your post. I actually do think your a clever Man.
