Interesting Garinda. Wonder what others think. I dont like religion getting involved in politics. Religion is a personal thing because it has no scienticic basis. And just lately religion has stepped up further it attacks on the very sacrosanct cornerstone of British society: namely free speech.

As for my perceptions on abortion, maybe its just the people I come into contact with. I think the current law is about right. ie Pro Choice.

I have yet to meet a friend, relative or aquaintance in Hyndburn that is anti-abortion but clearly the religous fraternity, mostly, will be. Muslims and Catholics particularly I would guess.
