Neither did Harry. Eisboch The "right to life" movement is fatally contaminated by the huge numbers of proponents who don't give a rat's ass about children born into horrific poverty, or about the hypocrisy of supporting fetuses and capital punishment, or the hypocrisy about starting wars of convenience that end up killing thousands, hundreds of thousands or even millions. I have no objection to honest people who oppose abortion on "moral grounds," but who do not try to restrict the availability of abortion to those who want one. If you don't want an abortion, don't get one. In the end, I believe the majority of those who oppose abortion are trying to control women. |

It might be what you BELIEVE but it's not necessarily a fact. So please don't try to pass off what gets manipulated in your mind as fact. You insult your readers by underestimating their intelligence. |

So, because you have taken the argument to it's shallowest level, you feel you have won and there is nothing more to discuss. How typically liberal. It's been proven that abstinence doesn't work. But, you still don't want contraceptive education or abortion. You just want more of something that doesn't work. How typically conservative. D'uh. Abstinence works, dummy. What doesn't work is the typically "church moral" *abstinence edu-ma-cat-shun.* What is needed in the public schools is a comprehensive sex and relationship education program that begins, probably, in the third or fourth grade with the simple facts of life and builds progressively so that by the time kids are in the sixth or seventh grade and really curious and experimenting sexually, they know precisely how to prevent pregnancies, how to prevent transmissions of STDs, and how to get along with others. Certainly, abstinence can be part of the teaching in such a program. The reality is that most kids are going to have sex by their early teens and the best thing society can do is make sure they are equipped to handle it responsibly. I get a kick out of the religious prigs who preach the bible and against premarital sex. The bible is full of premarital sex and lust and among the very young. Read the Song of Solomon, for starters. The prigs, of course, interpret the bible to preach what they want, but what they want is not necessarily the same as what their "good book" says or means. |

I should have said that abstinence EDUCATION doesn't work. One of the many reasons why it doesn't work is that most of those who offer it up are hypocritical assholes and the kids know it. Another is that sex is fun, and if practiced voluntarily and safely between teens of approximately the same age is harmless, certainly less harmful than the mind****ing that goes on in fundie churches and schools and religiously based home schooling, for example. |

Not to mention that 'God' is the biggest abortionist ever. Do you have any idea how many pregnancies naturally abort? |
