I was just wondering if this would be a possible solution...

Abortions are allowed. However, you have to pay a certain percent of your income to adoption agencies for the one year after you've had an abortion.

It was just an idea. I figured it should work alright, since those whom are getting abortions would, for a year, give up some of their money to adoption agencies, where there are children who were not aborted, but, are forced to remain family-less.

The only exceptions, I believe, would be if you NEEDED to have the abortion... as in it would cause you and/or the child to die should you actually give birth. Also, if you were raped -- and filed a report with the police that you were raped -- it should be wavered. Likewise if you are under the age of 16 and have no job.

... Would this be acceptable to both sides of the debaters?

Almost every Indian I've met has the last name Patel. And most of them have first names that are so hard to pronounce that they say: "Just call me Patel." I worked at a company where there were 32 Indians, 30 of whom were Patels. Why are there so many Patels?

When God banished Cain, Cain went to the Land of Nod, East of Eden. The very next line says, "And Cain's WIFE bore him a son, whom they named Enoch." If there were only three people on the face of the earth at that time, where did she come from and what is her name?
Catn and Able where Adam and Eve's sons. That makes four people. Cain slew Able. That leaves three. Where did Cain's wife come from?

Any information would be great.

There are lots of people who are black and proud, asian and proud, etc. These groups are able to form exclusive fraternities, sororities, clubs, you name it, and it is not frowned upon. However, if white people were to form such exclusive communities, then it would certainly cause some contraversy and be pegged as being racist. Why do you think there is this double standard?

if a family member visits from out of town, who should visit who, should the person from out of town drop by and see the family that lives there, or should the ones that live there go visit the out of state visitor at the home they are staying in? Just curious as to what is the proper way. Multiple family members live here, so the out of town visitors would have more than one house to visit.
