How am I distorting your position? You are asserting that sex is about procreation and, while you would tolerate other uses of it, if pregnancy occurs, a baby must be produced. And if she can't find a home for the baby, the mother must raise it, however ill equipped she is to do that. And this is right and good because, after all, she sinned and must pay the price. How is that a distortion? The problem with your approach is that it can equally well justify infanticide. No it can't. I'm talking about early abortion as a fall back to birth control. I'm not talking about killing babies. There is no excuse for waiting for nine months before deciding that you don't want a baby after all. That determination shouldn't take more than a few days. Presumably, the matter would have been considered and tentatively determined prior to sexual activity. All that would remain to be done would be to review and finalize the decision.
