Your pro-contraception argument is flawed. You assume contraception is foolproof and that women seeking abortion are just too lazy to contracept. False. Even Planned Parenthood admits that the majority of women who have abortions were indeed contracepting at the time they got pregnant. So spare us your lecture on birth control.

Planned Parenthood's own "research" institute estimates that well over half of those who abort were not using any birth control at the time they got pregnant. Since it advances the agenda to claim that birth control has a high failure rate, that estimate is suspect, meaning the real number of women who get pregnant while using birth control is far lower.

The "pill" is >99% effective. Even condoms, properly used, are over 90% effective. While I have known quite a few women who have had abortions, not a single one of them made any attempt to prevent the pregnancy. In every case, abortion was the primary choice for birth control. This is also true of abortions that I read about in articles.

I'm sorry, but being anti-contraceptive while claiming to be pro-life makes no sense to me. Do you expect couples to remain celibate within marriage? Or do you think that women should keep on having kid after kid until they hit menopause?
