I'll be brutally honest with you. I clicked on her to make sure that there was nothing on here that needed to be reported and to see how many others did the right thing by reporting you.

The anti-abortion leaders really have a larger purpose. They oppose most ideas and programs that can help women achieve equality and freedom. They also oppose programs that protect the health and well-being of women and their children.
Anti-abortion leaders claim to act "in defense of life." If so, why have they worked to destroy programs that serve life, including prenatal care and nutrition programs for dependent pregnant women? Is this respect for life?
Anti-abortion leaders also say they are trying to save children, but they have fought against health and nutrition programs for children once they are born. The anti-abortion groups seem to believe life begins at conception, but it ends at birth. Is this respect for life?
Then there are programs that diminish the number of unwanted pregnancies before they occur: family planning counseling, sex education, and contraception for those who wish it. Anti-abortion leaders oppose those, too. And clinics providing such services have been bombed. Is this respect for life?
Such stances reveal the ultimate cynicism of the compulsory pregnancy movement. "Life" is not what they're fighting for. What they want is a return to the days when a woman had few choices in controlling her future. They think that the abortion option gives too much freedom. That even contraception is too liberating. That women cannot be trusted to make their own decisions.
Americans today don't accept that. Women can now select their own paths in society, including when and whether to have children. Family planning, contraception, and, if need be, legal abortion are critical to sustaining women's freedom. There is no going back

I clicked because I have very strong feelings about abortion. I'm a pro-choicer, BTW, but I do have my objections, too. I think people need to know first that abortion IS surgery, and it entails certain risks to their health. I don't oppose abortion on religious grounds. I just fear that we're going to be too easy-going if abortion were legalised. Yet, all in all, if we had enough information to decide on, the final decision should be the mother's (and NOBODY else's).

I clicked it because I was under the IMPRESSION that there was a question about abortion lol. I'm a very thoughtful person, and I like to state my opinions on what I think is right and wrong.

To type the following;
As a Christian Pastor I think that abortion is murder.
It is nothing more than an escape from accepting the responsibilities of having children.
Another attempt by society to remove the consequences of two peoples action.
But, I do believe in abortion in the case of rape or incest.

I'm always interested to see what people post with the question. Lot's of people come out with a perspective that they are just SURE will convince everyone of their side. So I'm constantly looking for additional nuggets of argument that people use.

I don't think your logic is very sound.
We need to click on yours to see the question because you didn't pose it in the title.
I have no predilection for abortion questions - this is just a another question to be answered.
