I have to weigh in on some of these.
CPC Lie #1: "Abortion causes breast cancer."
DW had an abortion when she was 20 (not mine). If she had lumps in the 30 years since, considering that I'm a consummate breast man, my hands would have found them. So, BULLSHIT!CPC Lie #2: "You'll probably never be able to have children again if you have an abortion now."
Sounds like a great reason to have one!CPC Lie #3: "Condoms don't work."
We used them for 10 years, and we still ain't got no parasites, I mean, babies. So, BULLSHIT!CPC Lie #5: "Birth control and the 'morning-after pill' are abortifacients."
I'm just waiting for one of these Fundies to say "condoms and sterilization are abortifacients because they prevent sperm and egg from meeting and deny a child its right to life." I know, don't give them any ideas!CPC Lie #6: "Abortion causes women permanent psychological and mental damage, including 'post-abortion syndrome.'"
DW felt some guilt, but it was over being stupid, getting drunk, and having unprotected sex. So, BULLSHIT!CPC Lie #7: "Abortions cost much more than carrying your baby to term."
Some things are just too stupid to comment on!CPC Lie #8: "Surgical abortion is very dangerous and can kill you."
DW still looks very alive to me. So, BULLSHIT! Okay, so it could kill you, but so can having a tooth extracted. All surgeries are inherently dangerous to a degree.CPC Lie #9: "You have plenty of time to make a decision. One-third of all pregnancies end in miscarriages anyway."
Not in Mississippi! There, miscarriages are murder. Nice try, Fundies, but I see what you're trying to do, sucker women into not having abortions, but still be persecuted and prosecuted for not birthing no babies. So, BULLSHIT!CPC Lie #10: "Your baby can already smell and hear you," "Your baby already has a heartbeat," or "Your baby can already feel pain."
A baby can smell underwater? He'd drown if he inhaled in the womb! So, BULLSHIT!CPC Lie #11: "Pregnancy is safer than abortion"
Really? Is that why pregnancy and childbirth was the number one cause of fatalities among women in developed countries prior to 1930? So, BULLSHIT!CPC Lie #12: "Adoption is better for you mentally than abortion", "Women who place feel no anguish", "Every woman who aborts regrets her decision"
DW has no regrets. We've talked on this forum about women who placed and have been tormented by the brats later in life. So, BULLSHIT!Can I secede from the human race now?
