Gotta agree with SLW. I live down here in SW Missouri, strong Southern Baptist country. Now, even if I am an atheist, I'm strongly prolife and accept that human life begins at conception. The product of human eggs and human sperm will NEVER grow into oak trees, or any other natural creatures. There! That's where I stand.
I voted for Akin in the primary. I'll vote for him in the general election. I wish he hadn't said what he did, but then I guess Hussein wishes he hadn't said he had visited 57 states - and still had one more to go. Or suggested that it was the government built that Mom and Pop grocery store on the corner.
There are no erasers for the spoken word. That's just the way it is. Live with it.
