I guess we can be thankful that our own minds are not bursting with this burning need to exert totalitarian control on everyone, to adhere to our own dogma. It really is arrogant, to claim that one has all the answers and that their own philosophy is the only legitimate one.

It would seem that these fanatics have gotten the idea that they personally will be condemned to Hell, if they don't spend every bit of energy they have, trying to force all others to obey their demands. Minding one's own business, is a foreign concept to them.

Even foster home parents are only monetarily driven!

if you are pro birth seek out these kids,spend time with them , and show you really are glad they were born!NO MORE LIP SERVICE!
Tell that to my BIL and his wife who have taken care of foster kids for years, adopted 4 of them who have handicaps and are still taking foster care kids. They have 4 girls of their own.

Like how they say they are a women's healthcare provider, but actually do more abortions then pap smears.
No, they do not. About 14% of PP clients use abortion services. The rest do not.

The poster you are responding to said she used non-abortion services at PP.

Your "confusion" lies in your assumption that every woman who uses PP is there for an abortion.

Not when they age out. There are plenty of adoptable children in the foster care system, tons. Problem is that many people who want to adopt want babies.

And many aren't so great, there is a LOT of abuse.

Not long ago in my area a foster child was beaten to death by his foster parents.

The argument was that they were all simply doing it for the money.

It's the 2017-2018 Planned Parenthood Anuual report. On the Planned Parenthood website.

Here are the numbers. More abortions than pap smears, more abortions than breast care [whatever that means], more abortions than well-women visits. Page 25. Planned Parenthood lists it. Math 101

Yearly
Number of abortions: 332,757
Number of breast care: 296,310
Number of pap smears: 274,145
Number of well women visits: 216,722


Please explain how the number of abortions is not the HIGHEST out of all four numbers. I really want to know. It's. A. Number.

Are you saying that 332,757 is NOT the highest number in that list? That's really your position?
That 332,757 is lower than 274, 145? Lower than 296,310? Lower than 216,722?

I'm really shocked at the amount of cognitive dissonance, and the insistence that PP provides more well-women healthcare and pap smears (which are cancer screenings) than abortions.

Wherever you stand on the abortion issue, the TRUTH is that Planned Parenthood is an abortion clinic. The number prove that.
