Are you for or against the separation of church and state?

Here's some stats on teen abortion rates, it's convenient because this is also based on rate per 1,000 teens, so it's comparable to the graph I posted earlier on Teen Pregnancy rates. Here's the chart: http://www.childtrendsdatabank.org/sites...7_fig1.jpg and here's the site: http://www.childtrendsdatabank.org/?q=node/175
The site states:

Government estimates indicate that teen abortion rates increased during the 1970s, stabilized during the 1980s at around 43 per 1,000 females ages 15 to 19, then decreased steadily to about 18 per 1,000 by 2008. Declines have been greatest for older teens, but all age groups have followed similar patterns. (Figure 2)

Note, Figure 2, is the first link.
So… Teen pregnancy rate in 2008 = 41.5 per 1,000
Teen abortion rate in 2008 = 18 per 1,000
And just by looking at the graph, one can plainly see that teen abortion rates have declined significantly since the 1980's. I don't think your theory that all these teens are having abortions holds water, GC.
