For a convenience that is survivible, warrants the death of a child through abortion?

You would, as you stated, banned all use of all birth control. My premise, which you keep ignoring, is that the decision is to take the risk of having a child at an inconvenient time, and giving the child a loving home if it happens anyway.

It is you who draw the arrow from inconvenience to abortion, not me. From the standpoint of "convenience" all children are to some extent "inconvenient." They do offer other compensations that offset that. I cannot remember a single time that I thought changing a diaper was a joyous act.

Where have I said so? My premise is that I believe that contraception to be sinful. That’s not the same as saying that I believe all forms ought to be banned.

“My premise, which you keep ignoring, is that the decision is to take the risk of having a child at an inconvenient time, and giving the child a loving home if it happens anyway.”

Plenty of homes wanting to adopt. Especially for an unplanned pregnancy.

“I cannot remember a single time that I thought changing a diaper was a joyous act.”

And I doubt I will change one in my life and I wish I could. Not everyone sees things as you do.

You continue to make that charge, but have failed to show evidence of it.

*ahem* Then you have never changed one after a night of listening to screaming because a baby was constipated. Boy have YOU missed out!!! I stopped short of running to show an exhausted Hubby.
