pro-life nutbaggery.
so the pro-lifers have taken the logical leap i thought they would. they're setting their sights on contraception. fringe element? wacko anti-choicer? not likely to happen?
we'll see.

Ding,
Did you mean to link to the comment page? Just checking
Well, OF COURSE they're going after contraception! These are the same people who don't want condoms distributed in high schools because they think that access to condoms only "encourages" teenagers to get busy.
What they really want, but will never admit directly, is for everyone to just stop having sex. Mostly they want everyone to stop having sex for fun, but in the end they just want universal celibacy. That's why they don't oppose artificial insemination procedures... it's pregnancy achieved without sex! It's the elimination of original sin! Children will only be born to rich couples who can afford the fertility treatments! (Never mind the viable embryos which get dumped down the sink in the end.)
Wow, you actually spoke some truth about the 'whys' of prolifers. Yet, not too indepth to hit the mark of real reasons 'why' strategy covers intent. I'll give you the basics of the under garment of 'why'. 'Yes' original sin, and 'yes' celibracy, but a miss on the rich people comment, that's cool for you. Real Reason #1: Pre-marital sex defined as non-marriage sex, right? God's out of the picture in all non-marital affairs including the sexual ones. Not an immoral point (as one would think), but rather ducking the concept of marriage period. Witness and all, with ring and all, a marriage ceremony is done for the sake of coming before God, not for permission but acknowledgement. Of who? Him, God. Giving some credit as Creator and all those almighty things for creatures of the creator to do. Whew, well I believe that hits the mark better than most. later sis.
and....we're back to why the whole conversation with religious pro-lifers is a zero-sum situation: one article of faith is supposed to fit all.
they may have their reasons lined up but do they really think about what banning contraception and prosecuting all women for it will actually look like?
i doubt it.
