Judy McNamara (Nov. 15, Letters) has "never ... heard anyone say they are 'pro-abortion.'" No wonder, for the media always use the more "polite" pro-choice. But Webster defines pro-choice as "favoring legalized abortion," which sounds about as pro-abortion as one can get.

Judy goes on to say that the "right to choose is opposed by the many who choose church dogma over free thought." What is this "free thought" I'm supposed to go for? Is it her thought? What makes that better than the thought of the Creator, "Thou shalt not kill"? Here is a quote to add to Judy's collection: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." --Declaration of Independence I'm with Judy on feeding the hungry, fighting for human rights (including those of the unborn), stopping violence (such as ripping babies apart), and halting child abuse, which definitely includes abortion.
