Well how could it be, there was no birth control back then. We are a very different society now and this should be taken into consideration. There should be freedom of religion as long as you don't put your religious beliefs on others.

From the U.S. Federal Drug Administration:

Plan B ---

"It works mainly by stopping the release of an egg from the ovary. It may also work by preventing fertilization of an egg (the uniting of sperm with the egg) or by preventing attachment (implantation) to the womb (uterus)."

Birth Control: Medicines To Help You

Many have criticized the FDA for not eliminating the 'or prevent implantation' from the guide. I think that info may still be on Plan B packaging labels; maybe someone who uses it can check.

I know some recent research doesn't support the 'prevents implantation' claim. Still, I have no problem with someone who thinks Plan B can destroy a fertilized egg, given the 'scientific certainty' it doesn't is relatively new.

Not only that, but the RIGHT to bear arms IS backed up by the Constitution. So, I fully expect the government to provide everyone with firearms, and to force anti-gun groups to fund that regardless of their beliefs.

Get real. Government should stay out of personal lives...period. Wholesale abortion is murder which is against the law. Don't forget, abortion, over time, has probably led to more "expecting mothers" to die than we will ever know. Frankly, I do not believe that the Federal government should ever have anything to do with this issue. That is an issue that States should deal with. It is Federal government that has so far, far overstepped all authority given to them by the Constitution. So much of what Federal government has usurped is far over and above their authority and as per our Constitution is a States issue.
