Yeah.... what's 640,000 murders in a year?  No big deal, right?  
By the way, it has nothing to do with "religion".

You're wrong on that.  In addition, there are multiple states in 
the USA where abortion is legal for the duration of a pregnancy, 
in other words, up to the 9-month+ point.  You think that is fine 
too?

Sadly, it *has* become a form of birth control for that 
demographic.  What really sucks is that there are multiple 
(govt-sponsored) ways to get FREE contraceptives, but these people 
are too lazy to bother with that.

Oh, and did you know that there is a form of contraception which 
costs......... NOTHING?  Yep.  It's true.

No argument from me on that.
