"Ron Paul is pro-life"

"Is not the libertarian platform pro-fornication (sex outside the bonds of marriage) ?"

I wasn't aware any party had a platform position on sex outside of marriage. I doubt the Libertarian Party does. But that wasn't the topic.

Abortions are only sought because of fornication.

It's quite rare (I've never heard of a single case) where a husband and wife used abortion as "birth control".

The Democrat platform doesn't explicitly say that they support the "partying" lifestyle or couples cohabitating without being married, but the pro-abortion stance is what keeps Democrats voting Democrat. All I ever hear is Roe v. Wade. Of course the other main pillar of the Democrat party is leftism; business is evil, working people need to be against "the man", fake environmental causes, etc. But when it comes right down to it, women that I've personally known allow pro-abortion to keep them voting Democrat no matter who is running. They fear abortion being outlawed and envision themselves needing to get back-alley abortions. This is professional women who have never been pregnant, mind you, not welfare queens. They want to be able to cohabitate without being married or live singly but have sex from time to time without being married.

Pregnancies don't occur because of pollen in the air, if someone plans on not having sex outside of marriage they know that they will not ever desire an abortion.

IMHO, it's high time we call a spade a spade. If the topic is abortion, it really is about fornication.

Sex outside of marriage is a lifestyle that many people now think is normal; it's become institutionalized. For thousands of years this was not the case. It's obviously gotten to the point that some people who think of themselves as conservative don't see anything wrong with pornography.

I wonder how many of these folks also believe they are believing Christians. If they do, they're sadly mistaken, because the Bible exhorts the believer that such things are sinful. As Christians, we can't serve two masters. We are either true believers, which means obedience to Christ, or we are not. We can't be happy citizens of cities filled with lust and fornication and say live and let live to all that sin, and then at the same time somehow claim that we are children of God and obedient to Christ. Modern Christians often point to Christ dining with sinners, but we all know that this is twisting Scripture to suit ourselves not wanting to admit that sin is sin. Christ never said that the sin was acceptable.
