It always comes back to the question of when human life begins, and this is very tied into people's religious beliefs. That is sensitive ground for any of us to be treading on.
Words do matter. Saying I and others haven't changed our opinion is NOT the same as saying we haven't learned anything. You may see this as negative feedback, but I see it as pragmatic. I don't enjoy banging my head against a brick wall... I'd rather circle around and look for a door.

How unfortunate that there is misunderstanding. I think my comment was very light and of few words. I had spent a considerable amount of time on this thread and your comment sounded like it was a waste of time (to me)
Yes, words are important, so is tone. If I were to start this post with "What are you talking about"? It would have a more aggressive tone.
End of subject for me, toodles
