I'm wondering how many of those who are pro-life (you support abortion being banned in most cases) also feel that the pill and plan B should be banned?

Please do not vote in this poll if you are pro-choice.

Since Plan B prevents a fertilized egg from attaching to the uterine wall, it is tantamount to an abortifacient. If you believe life begins at conception, there's no way Plan B can be acceptable to you.

Against.

I believe life begins at implantation. If it does not attach to the uterine wall, it has no chance of developing into a born human.

If the embryo doesn't complete any one of many stages of development, it won't develop into a born human.

On what basis do you believe life begins at implantation and not, say, onset of heartbeat, independent breathing, establishment of nervous system, cognitive rationalization, tooth formation, or any number of the dozens of arbitrary stages of development? Where's the science behind that? Is the embryo somehow nonliving in the hours before implantation? Or is it another species? Provide that scientific data that allows you to assign life at that one arbitrary point down the continuum.

EEE - I'm not going to answer this in detail. But what I will say is that Plan B allows many abortions to be avoided. Banning Plan B would result in a dramatic increase in abortions -even if abortion was also banned.

Dream on. Your poll is getting trolled by all your far-left buddies. That's proven by the lack of comments.

Anti-choicers don't want to hear anyone else's opinion.
This is a public message board.
Too bad, too sad.
