1-Probably not.
2-Definetly not.
Nowadays no one compalins about the sale of condoms at the supermarket. You can buy what you need for a romatic dinner and what you need for afterwards. One stop shopping!
The abortion "issue" started with with screamers on the pulpit with a morbid fascination and scare tatics to hide the skeletons in their closets of why the became preachers in the first place.
And too many "save the babies" types are murderous elsewhere. Coinsidence?

I'm intrigued with (and disgusted by) the issue of "spreading their legs," as people try to turn the abortion issue into a sex issue. I thought consensual sex was a human right. Since no method of birth control except abstinance is 100% effective, then let's stop characterizing people as sluts and get to the real issue of abortion.
I think 1, probably not.

Yep it absolutely would be, women would then be the ones saying abortion was horrible. Yes it would still be an issue, because you don't have to be a preacher, or even religious to realize that in society today abortion shouldn't exist. Condoms, Birth Control Pills, and a million other ways exist to prevent conception, plus they even have a morning after pill, for people that use alcohol as an excuse. The only people that would have any reason for abortion would be rape victims, other than that its an obsolete concept that abortion should be a right. Women now have the right to say No, a right that wasn't concrete clear back when that judgment was made, they have a right to use various birth control, (the guy too) they have the right to take a morning after pill even. The abortion idea is obsolete in all but the most extreme situations.

I wouldn't actually blame the preachers for this one, it does make sense how they got caught up in it, but the real blame lies with politicians who found the perfect wedge issue. Using Abortion as a political issue forces people to choose sides between Pregnant girls, and Babies (The two groups of people that all humans are most instinctively inclined to protect). It's therefore highly emotional, and being fought in completely the wrong forum. If you want to get to the bottom of the ethics of a medical procedure, you ask a doctor- not a politician. Politicians have proven though out our history that they are underqualified to make decisions about morality, and are often careless with the lives of others. Doctors, on the other hand, regularly face life and death decisions and are careful about the ethics of making those choices. This is a job for the AMA, not Congress.

Didn't you already ask this question? Does asking it a second time make it any more profound?
Oh, and by the way, aren't you doing a little screaming now? Just a bit? Seems so to me. Coincidence?

Amazing how we live in a country where 90% of the population goes into a fit over Michael Vick killing a couple of dogs,but chopping babies into little pieces is just fine. What a sick ******* world!!

I think it still would be, if only because there are plenty of people who think they have the right to tell you personally that you have no right to take your own life.
*i am not advocating suicide, I think it is a waste* But seriously there are people who assume they DO have a right to control YOUR body and YOUR life.
This is not about life vs death...this is about OTHER people saying they have the RIGHT to make desicions about YOUR body.
I personally don't think I would want my woman to get abortion..I would prefer keep or give up for adoption....but I understand that it is a choice between a person and her/God or conscience as it is HER body not mine.

Abortion is not a religious issue it is a human rights issue and I don't anticipate that there would be any difference in how it is viewed regardless of whether men bore children or not.................

Abortion shouldn't be a problem. If you don't want it you can get paid for having it and giving it away. Will cost you nothing but a few months of inconvenience.

Isn't it funny that the Republicans had the presidency, both houses, and a majority on the Supreme Court... yet, they never forced through any abortion legislation!
Why... because if they did, then they wouldn't have anything to run on. It is worth more for them to keep their base 'at arms' than to actually resolve the issue.
