No, the choice to keep your pants zipped. Why is it that most pro lifers have an obvious disdain for women (see above) but never take the responsibility for getting those legs open in the first place? It's not like most gals run around begging guys to have sex and impregnate them so they can run off and have an abortion you know.

I believe otherwise that when fertilization takes place, life begins.
I will continue to make it my business until I die or the outcome of this insidious interpretation of law is reversed. Just as you will make it your business to support your position.
So you believe in the right to life, until born.
We seriously get the hypocrisy.

Start packing. Blame the woman, you know it's up to her to "keep her legs closed" as you stated. Then it's up to her to make the decision about her life, her body.

Exactly!

And furthermore, why is it the women's responsibility to "keep her legs closed" to prevent a pregnancy, but not her responsibility to make the best decision for herself should she become pregnant? If it's her responsibility to prevent pregnancy, then it's her responsibility to deal with it, or else that would be a ginormous double standard.

I wonder how many Pro-Lifers have gone out and adopted unwanted children. I bet not many.

If we ban abortion, then we must also ban in-vitro fertilization.

In-vitro fertilization DELIBERATLY produces embryos that will never be brought to term. The embryos that are not used are frozen forever or eventually flushed down the drain. Following the reasoning put forth by the pro-lifers, this is murder.

Actually, using in-vitro is worse than abortions. Abortions usually happen because of a mistake. Using in-vitro is a deliberate act that results in the death of any unused ebryos.........or should I say BABIES.

Do you pro-lifers out there condone killing 10 babies so you can get one?

they should lose their tax exempt status not because they are on the side of "life" but because they are involving themselves in politics. separation of church and state.

You need to read the constitution. Everyone has the right to a certain degree of privacy. That degree is the context of our disagreement. I believe your privacy ends when you plan on killing an innocent life instead of protecting it. You are forcing your morality of death over life on an innocent child when you choose abortion.

Men bear as much responsibility as women in the creation of life. However you keep saying it is the women's right to choose to an abortion and no one else should have any say in that choice. If that is the case, they have the final say on whether or not they become impregnated. Not including all the rape and incest examples your side likes to throw around. The hypocrisy of your argument is exposed.
