The writer of the text behind that link seems obsessed with the endometrial-lining and the fact that it changes thickness. That is a natural outcome of menstruation dating back to menarche. The lining is shed every month and therefore, whether a woman is on or off the pill, it changes size during it's 28 day 'life'. I appreciate your viewpoint, I'm going to have to file the 'BC pill is abortion' story with the 'they're out to get us with fluoride in the water' hysteria.

Nice. Subtle shift from the issue to ad hominem.

I'm not sure if you read the whole article, but it is based on solid research and hardly deserves to be called "hysteria". If you would like someone who started looking at the issure from a "less biased" position than try this:

I've looked at it from both sides and will freely admit that there is no concrete proof that taking oral contraceptive "A" will cause X number abortions per year. However, the research out there strongly suggests that oral contraceptives do cause abortions.

As far as hearing it mostly from "pro-life" sources... who else do you think is going to put the information out there? Drug companies? OB-Gyn's who write the prescriptions every day?
