I work at Social Services, and currently we have 1,600+ children waiting for adoption (with twice as many more in overcrowded foster homes) -- many of these children borne to mothers who "didn't believe in abortion," or were talked out of it with the soothing words, "you can put your baby up for adoption." While the very large fundamentalist Christian community around here is exceptionally vocal about abortion being a sin and murder, they represent less than 5 percent of the people applying for adoption, and those that are, are not interested in mentally/physically challenged or "racially diverse" children. Gay men and women represent the largest number of people wanting to adopt, and don't care as long as they can care for a child (thank you gay men and women).
So, why don't anti-abortionists -- particularly those who demonstrate the loudest -- put their money where their mouth is?
