- You'll probably get used to it, as I did. I've been called Heknius, Hellhairs,
- Hezzuciah and other things. Most often it doesn't mean anything at all.
- Of course being called "cruel" is something entirely different. :^)

- This seems to come up fairly often here: "Abortion providers" are often
- charged with not providing alternatives to abortion. I believe that even
- the most gung-ho and rabid abortionist will mention birth as an option,
- especially if the abortion is unwise. Often the same ob/gyn who might
- perform an abortion will assist in the birth. A whole bunch of
- "abortion providers" will provide for alternatives (such as, hard
- as it may be to believe, birth) while virtually none of the "carry
- to term should be the law of the land" types offer any alternative
- to carrying to term.
