What's wrong with this picture?

Lizard BreathI used to have a regular jousting match with my then sister in law who was pro life and I agreed with her that it was a shame that all children could not be brought into this world and cared for to adult hood but I mentioned to her that it would be prohibitively expensive since someone somewhere does have to pay for these "unwanted" children.After stripping me of my flesh with verbal whips only a born again christian can muster I would ask her if,since she was obviously commited to the idea of sanctity of life,she had a carefully constructed plan showing the way all the legal ethical and procedural means of accomplishing the views she so dearly held.
She had none.I told her that it seems to me that if someone with such a gift for discerning the nobility of such a venture had not any concrete means of helping these children then what was the point of protesting.Even today I see organizations of church groups hit the streets in vast droves and deplore the loss of potential in aborting human fetuses but not one comes to the stage and says this is how we go about it.I look around the streets of Edmonton here sometimes and see the poor people struggling to remove things from dumpsters in winter and it strikes me as odd that we as probably the second wealthiest nation on the planet can do nothing to change this small segment of society for the better. That we have people who would be willing to put even more onto the streets with no real hope of a "good" life free from endless concern of where to find warmth or food and water is something I cannot understand.We have children in orphanages today who are wards of the court until they are 18 and then they are booted out to make it on their own.None of these ever found a proper home.My wife was bounced through several homes from an early age until she found one that had some stability in it.Anyway I suppose that someone somewhere has the balls to put together a plan that is capable of improving the lot of human beings rather than just snapping at empty air in the hope of finding nourishment.[This message has been edited by sidelined, 11-11-2003]

Lizard BreathDo you have a plan on how to go about financing the whole of the venture to raise children who are unwanted into adults who have some hope for a decent life? I mean,it is all good and fine to have the feeling for unborn children but how about organizing a means of caring for them?
Put together an actual plan showing how to deal with as many possible contingencies as possible and try to get it off ground .If you are so concerned with the 'inhumanity' of abortions then help those children instead of joining the endless bantering of opinion that so many pro-lifers live for.
