yes it does but of course it doesn't apply to the abortion debate. There are strong feelings on both sides but too often it is seen as a black/white issue while in truth, it's shades of gray. Both sides can produce "science" to support their view while in truth, we cannot say for sure the exact moment when life begins. There are however some points that seem clear...we must do all we can to avoid unwanted pregnancies. That means education, access to health care, and changing some basic mores of society. Also, we must learn to deal with pregnancies once they occur...that means increased adoptions and shared responsibilities not to mention health care for mother and child, increased accessability to drug rehabs, parenting skills and ways to encourage family units. In a land where corporations advertise padded bras for 8 year old girls, mothers encourage young daughters to participate in beauty contests wearing make-up and sexually suggestive outfits and fathers pass on the desirability to be a "stud" to their sons, it is little wonder that we abort about 1,200,000 a year.
