Good point Marie.  Let's add another scenario.  Should the pro-life
physician have the right to end the life of a someone who is a major player
in the pro-abort establishment?  I can just hear the answer.  No, the major
player has already been born, making it wrong.  They want everything to be
relative in order to support their life, which they think is important.
Thank heavens we pro-lifers support all human life and don't think as they
do.
