And then this crap "Stop the war on women" War on women? What happens in a war? People die. Who is doing the killing here? And why do I always see lesbians at these protests? Do lesbians constantly get pregnant?

Patricia Launneborg’s book Abortion: a Positive Decision is a difficult book for a pro-lifer to read. As the title indicates, it presents abortion in the most positive light possible, sugarcoating the decision and praising women who have abortions. One especially eye-opening quote comes from a clinic worker who says (emphasis mine):
In Spain every single abortion is done under local [anesthesia]. It’s walk in, walk out. They come in at 4 clock, by 5 o’clock they have had the operation, the consultation, and are back home. And I was so impressed by it. I said, it’s not possible! I wouldn’t mind having 3 or 4 abortions like that rather than go to the dentist once every 5 years. They’ve mastered the technique, improved it, no fuss.” (page 86)
To many pro-lifers, this quote is shocking. This clinic worker, who sees the torn apart bodies of aborted babies daily, actually says that enduring multiple abortions is better than a trip to the dentist. Not only does her viewpoint show a complete disregard for the baby, but it does not respect the reality that many women face.
Groups like Silent No More have compiled the testimonies of many, many women who were devastated by their abortions. Support groups and healing retreats for post-abortion women take place all over the country. Thousands of women attend these events or are members of post-abortion advocacy groups. Obviously, to many women, abortion is not easier than going to the dentist.
In the beginning of the book, the pro-abortion author of Abortion: A Positive Decision concedes:
No matter that legal abortion is as safe a procedure as having your tonsils out or a penicillin injection or wisdom tooth extracted. It is far more than a safe medical procedure because of the complicated decision-making that is involved, and the fact that it has to do with sex and life and death. (pages 3-4)
Of course, Launneborg’s claim that abortion is extremely safe can be refuted, but for now I will focus on her second statement. Abortion, she says, has to do with “life and death.”
I can’t help but wonder. Whose life? Whose death? Obviously, the woman does not die in the abortion (in most cases). So it must be the fetus, the baby, who dies. How can Launneborg acknowledge that someone dies in every abortion and still call it a “positive decision”? She is not the only pro-choice author or activist who has stated that abortion is killing. There are 41 quotes on my website where pro-choice activists admit this.
Both Launnborg and the unnamed clinic worker have hardened their hearts toward the aborted babies to the point where they have a complete lack of respect for human life. The good news is that most people have not closed off their emotions when it comes to abortion. Many thousands of men and women come to pro-life sites every day and learn the truth about abortion, what it does to women and their unborn babies. Many will be horrified by the clinic worker’s words.

Too bad her mother didn’t feel that way too.
My mother always said she’d rather have a baby than go to the dentist. She hated going to them.
In December I had to take a written driver’s test.
Said I’d rather go to the dentist.
Or take actual driving test.
Kinda changed my mind when I got only 1 wrong answer - - totally unbelievable.
Very thankful.
That’s an old joke..
My mother used to tell it..
the woman says to the dentist “I’d rather have a baby”
and the dentist says “Well make up your mind so that I can adjust the chair...”
And then this crap "Stop the war on women" War on women? What happens in a war? People die. Who is doing the killing here? And why do I always see lesbians at these protests? Do lesbians constantly get pregnant?
A particularly gorgeous woman entered the dentist’s surgery in an obvious state of agitation. The dentist tried to calm her down assuring her that he would do nothing to hurt her. She sat down in the chair and started fidgeting nervously as the dentist began sterilizing all the required equipment. When he asked her to open her mouth, she screamed.
So he tried to calm her down again even though he was losing patience.
Almost immediately she threw a hysterical fit, then realizing that the dentist had begun glaring at her, she said, “Oh doctor, I’m so nervous. I hate dentists! Why, I think I’d rather have a baby than have a tooth drilled!”
Replied the dentist “Well Miss, better make up your mind fast so that I can adjust the chair.”
At least SHE has a choice...
I believe her. Women never lie about going to the dentist.
I think I know her, really!
Liberal or conservative, even devoutly Catholic, women around you have had an abortion, 60%. Some become conservative after, most all are very ashamed of it, as you would be if you killed someone defenseless. They wont tell you, EVER. Even your wife might not if she had one before meeting you.
That’s the reality. It hurts them deeply.
The other reality is with repenting is God’s absolute and never-ended love for them and TOTAL forgiveness, if she will allow it.
“They’ve mastered the technique, improved it, no fuss.”
Said a Nazi: Extermination camps are so much less fuss than rounding up Jews in public, digging large holes, shooting them, burying them...
Think about it. That way we also get all of their stuff, free labor before killing them...Why, we can make a profit off of mass murder!
