I thought as much, Karen, as to why you would lock/delete a thread.

This was actually a healthy discussion, even if it did offer differing opinons on abortion and on the actions of the guy who started "Curves". I still commend him for putting his money into efforts that he feels are worthwhile. I would still stand by him, even if my opinons are different from his (which they are not, and why I posted what I did earlier, before the thread was deleted).
