I didn't think family planning should have triggered ANY conflict! In fact, it hasn't until the Hyper Religious Right got it into their head to make this country a "Christian" Country, with "Christian" traditions, and "Christian" based laws. . .which is ENTIRELY against the Constitution!
And. . .I cannot find the context in which I used "human sacrifice," so I cannot speak on that subject, unless you provide me with the context.
In addition, I believe that the prohibition on federal money being used for abortion is a perfect example of "Christian based law" that are unconstitutional. . .as the ONLY reason for such a prohibition is RELIGION.
If it was anything else than religious bigotry, people who, as I stated before, find it unconscionable to bring more children into this world, especially if they are not planned and wanted by the parents, when there are so many unwanted children who live in poverty, who live in foster home, whose chances for a decent life are minimal, and many millions of children all over the world who will die of hunger, or easily preventable illness due to over-population, would ALSO have the right to request the PROHIBITION OF FEDERAL MONEY BEING USED to bring those unwanted children into the world, and to pay for their (very poor) education, just to lock them up in jails and pay for their keep in jail!
If EVERY child was wanted, there would be better education, and less crime, and less emprisonment. And to work toward reaching that elusive goal of EVERY CHILD being born because of a strong desire by STABLE people to have a child, the BEST way is to allow EASY AND FREE access to contraception for ANY WOMEN who chooses to use it. . .without EVER forcing any woman into using birth control if they don't want to.
