It is a public post. If you want to link to it, of course you may.
I'm not sure you should advertise it as thorough, or for that matter especially reasoned, though. I only addressed a handful of topics, and to tell the truth, while I do think my position on abortion is supported by rational arguments and reasons, I posted about it partly because I felt a very emotional response to some of what other people had said on the matter.
I am glad I succeeded in being polite. Thank you for this response. I doubt it's possible to avoid offending one another entirely -- I understand that there are people who find it odious for anyone to hold certain opinions of mine, and I probably feel the same about certain of theirs -- but I really have been trying to remember not to exacerbate it by being rude.
