My father was a writer. He wrote all of his life, inflicting upon many of us his novels, plays, articles, essays, and self-help books. Some were marvelous; some merely well-intentioned. But of all the things he wrote, his journal is his legacy: by turns wise and bewildering, it neared 1,100 type-written pages when he died in 2010. Although perused many times, this is the first time it will be read - cover to cover, page after page.

Selective Interpretation
When talking of respect for life, only abortion and euthanasia were seen as wrong. Death in war and by starvation were not mentioned, and so maybe it is having a choice that is the crime.
