You condemn a woman for being a ***** and then validate the feelings of the person who got her pregnant. Their both irresponsible for not having protected sex.

To the OP, it's probably because the most vocal pro-lifers have been conservative protestants and catholics. Look at Mother Teresa, for example. The Catholic Church has been the most vocal organized voice against abortion for decades, ahead of evangelicals even.
I'm not religious (or anti-religion). I'm pro-life.

Fanatical Pro-lifers are the biggest hypocrites on earth. I'm anti-abortion but it is my business only. If your pro-life don't have an abortion and don't go around killing people (i.e, the hypocrite part, your pro life but you commit murder).

Let me guess, you're a man Nice that you blame the woman in this thing called sex, where's the blame for the man? On to the OP, I don't believe all pro-lifers are hardcore religious people, I know some who aren't religious & some who are religious but not hard-core. Although I think I'd say that most hardcore religious people are pro-life.

They always blame the woman. Because you know women are the only ones who want sex.

3) free health care for children from low-income families

4) adoption reform
I'm assuming you think by proving free health care for children in low income families, their mothers will not abort them?

Just wondering what the rationale is behind that.
How will we pay for this "free" health care for the kiddies?

I don't think many people really believe/think that....I do not; even though SOME religious viewpoints seem extremist to me.

I'm glad you said most because I am very left politically and very opposed to abortion. I also am against war, torture, the death penalty and other forms of violence.
