I just noticed we changed dishwasher product for a 7th generation one and I read the label (you know- I'm one of those cerealbox-shampoolabels compulsive readers) and I read this:
"The company derives its name from the Great Law of the Iroquois that states, "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations." Every time you use a Seventh Generation product you are making a difference by saving natural resources, reducing pollution, keeping toxic chemicals out of the environment and making the world a safer place for this and the next seven generations."
I thought that was very neat.
Very neat. :)
I've seen those kind of sentence every here and there, and I really love them :)
It's sound wisdom.
And so many people use it every day. For many reasons, and many causes...
Now I was thinking about it in regard of abortion.
Not only are we treating the earth like ours, but we are destroying part of the next generation.
What are the consequences of abortion on 7 generations?

I'm one of those shampoo bottle readers too!
I agree- we're not taking care of the next generation when we decide to abort them because we don't think they're usefull. Makes a person wonder what's next.
As I look around the school I teach I wonder about those children who aren't there because they were killed before they were born. What would they have contributed?
