Well if I may, the thing that gets me about certain pro-lifers is that they have no other solution to the problem of unwanted pregnancies other than "don't have sex". You'd think that if pro-lifers wanted to reduce unwanted pregnancies, and by association abortions, they'd be all for easy access to birth control.

Yet there are many out there against birth control and against Planned Parenthood, the latter being designed as a ready and affordable source of the former.

So by being against birth control, they want to control sex. That's what all these abstinence programs are about. Thinking they can control the sexuality of people.

Abstinence programs don't work. They've never worked. Humans want to have sex and will have sex, regardless of whether they're taught about it or not.

I too want a world with fewer abortions. I recognize that it's ending a potential life, and I'm sure that every woman who goes through it recognizes it as well.

I'm just for the most logical solution to the issue. Not demonizing sex and having birth control readily available and affordable.
