Men Abortion and Choice

[DanaC]

I like to think of "the consolation of philosophy" at times like this.

You know, that was one of the texts that got translated into Old English, during King Alfred's reign. In fact, the preface to the English edition is alleged to be Alfred's own. The translator did make some minor alterations....to soften its pagan edges. Alfred himself apparently found great solace in it, when he was at his lowest ebb in the marshes, and the Vikings overunning Wessex itself.
