Simply because a thing is legal doesn't mean 'everyone' would avail themselves of it. Fucking moron.

Uh, maybe I used the wrong word. I'm suggesting a hypothetical scenario in which too many people get abortions (perhaps because it's too accepted) and this jeopardizes human survival.

I don’t mean that people agree with those teachings, but few questions or comments show an accurate understanding of what the Church teaches.
I wish I could say that growing up in the Church and attending Catholic schools would give a person that accurate understanding. From what I see here and from what I see in my life, it does not. That is especially true with the weak catechesis and overbearing secular messaging of the last 50 years.

Do you think that’s why I’m here?
