More random thoughts

My 14 year old daughter and I have been having some heart to heart talks lately, now that she has become an only child. (The perils of being the youngest of 6!). She is in 9th grade at the public high school. She is trying to figure out how one of her best friends can justify being both a vegan (on ethical grounds) and pro-choice. Reminds me of the clashing bumper stickers - "Save the whales" and "If you oppose abortion, don't have one". This car also stated "I'm pro-choice and I pray" and "Stop animal cruelty". How can people be so incongruous?
