But let's talk about government subsidies, since you think you have an argument. Theoretically, we give assistance because the person doesn't have enough to survive. Let's say when you subtract food and living expenses from their income, they're in the negative. So government subsidies shouldn't provide them any extra money, it just keeps them from starving. I know in practice that's not how it works (most of my neighbors are on welfare) but this is a much more sensitive issue since underfunding people causes people to go hungry. Underfunding PP causes no one to go hungry.

But why don't you support cutting government funding to PP? If the government wants to support contraception, they can fund an entity that also doesn't do abortions.
You just refuse to see the truth.

Why would I want to cut funding to PP.....they provide much needed services for women.....and men.

And.........as far as I am concerned, it would be just fine if government did subsidize abortion with taxpayer money.

I can't pick and choose what my tax dollars pay for.....what makes you so special?

What you can do is pick and choose what programs you support or oppose and try to get more or less funding for them. That's just what opponents and supporters of pp do.

This should bother you.

(5)”And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. (6)But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. (7)And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. (8)Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. – Matthew 6.5-8 NASB
Your god is not happy with you making a spectacle of yourselves.....cheapening the act of prayer.

He wants you to pray in private......but then....that would make it kinda hard for you to harrass those innocent women, wouldn't it?

Let us know when you start adopting 13-year old kids with emotional/drug/medical problems out of the foster care system.

It would be interesting to see how many pro lifers adopt children and teens to care for them or are they society's problem after they are born?

Judging by the pro-gun threads their also carrying guns and are more than willing to shoot bad guys. Apparently "life" stops mattering when the fetus becomes threatening to them.

Interesting IMO. They don't want a woman having an abortion even if her life is threatened. But if they feel threatened by a guy coming in the window to steal their TV they're willing to blast away.
