To: worst-case scenario
How would homosexuality result in fewer abortions, though?

Malthusian fear of overpopulation: Malthus saw two ways to keep population down, "positive" and "preventive" checks. Positive checks were nasty: famine, plague and warfare.

Preventive checks included voluntary actions reasonable people could take. Malthus (a clergyman) identified two types of voluntary action, the moral one of deferring marriage, and a variety of "vices" or immoral steps that included birth control, abortion, infanticide, adultery, prostitution and homosexuality.

The overpopulation elite - Rockefeller, Planned Parenthood and all those types push homosexuality in the schools for a reason. Our very existence offends and frightens them.

Conservatives are fighting really evil people who have plans for us.

Okay ...but if an elite is attempting to keep population in check, then that would result in MORE abortions, according to your argument. But the statistics show fewer abortions, which results in more live births.

How does homosexuality result in fewer abortions? That was your original position.
