Message-ID: <646@druxx.UUCP> Date: Thu, 1-Nov-84 13:20:09 EST Article-I.D.: druxx.646 Posted: Thu Nov 1 13:20:09 1984 Date-Received: Fri, 2-Nov-84 06:18:48 EST Organization: AT&T Information Systems Laboratories, Denver Lines: 35 Assuming 15000000 since 1973 is a fairly accurate number I would agree that abortion is being used as a method of birth control. That's an average of 3736 a day, EVERY day since 1973. Or 75 EVERY day for EVERY state. Are there this many babies born everday? I have no statistics. I've often wondered why any male would want to have anything to do with a person who has such little regard for human life, let alone have sexual intercourse with them. Is this where the word "whipped" comes in? I sometimes get tired of the rape/incest arguments as applied to the abortion issue. 3736 EVERY DAY for 11 years. COME ON! How many of these women (married?) had "secret" abortions to cover up the result of a "secret" affair? How many of these women had abortions because they didn't know who the father was? How many women have had abortions because a baby would be an inconvenience to their selfish life style? How many men support abortion because a baby would be an inconvenience to their selfish life style? Could it be that many males support pro-choice to avoid their own responsibilities should their partner conceive? Should males be held responsible financially and/or emotionally for a baby that is born when the same male has no decision making rights as far as abortion is concerned? How many times have women used conception to make a "catch" and when their partner balks resort to abortion? This could go on and on I suppose. In my opinion to use a human life or dispose of a human life for any of these reasons is sickening. If you've gotton my point I really don't care what you may think of my grammer, so flame on. "life is but a dream" "it's what you make it" "always try to give" "don't ever take it"
