Yes, just what is this "science" Leslee Unruh speaks of? Why the abortion task force report which excluded evidence and testimony that didn't fit with the authors' one-sided views.

Very scientific.

I love hearing pro-abortion fanatics talk about science. "Um, I don't know when life begins. It's all mysterious and magical." Of course, it generally comes from the folks who think they evolved from fish after some gigantic ka-boom.

They're the same types who made it illegal to break the egg of an eagle because everybody knows what's happening inside that egg and that in a short time, a tiny eagle will emerge. Yet, they can't seem to figure out the mystery of human life, so it's completely fine to remove that baby limb by limb. It's even OK with them if a mother has carried her baby full-term and then she decides to kill her child. No big deal. Just give the baby's feet a tug, pull him or her out until only his or her little head remains in the birth canal, punch a hole in his/her nearly fully born skull, and suck his/her brain out with a vaccuum. I wonder why they have to suck the brain out of a boy or girl who isn't "really" alive yet.

Just think, in the latter procedure, two inches more, and mom would have to come up with a name for that thing that can't be scientifically defined by the socially enlightened.

You trust the science that tells you a fetus is a person, but you don't trust the science behind evolution and the big bang.

That's because one set of science fits nicely with your fundamentalist world-view, while the other directly contradicts it.

So the real gauge here is your own faith. Your opinion on abortion has nothing to do with science. Just like your opinion on evolution and the big bang has nothing to do with science. Can you admit that?

9:12 - Science has proven that a fetus is a human person, not a bug, a bat, or a blob of tissue. On the other hand, evolution has not been proven and never will be.

The real gauge here is your opinion, which also cannot be proven. You HAVE proven a remarkable lack of intelligence though.

Wrong. It hasn't proven it. That's your interpretation of the science. That's your theory. Nothing more.

But I'm not going to go any further into it with you, because every keystroke I write to you is a further waste of my life.

"On the other hand, evolution has not been proven and never will be."

This is why you shouldn't engage in debate with fundamentalists. Their minds have been made up before the conversation even began.

A note from Benedict Ar... Sorry. A note from Stan Adelstein why he thinks you should vote Democrat this year.

(Click on letter to enlarge) And while it may not be printed at taxpayer expense, I don't see a disclaimer, either. When they hold the special session (supposedly at the end of November) , since he's left them already, I think his colleagues should expel him from the caucus. Sure. At that point it's only going to be symbolic. But since he's already said he's running again in the near future, sometimes symbolism is enough.

It's about health, not potential promiscuity.

As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on...
