Abortion is rampant because “sex for family” has been deemphasized and “sex for fun” has taken its place. We live in a sex-saturated, pleasure-saturated culture. Contraception has caused people (despite “sex education” in schools) to forget the connection between the sexual act and conception, as a result, a baby is no longer seen as a “blessed event” but an annoying byproduct to be disposed of.
Agreed. The homosexualization of our culture has also helped perpetuate the divorcing of sex from the procreative act.
