Is there some reason you would imply that my position that (early, pre-sentiency) abortion should be the woman's choice equates to my approving that women be given "no alternatives," and essentially forced into getting unwanted abortions

Nope, that is the reason you call yourselves (wink wink) choicers. BUT it is easy to see you are willing to play god, by deciding abortions are ok prior to "early(whatever early is) and sentiency(when ever you decide that is) and then there is this exception and that exception and then down the slope you went. I have shown form world class scientists that life begins at conceptiopn. So.......

Here is something you might relate to.

Dolores O'Riordan: Lead Vocalist, The Cranberries:
"It's not good for women to go through the procedure [abortion] and have something living sucked out of their bodies. It belittles women. Even though some women say, 'Oh, I don't mind to have one,' every time a woman has an abortion, it just crushes her self-esteem smaller and smaller and smaller."
(Source: You! Magazine, June/July 1996)

Why are you asking me if Haqi approves or disapproves? Ask him yourself, he seems to be perfectly able to handle you, lol.

Do you think these remarks about my position show an intelligent understanding of it?

intelligent?? Here is some intelligence for you E,:
READ UP!!

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of "morning after pills" which may be taken up to 72 hours after sexual intercourse as a "safe" way to "avoid pregnancy." The FDA has also authorized such drugs to be labeled and sold in interstate commerce as "emergency contraception."

In fact, the FDA, which is supposed to protect consumers from drug fraud, has authorized such fraud by granting its permission to label drugs such as Preven, Planned Parenthood's Plan B, etc., as contraceptives.

These drugs achieve their primary anti-fertility effect by destroying a new and distinct human being -- with a unique genetic code different from the mother's and father's -- after the process of fertilization has taken place, but before the child has nestled into the mother's womb.

These actions of the FDA have, in fact, prevented consumers from learning they were pregnant -- and that they may have been an unwitting party to an abortion.

We recognize that proponents of emergency contraception, or morning after pills, claim their products prevent both pregnancy and abortions. However, in doing so they must first reject the definitive conclusions of the biological sciences regarding the beginning of human life which they learned in medical school. And secondly, they must employ ambiguous language which is crafted to avoid public controversies over abortion and the moral concerns of women taking these drugs.

We also believe that the widespread availability of morning after pills will also increase pressures on women for unwanted sexual intercourse, which will ultimately result in women being aborted without their knowledge or consent.

For these and other reasons, we urge women to inform themselves of the real medical and moral facts regarding the so-called "morning after pills."
