Either you can subscribe to the American creed which says that God endowed us with our rights, or you can subscribe to the abortion creed which says that those rights are the consequences of our mother's will.     Topics: Abortion How does it secure the blessings of liberty to our posterity, to those generations yet unborn, to kill them, aborting them in the womb?     Topics: Abortion, Liberty I frankly don't care if you agree with my stand on abortion.
