There's not many consequences for not abstaining. And allowing abortion removes one of the big consequences. Abortion, in effect, incourages non-abstinance.

This is a gross exageration - or sophistry. Only the most degraded women regard abortion with equanimity.

I've taught school and been around many, many kids from all kinds of backgrounds - from ultra-sophisticated to ghetto. A great number of them will have the same response to the teaching of abstinance as they have to the teaching of the dangers of marijuana: what a crock of shit!
