Via RightwingWatch, it seems that talk show host Kevin Swanson has talked to “some doctors” who believe that if you take birth control, tiny little dead babies are simply hanging around, embedded into the lining of your womb.
Swanson: I’m beginning to get some evidence from certain doctors and certain scientists that have done research on women’s wombs after they’ve gone through the surgery, and they’ve compared the wombs of women who were on the birth control pill to those who were not on the birth control pill. And they have found that with women who are on the birth control pill, there are these little tiny fetuses, these little babies, that are embedded into the womb. They’re just like dead babies. They’re on the inside of the womb. And these wombs of women who have been on the birth control pill effectively have become graveyards for lots and lots of little babies.

Black was already on the cutting edge of anti-choice zealotry, known for complaining about the lack of “morality” surrounding contraception, and told the Washington Times that he was “concerned that birth control is contributing to a low birth rate in the United States and called contraceptives ‘baby pesticides.’”
Terry: Without a clear message of “This is what it means to be pro-life,” then we’re doomed.
Beacham: Nobody articulates our message better than Randall.
Terry: Do we want to make the pill illegal? Yes. Do we want to make the IUD illegal? Yes. The morning after pill? Yes. The patch? Yes. Anything that’s a human pesticide, they all have to be made illegal. A woman has to go to jail if she kills her baby.
So for those couples out there considering using this I.U.D., if you too believe life begins at conception and are staunchly against abortion, you might want to consider using birth control pills instead as they are 96% affective at preventing ovulation according to my wife's PCP.

It doesn't matter whether it's 'the pill' (which tricks the hormones into thinking she is already pregnant), or an I.U.D. (which tricks the uterus into thinking it is already pregnant), NEITHER ONE 'conceives.' They are tools that alter a woman's hormones/physiology.....

Pro-choice means that I willing choose to participate in an act that I know can end up with the result of pregnancy. Pro-life simply means that after I have engaged in that activity and the ensuing results are a life being formed, then I choose to have the baby. So contraception isn't about pro-choice in regard to life, it simply is the choice to actively participate.
pro-life (pr-lf)
adj.
Advocating the legal protection of human embyos and fetuses, especially by favoring the outlawing of abortion on the ground that it is the taking of a human life.

Out of curiosity, do you think it's realistic to expect childfree-by-choice married couples (or life partners - people in committed, long-term, loving relationships who know they never want to be parents) to literally never have sex, or do you think they have no business even being in relationships in the first place? Not even "permanent" sterilization methods are 100% foolproof, although they are clearly the best choice in this situation...
Pro-choice also allows for others to make the choice to believe in pro-life, doesn't it?
You can't dismiss the choice for some people to believe in pro-life, because it is ultimately their choice, isn't it?
So because it was your choice to be pro-life before your conception and that you chose your parents, didn't that kind of remove from them their choice when it came to giving you life? You are the one who said you were reincarnated and that you chose your parents, so you were pro-life yourself. You seemed to not have said "I will choose my parents, but I don't want my mother to have an abortion". If you believe that you were pro-choice, then you were pro-life, otherwise you could have chosen to remain out there somewhere in the universe.
But when it comes to women who have decided to "just do it", because they were told before that it was their responsibility, then kind of leaves the man out of the decision making process, and regardless of how much we say "it is their body and their right" then that's selfish because the woman has taken it upon herself to remove the decision from the man. Then sex simply becomes a purely physical act that has nothing to do with love or emotion. And how did we get from romantic love that involves two people, to just the decision of one person to avoid consequences?
There was a time when doctors didn't think much about removing a woman's uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix and parts of the vagina, particularly if a woman had already produced children or was beyond childbearing age. Hysterectomies were standard treatments for everything from anxiety (known back then as hysteria) to abnormal bleeding.
We now know that making the decision to have a hysterectomy should never be taken lightly. It not only closes the door to childbirth, it has other potential repercussions, beyond the risks posed by any surgery - bleeding, infection, reactions to anesthesia and injury to nearby organs, nerves and tissue. A hysterectomy can also cause the vaginal dryness, mood swings and hot flashes of menopause if the ovaries are also removed; impact sexual pleasure, particularly uterine orgasm; produce bladder and intestinal changes; and provoke emotional distress and depression.

Mirena (levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system) prevents pregnancy, most likely in several ways:
• Thickens cervical mucus to prevent sperm from entering your uterus
• Inhibits sperm from reaching or fertilizing your egg
• Makes the lining of your uterus thin
Both types of IUD prevent fertilization of the egg by damaging or killing sperm. The IUD also affects the uterine lining (where a fertilized egg would implant and grow).
Two types of IUDs are available in this country: one, called ParaGard, releases tiny amounts of copper; the other, called Mirena, releases localized amounts of a synthetic hormone, the progestin levonorgestrel. IUDs do not disrupt the menstrual cycle and, unlike the pill, they do not prevent ovulation; rather, they interfere with fertilization and implantation.
With ParaGard, which can remain in place for 10 to 12 years, copper stimulates production of fluid in the woman’s reproductive tract that kills sperm. Should an egg become fertilized, copper-induced changes in the uterus prevent implantation.
The hormonal IUD, which can last for five years, prevents pregnancy by thickening the cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to get to the fallopian tubes, where fertilization takes place. The hormone also impedes changes in the uterine lining that are needed for implantation of a fertilized egg.

If God created sex for reproduction, then condoms abortion masturbation and birth control is evil.
It would be hypocritical to just be against abortion in this case if you actually believe thats why sex exist.

THe IUD does not allow conception. I have had one for 4 yrs. I can tell you what my doctor told me about how it works..it blocks the sperm from entering the fallopian tubes, therefore conception cannot take place. If conception would take place (it is only 99% effective) it would result in a tubal pregnancy or a rare normal pregnancy.
How do you figure the IUD is the same as abortion?? If that is the case, I have probably had about 800 abortions with this thing to date. I am not buying it.
