1985 January/February issue Part 5

Why Not?

Some parents say, "We will not influence our children in making choices and decisions in matters of religion." Why not?
The ads will, the press will, the radio will, the movies will, the neighbors will, the politicians will, television will, the devil will.
(From the Manchester Union-Leader)

Fetal Pain

Joseph Sobran, a well-known author and columnist, wrote in the HumarfLi f e Review, Spring 1984, "A woman can say,'My stomach hurts.' She can't say,'My fetus hurts.' The fetus feels its own pain. It has its own identity, its own nervous system, and therefore its own separate claim on our attention. Some abortion advocates say we must balance the rights of the mother against those of the fetus; and even though they are up to no good when they say that, they have at least come to acknowledge that the fetus does have rights of its own. The very admission that two parties are involved is a significant victory for the opponents of abortion."
