It is an interesting point. If pro-choice people support abortion more frequently than pro-life people in practice, then there will be fewer pro-choice voters in the future. Pro-choice parents tend to have pro-choice children.
Ahhh the inevitable success of people who choose to have more babies. It can be seen in Northern Ireland, where Catholics will soon outnumber Protestants (and outvote them).

All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

wtf?
uhhh ... pro-choice people don't necessarily choose abortion and pro-choice people have kids ...0 -
And pro-life people quite often have pro-choice children. Example, my parents are pro-life - all four of their children are pro-choice.0

We'll have to wait and see I guess.
But this also has an upside : http://www.freakonomics.com/ch4.php
Something that I'd like to know is if "pro-life" people are really that naive? Do you really think that banning abortions will stop women from aborting?0 -
I don't know the numbers, but I think a suprising number of pro-life people acutally have abortions. Once they are in the situation, they are less likely to, but still some do it.
Edit: I found some anecdotal evidence. And since pro-life is referred to as "anti-choice", this is obviously a big pro-choice slant. No numbers, just anecdotes: http://mypage.direct.ca/w/writer/anti-tales.htmlI cannot come up with a new sig till I get this egg off my face.0 -

and how did missouri become the key state for public opinion?0

I'm guessing you are a clone of your father in every thought and action. Sad. Try to be original and free yourself from your paternal chains.War is Peace

I would think that pro-life couples not only abort fewer children, but they also have more children. Christian families have like 50 kids.
I realize that some of you may have families, but consider the average pro-choice female. She's more likely to have aborted a baby than a pro-life woman, as the article suggests. A pro-choice woman might have 5 kids, but she also might have aborted 5 others...All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

I guess your mind couldn't wrap around that example.
Suppose the pro-choice woman has 2 children, but she aborted the other 2. She would've had 4.
The Pro-life woman has 4 children.All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

I honestly expected this to be a story from The Onion. That's how ludicrous it seems to me.CorporateWhore wrote:http://www.opinionjournal.com/best/?id=110010321

I'll be honest here...the main reason I'm pro-choice is having grown up in a family of nine. Obviously my parents weren't pro-choice, but nearly all of my siblings are.CorporateWhore wrote:I guess your mind couldn't wrap around that example.

This is so absurd and I still cannot believe people will argue tooth and nail over this subject.
The best policy is one of choice if you are one to believe that you will never have/ and or support an abortion then great that is your choice. However leave it to those that do not fully agree with their own choices, stop forcing idealogy down peoples throats.
Also I am pro-choice and would NEVER support an abortion that included my involvement, however I will not interfere with the life decisions of the next person because it is their body, their life, and their decision that they will need to face through-out their future years. The policy of choice is best because it leaves the decision to the indiviudal not a % of people who think one way.
Also to add-in I know a girl (daughter of a Catholic minister) who had an abortion because of fear of being canned from the family for it being out of wed-lock. It is easy to believe something when you are never given the choice but my oh my things can change when the golden finger of fate points at you.0 -
See, this is the reason for me to get back to eHarmony. I'll find someone, and make many pro-choicers
Actually, I'm pretty sure my mom is pro-life, and all 5 of her kids are pro-choice.There is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous

I wrapped my head around it and who's to say that the woman has as many abortions as children... maybe they have 4 kids and 1 abortion.This is your notice that there is a problem with your signature. Please remove it.

Ha! Me too...I'm the oldest of 6. It was just craziness to have that many children! Three of my older siblings are pro-choice, one pro-life, and the youngest is only 10.
So my pro-lifer mom has spawned 4 pro-choice heathens.
Hahahaha If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

Okay, and over the course of time, that one abortion adds up to 40 million babies that would never become pro-choicers.All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

the point is, there is no way of telling what they would have become.If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.
