Well, first...don't put your statement of responsibility off as an aside. It is the core issue. Second, there are things that bother me about it and the article. The following quotes are out of the article you linked: ; if ovulation and fertilization* have already occurred, the drug blocks implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterine wall.* life? Wal-Mart, the nation's largest retailer, decided last year not to offer it in any of its 2,400 pharmacies. why? Joan Coombs, senior vice president of Planned Parenthood, who estimated that widespread use of the pills could annually prevent 1.7 million unplanned pregnancies and 800,000 abortions. I am ALWAYS leery of anything that plantednonparenthood agrees with...and IF, as I asked above, fertilization is life...then the pill CAUSES 800,000 abortions, not prevents them. ANd it is my stance that abstinence will prevent 1.7 million unwanted pregnancies. You don't believe that anyone would actually abort a child as a matter of birth control, do you?(((wink wink))) selling the pills over the counter would lead to lost opportunities to counsel patients on sexually transmitted diseases. true or not? Have I answered you?
