in order: 3., 1. and 2. equal, 5., 4.

choosing the sex of your baby seems very shallow to me, a child is not a consumer item

tobacco advertising and breast implants - although people are supposedly free to make up their own minds, there are a lot of very impressionable people out there.
both the above involve a huge amount of deception to make them popular - and both are unattractive

i think abortion is like a necessary evil - (ideally it should be very rare if people took appropriate precautions). i don't know if a fetus is a person or not, but i do know that being forced to have a baby can be very harmful

why is homosexuality immoral or harmful?? anything done between consenting adults in private is none of my business

i didn't say any and all sexual perversions.
i don't think homosexuality is a perversion - you may not agree with me and you may be right for all i know, but it is my opinion that's all

Hi Maggie.

So choosing the sex of a baby is shallow and killing an unborn one is not murder?

Why is tobacco advertising more immoral than Gay and lesbians?

wake up call - my opinion:
unwanted pregancies are much more complex than choosing to have a child

homosexuality is not any more life-threatening than heterosexuality

nonson:
i 'fail at being human'
thanks - i'm beginning to think that's a complement coming from you

The question was not of complexity but immoral.
