4FelineHouse....You have spoken well and I couldn't agree more. There are just some areas I guess where it is not "black and white." One that readily comes to mind is the abortion issue. Even those who feel abortion is wrong because life begins at conception (I am one) have some trouble with that particular life if it is a result of a rape. (Hypocrisy? Yes, and I guess I am guilty of it in this case). Then again there is the capital punishment issue (boy can that get heated). I just thought the whole ANDI issue would be an interesting topic for the Forum to discuss because we all love animals and hate to see them used in the lab, but we love our own lives too and have benefitted from animal testing. It is a subject that we, as mortals, have struggled with and will continue to struggle with but dialog must go on, lest we get into areas down the road where we have crossed the line (and that line gets more blurred every day).
