The Miracle of Birth
The fundies feel that conception is miraculous and hence are anti-abortion and anti-birth-control. If it's so miraculous, what makes them think God is gonna be stopped by a bit of latex.

For that matter, why should lack of ovaries, hymen or uterus or even an egg be an issue?

Maybe guys can get pregnant! :scared:

2. God is pro-choice
He has performed more abortions than all of the human abortionists in the history of the world.

5. I've wondered about that
I sympathize with all DUers who have lost children involuntarily before they were born.
I wonder though what anti abortionists think about women who have problems carrying a pregnancy to full term. I know two women personally who have one child but went through over eight pregnancies each to get that one child. Another woman in the newspaper was featured on Mother's Day as a woman who would not give up in trying to have a baby. She finally had a live baby after twelve pregnancies. I'm sure that there are women out there who have had even more unsuccessful pregnancies especially those Fundies who don't believe in birth control or sterilization. Is a woman who consciously gets pregnant or does nothing to prevent pregnancy, who has a medical problem that makes carrying to term difficult, less worse than a woman who has an abortion. Isn't the end result the same?
