Catholic Church Versus Artificial Family Planning

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Should there be some sort of "being irresponsible while pregnant law". How would this be enforced?

Saudi-style religious police.

Surely that's how it would go. Being lashed to a hospital bed until term or something equally hideous.

Why is that hideous?

A bed is where a woman belongs anyway. Well, that and the kitchen.

It is amazing that the obvious needs to be pointed out over and over again. It's as if all that education makes these broads forget that they're broads to begin with!

Jesus H. Christ!

What does the H stand for again?

I didn't say how many abortions were performed that late, I just was shocked at how late they were available. And where I read it, it did not focus on it being for medical reasons.

And I don't think every person having an abortion was just sick of being pregnant.

No, but you did say 'unbelievable and horrible', which I found to be strange terms to apply to something that is in most cases already a tragic situation. So I thought maybe you didn't know that it was usually only extreme circumstances when anyone would abort that late, and usually not in a case where everything's just peachy and the pregnancy would result in a healthy child if just left to itself.

I understand...but how late are you talking? Gender has been able to be seen at 12 weeks in some. At my 12 weeks ultrasound I saw the baby's face. That is still far along IMO. If you have statistics about how many women have abortions at certain weeks of pregnancy and their reasons why, I would like to see it. (I'm being serious, not sarcastic).

Men in white coats restraining ordinary people seems strangely sinister... Like the plot of a Robin Cook novel.

* United States: In 2003, from data collected in those areas that sufficiently reported gestational age, it was found that 6.2% of abortions were conducted from 13 to 15 weeks, 4.2% from 16 to 20 weeks, and 1.4% at or after 21 weeks. [13] Because the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's annual study on abortion statistics does not calculate the exact gestational age for abortions performed past the 20th week, there is no exact data for the number of abortions performed after viability. [13] In 1997, the Guttmacher Institute estimated the number of abortions in the U.S. past 24 weeks to be 0.08%, or approximately 1,032 per year.[14]
