That's fine, if they don't approve of it, no one's going to force it down their throats.
Why force your religious beliefs on me? [this is not really directed towards YOU]
I don't find anything wrong with abortion.
As I keep saying, if you don't like abortion, don't have one.

Good thing, as I don't have much of an explanation for it. Of course, neither do the people that it was directed toward.

Yeah, seems pretty straight forward. Goes right past some people, though...

Abstinence has a failure rate. Jesus, anyone?

Seriously though, even abstinent women can get pregnant. Rape, basically.

WTF does that mean? It's ok to have unprotected sex b/c you CHOOSE to? Then go out an get an abortion when you turn up PREGGO?

Let me re-group...ok, so basically what you are saying is that due to the imperfection of humans, it's ok to use abortion as a form of birth contol?

Don't think so.

Birth control is 99% effective. Yeah...everyone who gets knocked up without being married or IS married and winds up with an unwanted pregnancyu claims to fall in that "1%".

Most people don't get off while driving.

Sex is a choice. Unprotected sex can and will lead to a pregnancy.

La-la land is where you think you have some right to decide whether OTHER women will be pregnant or not and to make that decision based upon whatever crazy beliefs you want.
That's r-e-a-l-l-y out there...

Why do some people think that women really care what others want them to do? Why waste all this time trying to convince others of a belief they do not share?
You control your life, I control mine...

Very true and this is why I'm pro-choice, why should the woman have to carry the rapist's child?
