banning abortions won't help
I'm pro choice. I get annoyed at people that are calling the "morning after pill" an abortion. Abortion deals with implanted fertilized eggs. If you prevent implantation, it's not a pregnancy. Thus, you can't call it an abortion.
I also am in favor of using fertilized eggs for stem cell research if they're leftovers from in vitro procedures that will be thrown away anyway. I don't consider it a life - it was otherwise destined for a fate in the autoclave for proper biohazard disposal. Should we start arresting those that properly dispose of fertilized eggs as murderers?
I came across this article today. It made me laugh a bit.
Basically the "rhythm method" that is favored by some religions as birth control could be killing off more fertilized eggs than any other birth control method used.
