It's fun to throw their own religion back at them.

Nope, things that matter to me I change. I'm simply telling you to get over it.

Abortion is legal and in all honesty, another women abortion is none of my business.

No, we live in a representative republic.
The USSC has already ruled that the right to privacy covers medical decisions.

I see you had no response for the rest of my post.

How do you think we should handle the 1 million extra people that would be born every year?
You remind me of the gloom and doom prophet Paul Ehrlich population bomb that was totally debunked.

Why shouldn't mistakes come with punishment? We jail people for making the mistake of breaking the law, don't we? Why is it considered punishment for the mother to accept responsiblity but it isn't punishment for the unborn to have their life terminated?

We still have the right to seek changes to laws we disagree with, don't we?

How can I take anything you say seriously if you cant even differentiate between a democracy and a republic, and dont know which one the US is?
Also, the irony of you not owning a uterus, but wanting to control those that do own one is almost unbearable.
