VA Natives: Help?

Soo... yeah, I'm still thinking on the car thing, and leaning heavily towards buying this new car, but I need some info. What exactly is involved in transferring ownership of a vehicle in virginia? The stuff on the DMV's site seems ridiculously complicated... getting it titled, paying a fee for buying it in the first place, getting it insured, getting it registered, some stuff about local registration and possibly taxation requirements too... it kind of lost me. Anyone want to go over this all step by step for me? *hopeful look*

I'm not even sure what all the fees are that I'd end up having to pay to do this, and I kind of need to know that to determine cost-benefit of buying this car.

Abortion

I just heard an interesting interpretation of why abortion is one of the sociopolitical issues most important to many christian denominations. I'm not passing judgment on it either way just yet, but the theory does seem to make a certain degree of sense.

It was said that the issue all comes down to Jesus. There are stories in the new testament about the conception of Jesus, about his presence in Mary's womb being recognized by John in his womb. For Christians, Jesus was alive and holy long before his actual birth in the stable. And abortion seems equivalent with the actions of King Herod, plotting to kill the promised child when he was yet in the womb unborn.

For Catholics especially (I was raised Catholic, so this analysis is the most easy for me to make) this would apply, since it is easily extended to the immaculate conception of Mary as well... conceived without sin, rather than born without it. The distinction is interesting, though I note the Catholic Encyclopedia entry on the Immaculate Conception defines conception as the moment the soul enters the body, not the moment the egg is fertilized, it is not scientific conception that is apparently being referred to, though the distinction blurs in the minds of most people. Especially if one decides that the soul enters the body at the moment of physical conception, which seems to be the current prevailing view among Catholics (and I believe the one supported by the Church itself.)

Not certain if this theory is right or not, but it's very thought-provoking for me. May have to explore this line of thinking later.
