    "Note I said 'criminal' not 'burden'. There's a big difference between a person having mental/physical problems that require some form of governmental/institutional help & a criminal who preys on other people. That is what we call a 'nuance'."

    Ok then, just the babies of criminals then...why just the rapists? Why not ALL of them, if they are so predispositioned to be criminals?

    "By the way, I note you haven't commented on my & another poster's assertion that all the poor aborted fetuses go to heaven anyway, so what's the big deal?"

    Actually I did - I said the yes they go to heaven but does that mean that they don't deserve a chance at a life?

    "Here's another one for you to ponder: Why should a woman who has been assaulted in a manner that causes the assaulter to serve a long prison sentence have to carry the result of the assault for 9 months and in doing so possibly damage her long-term health or even suffer a complication that results in her death?"

    Hummm...possibly damage her long-term health or suffer complications versus definitely killing a viable human being. Not much to ponder here.
