I agree with the first part of what you say, but the second is much more complex.

Same goes for many things like illegal drugs, immigration...........

I think you just might be onto something there.

I think it is funny some will argue that it's a crime against nature to not allow a child to be born. But then another story once a child is born and the family needs some help! "Don't want their tax dollars to help people who can't afford kids in the first place."

If one truly believes in a Supreme Being and a afterlife then would not there be an allowance made for an abortion? My thoughts are maybe they have a hidden fear there is not and this is the only shot ones gets!

If folks truly practiced what they preached then they'd know that judgement is not for them but for the creator.

Understanding and agreeing (to a point)with the initial statement, I gotta wonder who is controling the politicians.....
'money is the root of all evil' comes to mind....

Not your fault my sarcasm went over your head, Dave. Sometimes hard to detect in print, especially as dry as mine is at times.

As to the OP.......

It's because scheming Republicans discovered that religious fanatics will vote against abortion, regardless of whatever else they do. Heck, I run into evangelicals around here who couldn't even tell you what the rest of the GOP or Democratic platform is.........

All they know is that "Obama is a Godless babykiller!"

Personally, I never cared for religion or what I consider to be "abortions of convenience", aborting a fetus just because you don't feel like having it just seems kinda wrong. But, then I run into some of these teenagers out there and I can't help but think maybe we should extend abortion to age 18.

I see. But, mine is not, as you may have noticed.
