Then you make assertions about the people you 'debate' with.

I'm not pro-abortion. I'm pro-woman. Abortion is a tough decision with serious emotional reprecussions... But it is just that, a decision. A personal ethical and moral decision.
Yeah, okay. You're not pro-abortion, you're pro-woman? And I don't "crap", I "poop."

You have already stated, repeatedly, that you are FOR a woman choosing to end the life of her unborn baby - for whatever reason.

If you're so "pro-woman"...
Why not be FOR empowering women to not get pregnant in the first place?
Why not be FOR educating people who want to have sex so that they don't get pregnant?
Why not be FOR helping people be accountable for their behavior, and face the consequences of it - something everyone really does have to do all their lives?
Why not be FOR holding men accountable for their sexual activities?
Why not be FOR the millions of women who cannot have babies of their own, and want to adopt?
Why not be FOR educating women who are thinking about having an abortion, rather than shoving them through the abortion mill before they can really ponder and mull over the abortion information they've been given?
Why not be FOR parental notification, so that teenage girls don't have their reproductive organs mutilated by over-zealous abortion doctors?

Funny thing is, I'm pro-woman too. I just go about it different. I'm pro-woman in that...
- I love and am committed to my wife of nearly 25 years.
- I have continued to take personal responsibility for the 3 times I got my wife pregnant - and have continued to be present and responsible for our children, even the two that are adults.
- We have TOGETHER decided on birth control for all these years - the final contraceptive measure being one I took.
- I am NOT willing to LIE to people and say that legal abortion is either safe, or moral.


That's a FAR CRY from standing on a street-corner, holding up a sign, and screaming, "Let them get their abortions!!!!"
