3: If you really think a Japanese author is writing some kind of author tract against \\\"religious fundies\\\" then you\\\'re incredibly ignorant and American-centric. I doubt the author would even know what you are referring too.

4: Exactly how do you think a divine goddess would feel about abortion? Have you ever really thought about it? Even if you believe that abortion should not be illegal, only the most callus or immature of individuals could think that abortion is a \\\'\\\'moral\\\'\\\' choice.

Sure, a woman has a right to choose when or if she will have children. But it\\\'s just as true that a mother should never kill her baby. How you reconcile and balance those two competing moral goods in a legal system is up for debate.

Abortion as a moral question however is quite clear. Abortion is always, in every instance, a selfish act. Just as giving birth is always a selfless act. Nor is this perception of abortion as evil limited to Southern Baptists. This is consistent with the perception of at least 70% of the American public. (Yes, a lot of pro-choice people think abortion is morally wrong).

Granted, Danver\\\'s treatment of the subject was rather harsh and I thought a bit over the top. But it wasn\\\'t about preaching against the evils of abortion, it was about Urd\\\'s character development as she dealt with her feelings of being an \\\"unwanted\\\" and \\\"unplanned\\\" child.

5: It\\\'s clear you love the AMG manga. Good for you. How Danver\\\'s creation of an AU version of that manga harms your enjoyment I do not understand. Nor do I mind your pointing me to the water. It\\\'s just your insistence that I can enjoy only the water you approve of with no other flavor of beverage allowed is rather annoying.

PS: If you are looking for a work with the \\\"magic\\\" of AhMyGoddess I suggest you try some other contemporary works such as MaisonIkkoku. I think you would quite enjoy it.
