<body>You're a good man Mr. Crabtree. Somewhat coy, but a pleasant fellow all in all. My skin is actually very thick, calloused through years and years of interactions with everyday people just like you and me. I would hope, won't hold my breath however, that in the future if you have questions about what I have posted that you just ask, rather than use nursery rhymes to attempt to belittle me.<BR>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Mr. Crabtree,<BR> <BR>I should have answered about my TV viewing habits. There isn't much on that grabs my interest but occasionally a new movie will come out with some clever monster in it....I like a good monster. I never watch sports except maybe the superbowl. I am not sure what Bravo is (gambling channel?) but I don't watch that, nor do I know what O2 is but as it came from you it is probably a children's channel huh? Do you believe in the Easter bunny big guy? How about Santa? Not to spoil anything for you but they aren't real either.<BR> <BR>James<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Mr. Reynolds, I all it takes for you to start handing out epithets such as right wing nuts and unasked for lessons on "proper manly behavior" is to observe that the fetus recycling program you outlined in your previous post was unusual, I shudder to think what I might be treated to should I actually outline my thoughts on the subject in question. Suffice it to say that you have no clue as to my position on this matter and to take me to task based on your assumptions is absurd. Since you seem to be of a mind to educate, perhaps you could enlighten me as to your expertise in the matters of all things masculine? PHD in guy studies? Or was it just lots of ESPN. Please don't tell me it was Bravo & O2.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Gary and Tony,<BR> <BR>I really only got onto this thread because Tony was becoming a bit too hostile to others on the site and I felt it my duty to deflect his anger toward me. It is just a habit of mine to engage against unwarranted agression. I am older now, but my blood still boils. Now that I am in the middle of this with a couple of genuine right-wing nuts, I will try to entertain you with my thoughts.<BR> <BR>I am not sure of when the assignment of souls occurs during a childs development and by your tones I don't believe you have a clue. Spiritual leaders differ in their understandings also but the assignment of a particular soul to a child is widely used to explain why humans are what we are. I have read on the biological development and some on what spiritual leaders think and have come understanding that it isn't until late in pregnancy. Some spiritual leaders even think the assignment is some time after birth. My thought is that if the assignment of soul has not yet happened before an abortion then the assignment would occur at a later inception. Storks don't really bring babies Gary, that is just in the books you read. The biological evidence of the later assignment of the soul, to me, comes form the observation that ontogeny does repeat phylogeny. it would not make sense to give a human soul to something with gill slits or just a notochord.<BR> <BR>My practical stand on the issue of abortion is that it is something for women to figure out and for men to back them on their decision. It seems to me to be very unlikely that Tony is the nurturing person that he tries to portray to be concerning abortion. Most men, including myself are simply not very nurturing. What is more likely is that Tony wants man to dominate woman. He has expressed a non-nurturing attitude in volumes on this list and has also demonstrated a demeaning attitude toward women on this list. As a little guidance to Tony I would offer to him that a man doesn't and shouldn't feel the need to dominate a woman. it is unnecessary and counterproductive to a healthy life for both involved for a man to try and lord himself over women and it will usually end in a terminated relationship. I think a lot of men don't know how to handle their warrior self because they were not taught properly to begin with. Women are to be revered and <FONT>protected form physical harm by man. That is man's primary duty. The rest of life will take care of itself if you pick up on that. How many children do you think would be on this earth if there wasn't this basic exchange going on? A good example of this strategy comes from Christian</FONT> doctrine. Remember that the two most important men in the Christian religion were born without the influence of man but but both <FONT>Zecharia (sp) and Joseph took their manly chores and supported Elizabeth and Mary. Use this as an example and don't assert your manly selves into the realm that belongs to woman and God. Us men are the warriors and will always be hounded by this. When jesus was born what did man do? He killed all of the babes in the land to fulfill some awful destiny that is our curse. We need to keep a handle on this fellows.</FONT><BR> <BR>One thing we men can do to reduce unwanted pregnancies and so abortions is to find strict punishments for the men who cause such pregnancies. A good punishment might be...to paraphrase Tony... is to rip the genitals from the offending male, cut them to pieces and throw them in the trash.<BR> <BR>I would like to continue with your teachings on proper manly behavior but I must now go to work. Later gentlemen.<BR> <BR>James <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Tony,<BR> <BR>Since you want to speak for the unborn I shall also. I would bet that a fetus conceived at some totally inopportune moment in in a woman's life would rather come back at a later date when the mother could give her best to the child. I think it is far more appropriate for the woman in question to make the decision if the time was right.....not some right-winged nut job. I think a child would think the same thing.<BR> <BR>Your little argument about License versus Freedom is very tricky tony but stupid. Of course the definitions are different or there wouldn't be the two words but the freedom to give License is a freedom just the same. If you want to disallow the ability to give License then you are curtailing freedom. You probably got this little tidbit from a Carl Rove handout. It sounds as dumb assed as he is.<BR> <BR>James <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>
