It wouldn't change a thing. In fact, I would (regardless of my spiritual or intellectual concerns) be supportive of my friend. Having an abortion is a deeply personal and scarring experience and your friend was under no obligation or duty to have to say anything about it. Her not telling you is certainly not an indication of the strength or value of your friendship ... she has a right to keep something like that to herself and she was just not ready to tell you in the first place.
Mmmm. . . yeah, I think what I was looking for was feelings involved. It wasn't a judgement thing - obviously we can never place ourselves in other person's shoes (epistemological issues included).
Would how you view that person change? This was someone I hadn't seen in years - so it's not the hiding. I think I felt. . . something, but had problems putting it into words. Not repulsed or judgemental. It was a non-polarized feeling. But I still can't catch what it was, only its shadow.
