	I would urge people to refrain from name-calling it casts more
dispersion on the caller than anything else.

	Long ago Brad Templeton set the stakes in the abortion debate.
One of the issues was whether or not the fetus was 'human'.  The term 'human'
has since been separated more finely into being a member of a set
known as 'society'.  Am I to assume that to argue that a fetus is not
a 'member of society' is to grant that it is 'human'?  If so the question seems
to have become whether this certain class of humans has a right to life.
This is not a legal or medical question it is purely a moral question.
The answer cannot be assumed without regard to a moral system.
