Those are religiously funded campaigns, witch by all means is religion imposing its will on the legislation of a secular country.
As for the abortion issue, I don't understand why people think its such an easy choice for women to make, it is difficult enough already if the woman is a rape/incest victim, or if there is a danger to her own life.
The anti-choice christian right makes it out as if its a lifestyle choice. Oh and guess what they don't endorse sex-ed, so there are even more unwanted pregnancies!
You know what will cause less abortions - family planing, contraception, and sexually educated teens.
A embryo has no hopes nor dreams, nor memories, nor a family to take care of unlike the doctors that the christian nutcases have killed.
Ok that was disgusting
If a woman needs an abortion, she'll end up going to a backstreet butcher if there is no legal way. No one has the right to take away her rights, including all these self-righteous crackpots. Not one of them would offer to adopt or take on the responsibility of raising any of the countless unwanted children who are born every day.
As for the , 'every life is a gift from God' crap, just exactly which god are they talking about? The one that allows, rapists, murders, abusers of people and animals, psychotics and sociopaths to roam amongst the rest of us? If so, Hellooo out there. You're praying to the wrong one.
My domestic pets have eaten their babies on occasion, nature is cruel and if you think that it's designed by an omniscient designer, then the creation speaks volumes for the designer.
Abortion is the symptom of the problems with society, not the cause, if you want less abortions you need people who use contraception and plan their family for when they have a solid job and spouse.
Abortion sucks, no doubt about it, but making it illegal will create even more problems, are you that near sighted to not realize that?
Home made/back-alley abortions, infanticide, even more children in orphanages (very few of witch will be adopted by the same anti-choice people).
Get it trough your bleeding hearts that not every puppy and kitten can be rescued, and not every baby is born from love, without a risk to the mother, without life threatening disease, and into a family that can take care for it. The sooner we face reality the sooner we`ll get to solving our problems.
Also, acknowledge the fact that an embryo has no feelings, hopes or self awareness, it has the potential to become a person, but potential is not really something we take into account do we? Otherwise every time a man pulls out, or a woman takes the pill the day after, they would be denying a potential baby the chance to live.
