<DIV dir=ltr>Your concern about women aborting babies based on sexual orientation, race, and / or gender sets up a false dilemma. Pro-<SPAN id=misspell-4 class=mark>choicers</SPAN> tend not to discriminate against people based on those listed traits and thus are much less likely to abort due to them. Pro-lifers who tend to more conservative and are more likely to discriminate in society based on gay, race, gender, religion, etc. will not abort for any reason. <BR><BR>And my point that is backed by statistical fact is that women who are self-described 'pro-life', and thus are against abortions for themselves and others, are roughly 9 times less likely to be faced themselves with the decision of choosing (even though they believe that they should have no choice in the matter) to carry a <SPAN id=misspell-5 class=mark>Down's</SPAN> Syndrome pregnancy to full term. If women have a 9x factor less of having a <SPAN id=misspell-6
class=mark>Down's</SPAN> pregnancy by being self-described 'pro-life', then it gives pause for thought.<BR><BR>-Scott<BR><BR>

<DIV><SPAN>As to your theory, Scott. I think that a pro-life woman is more like to have a baby with <SPAN id=yiv1731453746ecxmisspell-2 class=yiv1731453746mark><SPAN id=misspell-9 class=mark>Down's</SPAN></SPAN> because a pro-choice woman would be far more likely to abort it.

<DIV dir=ltr>I loved the stats Dale posted on his site. For instance, he had polling data that showed with some kooky accounting that 'The majority of Americans are pro-life'. Shortly thereafter, he had a post titled 'Search and Destroy' which showed that 92% of <SPAN id=yiv1731453746ecxmisspell-4 class=yiv1731453746mark><SPAN id=misspell-11 class=mark>Down's</SPAN></SPAN> Syndrome pregnancies are aborted. So let's say that both of these statistics are roughly accurate, but for crunching numbers more quickly let's say:<BR>
<UL>
<LI>50% of American women are pro-life and the other 50% are pro-choice<BR></LI>
