Not you. I was referring to the statistics regarding the religious affiliation of most women who abort, 70% either Catholic or Protestant. I don't find this a mere coincidence.
Or a mere lie -- they obviously do not believe in their religions but anyone can claim to be something when it's convenient to do so. Or church is nothing more than some fun social club to belong in. A nice setting for a wedding. Obviously they don't share the beliefs.

Why would it be 'convenient' to report your Catholic or Protestant affiliation when aborting a fetus? Logic would deem quite the opposite.
You cannot make assumptions like these based upon statistical fact... These women could in fact strongly believe in their religion. These women could in fact attend Church each week. These women could in fact believe that abstinence is most effective. These women could in fact believe contraception and abortion are wrong.
70% is a pretty high figure, and it's somewhat lame to attempt to spin the numbers and story--bottom line is, **** happens, this is often the reality of the situation (religious and non-religious women get pregnant, sometimes unintentionally), and, we as a society (made up of individuals practicing different religions and holding different beliefs), can either agree to be proactive about the situation and compromise to some degree, or, continue to spin the wheels and go nowhere as a result.
How about you worry about yourself and leave others to do the same.
You don't get to decide what I do with my body.
A fetus has no rights.
And abortion being legal in the US does not meet the definition of murder.
I really don't care if it's beyond your comprehension.
It's not my concern, just as my choices with my body are not your concern.
You need a little more of a relationship with biology.
There is no heartbeat with a blastocyte, zygote or fetus before 8 weeks.
I'd love to see some real and honest scientifically based links showing how 5 month old fetii can live outside of the womb without extensive life support systems.
I can wait a bit for your proof.
Just curious, are you Christian? Because if I am arguing with someone who is not Christian then arguing to protect life is pointless. I do not believe we as humans should have the right to take any life at any stage in the process. Only God should know or control when a life is ended at any stage. You are correct in that at 5 months a baby outside the womb cannot live without help, but God created talented doctors and inventions to do just that, save a life. I am glad doctors do save lives every day, young or old. It saddens me when I see someone have such contempt for protecting life. I do not understand how people can have such contempt for protecting a life as if it is not important. Do you have children? If you do not, maybe someday if you want children you might think differently. Aren't you glad that your mom chose life for you?
