Ken Montgomery, quoting Laura Creighton:
	  > Are males so radically different from females that understanding is
	  > impossible?
	Are men and women so similar that men can get pregnant?  Why would
	understanding justify coercion?

The answer to your questions are counter-questions.  To the first, Who
cares?  You haven't shown it is relevant.  To the second, Would men's
getting pregnant justify coercion in your view?  No, so stop waving a red
herring -- you yourself admit it is not relevant.

	I'm quite sure that the majority of--and let's call a spade a spade--
	anti-abortionists are men.

Wrongo, pal!  The majority of anti-abortionists are women.  Source:  Public
Opinion Magazine (a non-partisan polling research report).  I'll go find the
date of the issue if you want.  Another stupid argument runs into a fact,
and sinks.  Blup, blup blup!

I love it when a plan comes together!
