I said MULTIPLE times in my post that I want to eliminate the NEED for abortions. Sorry if your reading comprehension is bad.
Easy now, carl has a point even if it is a bit pedantic. I think he's just pointing out your ethnocentrism. You believe that people think they NEED to kill babies, but in reality sometimes there is a justified medical reason to have an abortion.
You may not have intended to say it but you are basically wanting to suppress people's thoughts, or the fancy new word I just learned, proselytize them. Convert them to your beliefs.
BS....Eliminating the need for an abortion is just that....eliminating the need.
I know that isn't going to eliminate every single abortion. I can concede that in the chance there is a threat to the life of the mother, fine...have an abortion. If you have to choose, I am fine if the woman and the doctor decide to save the life of the mother over the child.
That is an extremely small percentage of abortions in this country though. Look at all the rest, figure out why they choose abortions and work with women's groups to eliminate that need for an abortion. That can be through:
a) contraceptives
b) sex education that results in girls being smarter about sex and more people waiting to have sex till they can support a child.
c) holding boys/men accountable to support a child they help create. FYI....I am willing to go one hell of a long ways with this one.
d) education and counseling on adoption options while supporting the mother through the process.
Not one thing that I have said in this thread or listed in this post points to me wanting to control women's bodies.
