I have to wonder how many men would be willing to give up sex in the name of 'birth control'.


Bother not the cat. For they are sneaky and will piss on thy keyboard.

No actually all those DO require medical attention. Except maybe a fatal car accident. No need for a doctor there. There are entire communities that get by without doctors for pregnancies. The rate of death may be higher, but there are still perfectly normal children born. People have gone through entire pregnancies and didn't even know they were pregnant. Pregnancy may require a doctor, but most don't.

So if you are gonna call a home abortion comparable to an abortion in a doctors office, I'm not gonna go that far. But a baby born at home comes out of the same hole as one born in a hospital.

That goes back to the previous argument. Men don't have to worry about that. It's not fair, but that's just the way it is.

And I have already agreed that abortion has a place in society as public safety. I really don't know what else there is that I can say.

My belief as I have stated is to preserve lives. And I have also stated that the life of the mother is more important than the "ZEF". But I simply feel that "choice" is too weak a reason to lean on for abortions. I place a higher importance on the life of the "ZEF" than "choice".
