My question to pro-choice supporters

Well whose fault is that? How much thought went into the possibility that a co-parent marriage or general relationship wouldn't work out? Why the fuck is it so hard to prevent this kind of thing to the point where we're not looking at a reality where at least half the country is in this kind of situation?

The kids get absolutely no fucking say in any of it. "No, I don't want that part of my identity ripped away from me! No, I don't want to have zero idea of family history for medical or other reason!" You decide to fuck, you live with the goddamn consequences, whatever preparations you take, and you agree ahead of time on contingencies if the unforeseen should happen regardless. What. the. fucking. SHIT. is so difficult about this amazingly simple concept? Even among non-theists who don't subscribe to the 'birth control is bad, but so is fornication, but that's not AS bad, so..." school of non-thought, though probably statistically less frequently. "If you and mom are getting a divorce, why did you have me? Why do you want to break apart our family?" Is there an answer for those? Even if there is, is it remotely acceptable?

I don't entirely lack empathy with you (see one of the below paragraphs)-I just put emotion completely aside when I consider how two (or more) sexual partners, whatever the depth of their relationship otherwise is, should approach the subject. Yes, the best laid plans can go off the rails but as I said, contingencies. Practical, logical people will not be afraid to discuss worst-case scenarios with one another and if they are, that person probably isn't 'the one'. I'm sure nothing kills the mood like the discussion of a binding legal contract but even a one-night stand could do with more 'protection'. This all probably wouldn't be so big an issue if not for generations upon generations of religious sexual suppression and its effect on the zeitgeist but here we are.

I've heard plenty of divorcee dads with child support issues bitch and moan about it and their ex-wives do sound like vindictive cunts, forcing these poor bastards to work multiple shitty jobs while they sit at home and never let the guys see the damn kids. But myy first thought is, "Well, how well did you know that person before you porked them?" or sometimes, "Are you sure you're completely blameless in whatever might have triggered that?" Both sides seem to be wanting to avoid even partial responsibility for anything that sounds fucked-up about it. But why even discuss trying to split it evenly down the middle? That's just not practical because it's fucking impossible (except for Arnold Schwarzenegger in that one movie). No one's really thinking about the child, anyway, they're thinking of their own egos and not weighing pro-con situations with that in mind. That's a totally healthy attitude to have when sharing custody of a kid, forcing them to choose sides. If one of them is even around to play that role at all.

We're already ballistically overpopulated as it is. But people somehow treat the idea of moderation in knocking up or getting knocked up (intentionally or not) like an attack on their ability to fuck. So let's just give up, let everyone do whatever the fuck they want, raise confused kids to grow up not knowing what a healthy relationship looks like, not knowing what it means to take responsibility with their lives, have backward ideas about gender roles because of a lack of one parent as a role model, and just let the whole thing crash into an iceberg. At least someone'll make 2 billion out of that climax. Once again we make the ass-backwards mistake of wanting to lament the result of our fuck-ups instead of trying to prevent them. Congratu-fucking-lations.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
