Get educated. The “morning after pill” is not an abortion. It prevents pregnancy.

Educate yourself.

As a birth control agent, the pill has three modes of operation:

    it may suppress ovulation
    it may thicken the cervical mucous to block sperm passage
    it may cause an abortion by making the uterine lining hostile to implantation.

As a birth control agent TAKEN ONE OR MORE DAYS AFTER SEX the pill has one mode of operation:

    it may cause an abortion by making the uterine lining hostile to implantation.

Ergo, it's an abortifacient. Yes it "prevents pregnancy" - but after conception, and by forcing rejection of the child from the mother's body.

Saundra educates us: “The ‘morning after pill’ is not an abortion. It prevents pregnancy.”

Oh?

Be sure to call up the Diocese of Boston, Saundra, and offer to educate them on what you say they should believe.

Get educated? Romney's own legal counsel knows it causes an abortion.

From the article:

Romney’s flip on the issue came after

his legal counsel, Mark D. Nielsen, concluded Wednesday that the new law supersedes a preexisting statute related to the abortifacient pill.

Taking your words literally "The “morning after pill” is not an abortion" of course it isn't an abortion, it causes one.

"Abortifacient" means a substance that causes an abortion. Thus it kills a baby.

I does not prevent pregnancy, it terminates it.

I remember you when you were pro life and against abortion.

Sometimes irony can be so damned ironic.

The 'morning after pill' does not prevent conception. It does create an inhospitable environment preventing any embryo from finding a home. It does prevent pregnancy, but not conception, by preventing implantation. If conception has occurred, pregnancy has already begun, hormones are signaled, even before implantation, otherwise implantation can't occur. The morning after pill halts this by preventing implantation. Ends the pregnancy. Abortion is it's 'sister act', ending pregnancy after implantation has occurred. Both have the same result - a conceived embryo is deprived of growth, it's life ended. Same results, different means to an end. Class dismissed.
