    This is what always puzzled me. So-called conservatives say they want the Gov't out of your life, but then they try and implement the most invasive laws and constitutional amendments. They want to regulate what I put in my body, what I can do with my body (if I were female, that is), who I can and cannot marry, what materials/pictures/movies/etc. I can view and/or posses and I am sure more than a few would like to tell me which god to worship. I guess you can have all the freedom you want as long as it is economic and any amendment from the Bill of Rights that you want as long as it is the 2nd one.

    I'm pretty far from the right wing and don't believe in legislating anything but I'd like to clear some disinformation up. "what I can do with my body (if I were female, that is)". Since when does a woman have 4 arms, 4 legs, 2 hearts, and 2 brains? Ding, Ding, Ding wrong she never does. Just because some people think they are above being responsible for pregnancy (short of rape) in this day and age of ubiqitious contraception of which I am wholeheartedly for does not mean they are justified in their beliefs. People should not have sex until they are ready to face up to the consequences of raising a child, getting an STD, etc. Sheesh, but at least I agree with most if not the rest of your tirade.

      A zygote has none of these. I do agree with you that late term abortions should be very rare as I think it is absoutely the worst form of birth control. Perhaps abortion would be even more rare if we had real sex education classes like they do in some more enlightened European countries. Their abortion rates/teen pregnancy rates are far lower than ours.

      Here is some homework how many abortions are at the zygote stage? I agree we need more sex education, also contraception should be covered by insurance in full, and maybe even free to those under the age of ~25 that should reduce social stigmatization of it.

      What we really need is a male pill or implant, but guess what no one is seriously researching it. I wonder why?

      Really late term abortions ~5 months or so are murder by most standards. Unless I'm not human I was born at 6 months, 2.5 lbs :)
