“#30 — But no adult in this country who engages in consensual sex is in a position to claim that she didn’t have the option of using birth control.
Condoms can break. Your position, summed: “sucks to be you.””
Condoms can break. I’ve had one failure in one my whole life, although fortunately, it wasn’t a tragedy. My wife and I weren’t ready for kids yet, but if it had happened, it wouldn’t have been a disaster.
We do know a couple with a condom failure whose marriage plans were moved up a bit. It wasn’t the end of the world.
But guess what? That’s not the cause of the enormous number of abortions going on in this country. As the Los Angeles Times article I linked to above pointed out, some people are just too lazy to use birth control–they don’t even try. Abortion is simpler.
If you don’t think that abortion is murder, fine, I’ll buy your claim that you don’t believe it. But reducing your support for abortion to convenience is rather like arguing that armed robbery should be okay, because it is so darned inconvenient to get a job–and you don’t have to kill the clerk everytime you rob a store.
