Here’s an oldie but a goodie on the separation of Abortion the Health issue being looked at apart from the Abortion the Moral issue: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,957302,00.html

And just for fun, here’s one Catholic view of the sin in contraception: http://www.scborromeo.org/glad/c4.htm

My theory is, if they think that contraception is bad, and masturbation (spilling the seed) is just as sinful, then why has no Catholic teaching tried to outlaw menstruation? After all, menstruation is spilling an egg, isn’t it? It’s pretty much the same as spilling seed, right? So why are women allowed to menstruate, but men not allowed to masturbate? Is it because one is generally more pleasurable than the other? I’m betting that’s the only reason. Heaven forbid anyone have pleasure that doesn’t result in creation of some kind. Okay, I hope you enjoyed some of that information I found online. It was some of the data that has brought me to my own current beliefs. It was not taught to me or instilled in me, it was research I acquired for myself. I just wanted to pass it on, so that others may see where I’m coming from.

And on a side note, I hate that anti-abortion and anti-contraception proseletizers want to claim the title “pro-life.” After all, their “pro-life” laws have killed, and many of them would use capitol punishment to enforce their anti-abortion laws.  The very term “pro-life” has yet to be earned by anyone who supports capitol punishment or anti-abortion extremists, if you ask me. As far as I can tell, the Pro-Choice men and woman are far more deserving of the phrase Pro-Life than any of their opposition. But hey, I’m open to hear arguments to my latest statements.
