It seems that the debate concerning pregnancy/abortion has taken an interesting turn. See the video below for details, but in a nut shell ("Help! I'm in a nutshell!") there is a proposal that outlines abortion as anything that interferes with a baby being born...from conception to birth.
Some define pregnancy as "from conception" and some "from implantation"...and as science has gotten more precise I doubt there are many who would describe a growing baby in the womb as a "blob of tissue" as they used to say....however the debate now is WHEN life begins. Fertilization? Implantation? A heartbeat? Viability outside the womb?
The Bible says the the Lord knits us together inside the womb.
God is the orchestrator of ALL life.
So the question is:
Should drugs or devices that cause a mom to not have the baby that was fertilized in her womb be considered as an abortion?
This video raises that question and points out the fact that "the pill", IUD's and the morning after pill all cause a fertilized egg to be aborted. Should a health care worked be disciplined for not wanting to participate in anything that would cause an abortion; including prescribing these drugs/devices?
Interesting. My stance is, I am sure, obvious. These things do cause abortions and although they are popular and widely used, the right thing under God is what matters, not popularity. I do not feel that a person should be put in the position of losing his/her job if they do not comply with an abortion causing procedure.
It is also interesting to me that after SO many years it is being noticed that the pill does cause abortions. Do you know how many people have told me I am insane for saying that? That if the pill really did cause an abortion then there would be millions of women not taking it. That if it did cause abortions then preachers all across the land would preach against it's use.
Riiiight.
This assumes that people care more about what is right than being popular.
They don't.

Hey...thanks so much for posting this!! I too believe that the pill is just another way of killing a little one. Jim and I have talked so much about this and are so concerned for the believers in our country who are completely blinded to this truth. And our "wonderful" drug companies who push the pill and other types of birth control with "shorter and fewer periods, better skin, etc." make me SICK!! Not only are these types of birth control causing abortions, Jim and I also strongly believe they are part of the reason for so much cancer in women. So...although Bush has made some stupid decisions while in office, this one I like a lot. Good for him!
Yeah, the pill commercial drive me nuts as well. They do not mention the other issues it causes (besides killing your baby, of course)...like ruining the lining of your uterus thus possibly making it difficult to conceive...etc.
And yes, the pill contributes to cancer...as does an actual abortion. Breast cancer, usually. Hormone replacement has been thrown by the wayside (pretty much) when they "discovered" that those hormones cause cancer...so what about the pill? haven't heard much about that in the news lately....
