Can't wait to hear about it. Pretty sweet. Shaunna (not to be confused with Shaunna my wife for any not "in the know"), I hear what you're saying. I didn't personally look at it that way myself, but now I can see where you're coming from. My first reaction was to see it asking a question of, "hey you pro-life people (who are stereotypically anti-gay as well), would you still be pro-life if this kiddo turned out gay?" Regardless of which way we read it, it was definitely one of those good attention getters. I'm with both of you on this...our bodies aren't who we REALLY are. Even if they were, it's not up to us as to who lives and who dies, which begs a good question. <em>Who is it up to?</em> Rick, that’s both strange and cool that such a convo came up Monday night.

And the answer is no. Every single person has a purpose in life and I'm not the one that decides who lives and who dies.

Gay, disabled, blind, deaf, whatever...it's just the container not the person...right?
