thats a painful story to read. there is only one place in kentucky that will terminate a pregnancy. religion is an ugly thing sometimes. plan B has to be the best solution to date and people wanna stop it due to what they think thier god wants? antibiotics dont get this kind of coverage by the religious right, but they kill millions of cells in the stomach and intestines. really comes down to that idea that were better then the rest of life on earth. very faulty idea to have added into a religion.

I agree completly.

You should read Ishmael by Daniel Quinn, its ultimatly about the human stance in the cycle of life. Very good read.

I had no idea that people didn't know that Planned Parenthood offers emergency contraception as well as abortion services. I expected more american women to be aware of that.

I also agree that the 'life begins at conception' idea is bull. A mass of cells cannot have a soul, but it seems there's no problem slaughtering animals and middle easterners who do. It's madness.
