Mariam was studying ethics in relation to the issue of abortion.
She told the Rabbi, "It is clear in the ethical field that the father has the responsibility in his role as father and protector of the child to . . ."
Rabbi Jesus answered, "Accept the law of life above the law of death."
Mariam pondered thereafter. How hard it is for a father who wishes to acknowledge his unborn child, and the mother chooses abortion.
Let us all consider well that the act of love is not a light matter, neither sport nor fleeting amusement. The act of love transmits life, and should be respected as such.
