I also agree with thehandsom when it comes to religious education. Although I think that a multiple-religious education wouldnt be a bad idea either. Each teenager could be taught the basic beliefs of the worlds major faiths, the basic religious practices and the backgrounds behind these etc.

I think that government should be involved in things like this. We are not talking about just your body weight or body shape, we are talking about a potential life, about a future human being. To you probably it has no meaning: it is just an ameba. It is so sad that human life is so cheap to you. You allow it being so easily slaughtered just like animals are for religious celebrations. Following your mind it means that everyone should have a right to chop off their hands or legs just because they think they can do so? The government then should enter into such cases.
I don´t think it would be a good idea to drive abortion underground and that is what would happen. It´s against the law to steal, but it goes on.
There would be a great many do-it-yourself abortions, with horrific consequences.

Choice is one of the defining characteristics of being human. Given that, to take choice away from women is to dehumanize them....so what do you think of that, oh lover of humans?
You are AWESOME!

This is what happens in State schools, in England and Wales between the ages of 5 and 16 although 50% of the teaching is about Christianity. It is taught as "This is what ´x´ believes. This is a festival celebrated by ´y´. This is how ´z´ worships." It is educatin rather than instruction.

I was answering to alameda.
And I am not superficial at all. I take it serious. I thought a LOT on this subject. I often changed my mind: many times towards pro-abortion.
You obviously take it serious. But also so far the only reason you gave that women might have, has been weight issues. That does make you sound very superficial, at least when it comes to your opinion on women.
I thought about this subject a lot too. If I were to get pregnant from the one I love any time before we planned, I would nto have an abortion. I think that with a little bit of effort, I could work to finish my education (and save my own life), and make money to provide the life of the child to be born. But this is my own personal opinion, which I have considered, and made a decision upon. I wish for every woman to have that choice, and to it be the way she sees fit.
So what is your opinion on the morning after pill then?

I completely agree with you on this. But following now you, we also shouldn´t prohibit drugs and alcohol since it would drive them unerground.
Well, in my country we don´t prohibit soft drugs, and as far as I´m aware, the illegal drug scene is not that big as it used to be and therefore less hard to track down.
But, the US is probably too big to keep it in control the way we do. This was more just a side note.
I agree that prohibitin abortion will lead to scenes we have often seen at the news: special ships in ´secret´ harbours that provide dangerous abortions for women. Then we will loose ´two´ lives, if we consider that cell a life.

it´s not about being "pro-abortion" is being "anti" a dictactor or anyone else telling you what is correct and right when it comes to your own body.
If they decide that under no circumstance are you able to have an abortion will they also gaurentee to pay for a child you cannot afford to raise, or better yet force a father to be a father 100%. Or be certain to remove a child born to a crack addicted mother that might have had an abortion but now is raising a child born addicted because DCFS case workers are at an all time low, and not always able to help children born into unbearable conditions. If they could fix all these problems first maybe then they could take away CHOICE, they have to give another one first.

Yes. I based my idea on the education I have received in the first 3 years of highschool in the Netherlands. The lesson is not called ´religion´ or anything. It is called something that can be translated as ´View on life´. The latter 3 years of that education consisted of some more philosophical point of view, with introduction of persons as Freud, reading the little prince, and thinking about things as abortion and euthansia.
An education instead of instruction, that is what I tried to say!!
