You call abortifacient birth control 'education in sexual reproduction'??? The idea that the Church has impeded sexual education is a myth and a lie.

No. I call 'sex education' sex education.

The rest of your assertion is easily disproven garbage.

Most issues are clear when someone else has to decide them. You want to make the decision for others so of course the issue is clear to you.

It's clear that another human being is being killed and that another human being is being denied any bodily rights.

Meanwhile in the real world:

Dear Friend of Life,

The abortion industry has once again revealed its horrifying, radical agenda. This time, it was at a U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on late-term abortions earlier this week.

Witness after witness for the abortion lobby left no doubt in anyone’s mind: The abortion industry wants abortion on demand up until birth, and babies who are accidentally born during an abortion can be left to die.

It didn’t matter that physicians at the hearing testified that babies can feel pain at 20 weeks gestation. The abortion lobby’s witnesses were against any ban on late-term abortions, indifferent to the fact that abortion inflicts horrific pain upon children in the womb.

It didn’t matter that physicians also testified about the numbers of babies born at 22 weeks gestation who survive -- and that the survival rate increases dramatically with each passing week of gestation.* These children are routinely killed in abortion facilities across America.

And when asked about babies who are born alive during botched abortions, the abortion lobby’s witnesses insisted that they should ONLY get life-saving medical care IF the mother and the abortionist want to help them.

(in other words, if the baby is born alive in a failed abortion, and no longer attached to the mother so she is officially no longer pregnant, the abortion lobby's position is that the born infant can still be killed as part of the abortion procedure. A baby, completely outside of its mother can still be killed!)


I want to quote the witnesses directly on that, because it's hard to believe.

Jodi Magee, president of the pro-abortion Physicians for Reproductive Health, said, “We should leave it to [the abortionists] to make those decisions, and we should be leaving it to women to make the choices about their own pregnancies.” When the question was asked again whether babies born alive should get medical care no matter what, Dr. Diana Foster, professor at the University of California-San Francisco’s department of obstetrics, said, “I do disagree.”

That’s right, the abortion industry admitted to Congress that it’s willing to let those sweet little babies born alive struggle for their last breaths on the table or in the trash can until they die.

After decades of telling us that abortion is all about a woman’s right to control her own body, the abortion industry just revealed that even AFTER a child is outside her mother’s body and the “Her body, her choice” excuse no longer exists, they’re still willing to kill that child.

And that ladies and gentleman should put to rest the lie that this is about bodily rights of the pregnant woman. It's about killing an unborn human being.

The abortion issue is clear. The woman is paying a doctor to kill and in many cases, dismember the body of another human being. In spite of the claim that a woman has the right to do with her body what she wants, an abortion procedure is being done on the body of another human and NOT the woman's body - yet she is the one who is making the bodily rights claim. 650,000 females in the United States are being denied the right to bodily autonomy every year. Worse is that someone else is making a decision that directly affects the body of another - to the point of killing the other human beings! This includes killing procedures that sever limbs and even decapitation! And the limbs aren't cleanly cut off either. They are ripped off the body of the human being using instruments designed for just that! This is how the pro abortion side ultimately defines bodily rights. It's the powerful preying on the weakest humans and using that power to kill them at will.

The abortion issue is clear. In the vast number of cases, a woman is paying a doctor to end the life of something with no higher brain functions, that can't feel pain and shouldn't be classified as a person with rights. The anti-freedom side often tries to argue against this procedure by playing up the emotional rhetoric to a fever pitch and even lying to promote their view:

Sorry Papazoom, I can't bring myself to watch it....I have seen many people die.....but I cannot watch that.....
It's a civil justice hearing on Planned Parenthood. Also is an undercover video of Planned Parenthood and their policy to let a baby just die on the table if it is born alive in a botched abortion. This issue is NOT about bodily rights as the pro abortion advocates try to claim it is. The child is born, separated from its mother and Planned Parenthood and others STILL want to kill the baby. I won't be surprised if some posters here either simply ignore this fact (and won't comment on it) or they will support Planned Parenthood's position to kill the born baby anyway.

All laws are human laws, as far as I can tell. If you are taking about the laws in the bible, then yes, I believe our current laws are far superior to ones that existed around 20 to 30 centuries ago.

You could not be more wrong! Take the case of the seventh commandment which forbids sex outside of marriage. The sexual revolution of the sixties produced the need to legalize abortion, and the result has been the massive slaughter of nearly sixty million innocent unborn children.

And you want be to believe that our human laws are superior to the laws given by Almighty God?

From Media Matters:

Live Action's Latest Abortion Clinic Undercover Video A Bust

The anti-abortion rights group Live Action released today an undercover video claiming to reveal "illegal and inhuman practices" at an abortion clinic in New York City, and accused a doctor at the clinic of committing murder. The video reveals nothing of the sort, and actually undermines Live Action's baseless allegations that the clinic is performing illegal procedures and endangering the lives of patients.

Live Action and its founder, Lila Rose, have a long, disreputable history of perpetrating hoaxes and concocting false allegations against abortion rights supporters, Planned Parenthood in particular. This latest "undercover video" project is timed to coincide with the trial of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, a Philadelphia abortion provider facing multiple murder charges resulting from the monstrous and horrific procedures he is alleged to have carried out under the guise of women's reproductive health.

The Live Action video depicts a woman at Dr. Emily Woman's Health Center in the Bronx inquiring after an abortion in the 23rd week of her pregnancy -- a procedure that is legal in New York State. The woman speaks to both a clinician and a counselor at the facility, and the video is edited down to make it appear as though the clinician describes a procedure in which a baby that survives an abortion is killed using a toxic solution.

Based solely on this exchange, Live Action claimed that the doctor who performs abortions at the clinic "has violated" the state's law against murder in the first degree and called on the state's attorney general to launch a homicide investigation. But Live Action edited out from the video the portion in which the clinician makes clear that the situation they're talking about has never happened in her experience and the discussion is hypothetical, and the video shows the counselor explaining to the woman that the doctor would have to resuscitate the baby if that situation did occur.

Media Matters. Such a trustworthy unbiased source of information. It corroborates the investigation you saw in the earlier part of the video. If you even bothered to watch it.
