Editor,
I have been reading the responses to my abortion letter and must say it seems to be the major concern is control. Women were given all the control they needed the day the birth control pill went on the market. Now women could plan their lives as to when they wanted a child.
There was no need for abortion laws because there would be no unwanted pregnancies. Of course you do have to take the pill.
And the argument that who will support the unwanted child is a complete cop out. There are people waiting in line and there is no excuse for it. Rape, incest and health issues for the woman are addressed in the law.
I refuse to apologize or justify my Christian faith. Every time there is an unwanted pregnancy, women have lost control. They could have taken the pill, been in control of their own bodies and not be faced with the abortion decision.
