Thanks to all of you for your kind words about this blog. I have always been pro-choice and, indeed, worked in the field. But over the years I learned while the “right to choose” was pretty clear cut (at least to me), the actual abortion experience was much more complicated. I also became concerned that it seemed to me that the pro-choice movement could talk about “choice” but their discomfort level increased when the “A” word was introduced. Meanwhile, there are so many misconceptions about abortion and, yes, both sides play a little loose with the facts.
Thanks Susan, Hilda, Angie and Lisa for your very kind remarks. And please continue to chime in or ask questions. I do not have the monopoly on wisdom on this issue, but I will try to answer the questions as honestly as possible.

What might really help rather than focus on the A word is to connect the “aborticentrist” word to the so-called “pro-life” movement.
I noticed that Nancy, the truly “pro-life” adoptive single mother of four, has not chosen to explain how she gets on financially as a single parent, even though it’s costing her about $62,000 a year to raise them. Just wondering whether your readers have been fed a load….
Meanwhile, cut and paste my name to find out how almost all of those who call themselves “pro-lifers” care for real human life not of their choosing…

What is an “aborticentrist”????

An “aborticentric” is a person who is so focused on abortion that the fixation precludes an ability to care for real human life.
Which is the point of the video of the demonstrators– I don’t know that you ever watched it, but the abyssal disparity that exists between their concern for “unborn humans” and their concern for the children in their town is a quite common manifestation of aborticentrism.
“Aborticentrist” is an adjective used to describe anything pertaining to the field of aborticentrism.
The patron saint of aborticentrics is the pediatrician Gianna Molina Baretta, who preferred to risk dying from her pregnancy than to live to try save her own seven-year-old daughter from dying. She’s the right woman for that crowd.

The Facebook page is great. Why would one not want to post there?
Another Forum for one’s opinion on abortion.
Best Page on FB.
Love this blog on Abortion. More info than any other.
Intelligent commentary. Although the pro lifers rarely can support their position, I feel bad for them.
It must feel embarrassing to have a string opinion then not be able to express oneself.
Sad, probably a reflection of poor education, i suppose.
I would love to be persuaded otherwise. It would be easy, just support a position. They never do.

Harriet, so-called “pro-lifers” don’t realize what they are actually doing– engaging in a dysfunctional twelve-step program to address deeply repressed fear about their own death and disappearance from this world. Of insufficient religious faith to accept that they will enjoy eternal bliss with their Creator, they have seized upon the fetus as a metaphor for themselves. By “rescuing” it, they attempt to convince themselves that God is just as concerned about them. This explains why their concern for human life stops at the door to the delivery room. Google “aborticentrism” to learn more.

Thanks, Harriet! I do like the related Facebook page also. I do get frustrated, however, when some simple questions are posed to those who oppose abortion and you never hear anything. Recently, someone just asked if a pro-life person supported birth control No answer. Another asked if a pro-life person has adopted a child. No answer. I grow weary of people who pontificate, who would impose their morals on others, yet do not “walk the walk.”

I’ll answer you, PR. I’m a pro-life person and I support birth control. I don’t support contraception, or any other form of masturbation, but I do support birth control. Also, I have never adopted a child. Heroes adopt children, and I am not a hero. But just because someone is not a hero, that doesn’t mean he has to be a killer. Does it?
(I’m new to Facebook and, since I’m not really smart either, if you reply and you want me to see it, you have to email me and tell me how.)

John,
so you are OK with all the abortions due to birth control?
I doubt your protestations of not being smart. Why don’t you reply?
As far as being a hero, there does not seem to be 1/100,000 needed to adopt babies that prolifers offer as an alternative. So we don’t need heroes just what prolifers offer as a solution but will not meet the rallying call for that same solution.
Is it a solution? By definition not heroes as everyone would be a hero, dilutes out hero as a word.

I’m curious. Is not abortion birth control? I know it is the ONLY form of birth control in Russia.

John, I feel sure that nobody in their right mind adopts because they want to be a “hero.” Heroism is bestowed by a society on the person who meets society’s price, and raising an adopted child is too mundane and far too common for society’s standards. (If it were the case, then we’d be kowtowing to and complimenting and rewarding so many people so frequently, we’d debase the notion of heroism.
\
The real “heroes” are the “pro-choicers” who know how much they will have to sacrifice of their own hopes, dreams and life goals, but decide raising a child is more important. Quite unlike the so-called “pro-lifers,” who make it their work to persuade uninformed pregnant women to continue to remain pregnant. Then they walk away, feeling that they are heroes…
Contraception is a form of masturbation? I find that a delightful description. Were you home schooled, by any chance? Or subjected to the same Cahtolic education I was? My devoutly Catholic parents relied on the rhythm method for over 60 years. It only failed them eleven times. How many children do you want?
