Glenn says "I'm simply opposed to the taking of a human life"
I always wonder why you aren't anti-war! Not as simple as bringing a life into the world?

anyway-
I have a male friend who, in his youth, during the fifties, managed to get three young women pregnant out of wedlock. His well-off catholic family always came to the rescue to coerce/counsel/help the women into putting the children up for adoption. They also paid the lawyer to make the arrangements.
How does it work these days? Not many families can afford to make these arrangements?
My friend has struggled with depression during his life.(often for years at a time) He didn't stay in touch with the women. But he did complain about how controlling his father was.(?) He says he feels guilty about not fulfiling his parental duties. Lucky for everyone "the pill" came along. Many catholics use birth control I'm told. I wonder if Glenn is against birth control.
