And yet here we are in a thread about their "good deeds" being reported on by "the press", and press specifically created to report on the works of Christians no less.
STD, birth rates, and abortion rates have been dropping since 2006, so you cant thank the ACA for this one.

Fertility rates have dropped an no one knows why, from the CDC to reproductive health studies, by an international team of researchers.
Some attribute the decline to STDs, others to low sperm count in males, along with the speculation that women (couples) are waiting longer to start their families, so age may be a factor, as well.
It will be years (roughly 25 years) before there is an understanding of the reasons behind the phenomenon. But for now, no one knows and speculations continue to grow.

Sure, abstinence is the only 100% effective way of preventing the spread of STDs, but to say that condoms, used correctly and consistently, do nothing at all to protect the user is a bald-faced lie.
I understand that you have an agenda, and I know the source of that agenda, but if you really want to decrease the number of abortions, you'd better face reality and start preaching not only abstinence, but the proper use of birth control. The fact is, not everyone is going to choose to abstain, and even people who save their virginity for the wedding night may want to reduce the chances of an unwanted pregnancy, yet still enjoy the physical and emotional closeness of sex.

The Unaffordable care act didn't get passed until what 2010, then the roll out a few years later. Thats like 7 years before the Unaffordable Care Act could have had any impact. I think you are giving credit that isn't due.
