I am pro choice...

Tommy - I couldn't agree with you more - if the only reason someone believes something is wrong is their particular religious beliefs then of course that preference might be strong even without a solid scientific basis. My objections to abortion, however, are based in my scientific research and familiarity with the facts as I have discovered them to be. (I don't mean to offend anyone of a religious persuasion here - for example, if someone has a religious belief and it discourages murder, that would not necessarily nullify any arguments they had against murder).

My perspective is based on facts, not internet innuendo. Some of the references i can cite include the American Journal of OB-GYN, the American Journal of Public Health, Center for Disease Control, the State of Virginia Dept. of Public Health, the International Journal of OB-GYN, the Medical Journal of Australia, the European Journal of OB-GYN, the Journal of the American Medical Association, Pediatrics the journal, Acta Gynecolgica Scandinavica, the British Medical Journal and many others.

The facts about the post-abortion sequelae in Scandinavia were the results of a study called the STAKES Study, an analysis done by the Statistical Analysis Unit of Finland's National Research and Development Center for Welfare and Health.

This is not religious issue for me, but rather a most important point about which our society is making a mistake that as I pointed out in my earlier article has devastating effects already and has the potential for even more harm in our future.

Thanks Tommy, Scott and others on the forum for participating in this thread, I was surprised to find it here. I usually get on the Cobra Forum for techie answers to my build problems!
