You really believe the fetus is a living being with a right to life that you and I have, but it's OK to suspend that right if the conception was during a rape? Isn't that punishing the child for the crimes of the father? You think that's OK?For me, and I assume for many others, this is a matter of idealism v. practicality. I don't think it's morally correct to abort in the case of rape, but I'm "OK" with making that concession if it would reduce abortion overall.
You know what would reduce abortions overall?
Sex ed! Using fucking condoms, because you were told why you needed to use them!
Who have the most abortions? Fucking religious people!
Quote:Who's having abortions (religion)?
Women identifying themselves as Protestants obtain 37.4% of all abortions in the U.S.; Catholic women account for 31.3%, Jewish women account for 1.3%, and women with no religious affiliation obtain 23.7% of all abortions. 18% of all abortions are performed on women who identify themselves as "Born-again/Evangelical".

Religious people who are fucking, but not using condoms, because they think it's either "a sin," or you don't feel like educating your children on the basic biology, and prevent the school system from doing it as well.
You want to reduce abortions?
Educate your kids. It doesn't matter how you feel about it, they're going to have sex, and if they're women, they're going to have a lot of sex, roughly double the sex your average male child will have.
Stop being so fucking religious. That would lower abortions by 87%.
