You are correct that Akin is Correct!
” And this whole business of a woman’s body shuts down in rape, there’s no evidence for that.”
There is evidence. Not all women react the same way but most do. This would have been a GREAT opportunity to educate the masses in the truth but those who agree with child sacrifice will not test any hypotheses that will threaten their wallet. With Hannity going after Akin and listing all the RINO’s who want him to step down, I wanted to puke. So did God.
There is also "evidence" that global warming is going to kill us all in a matter of years.
This is a complete and utter trap and Akin walked into it, jumped up and down, and said spring your trap here now - I'm all in! It's also absurd medically.
Think about it. The issue here is how do you deal with what is a dual human tragedy. Rape and abortion. Both are tragedies plain and simple. They are both real plain and simple.
This man's idiotic statement has resulted in the national dialog being focused on abortion rights for women who have been raped. Not on the millions of children who have are killed simply for convenience.
His heart might have been in the right place even if his brain needs a CAT scan and MRI to see if there is actually something in there. That said - he has hurt the cause for stopping the killing of unborn children by focusing the debate on a miniscule issue that honestly is best addressed seperately from convenience killing.
A quick question - before you step into another trap - how does the woman's body "shut down" as you note? Does an already released egg do a u-turn? Does the womans body kill off the sperm? Does the body kill off a fertilized egg, or shed it from the uterus wall if it implants?
If you really believe life begins at conception, and you really belive a womans body can "shut down" a pregnancy aren't you really saying that a woman's body is automatically able to abort an unwanted pregnancy? And if a womans body is able to "shut down" that in a rape situation why is it not morally justified for her to actively choose to do so in other situations?
The BS supporting this idiot is amazingly dissapointing...
