Don't be so idealistic; you know exactly what I mean. Abstinence is a terrible idea that no right-minded person is going to practice; it's something taught by the church and schools. I mean safe sex. What I said was nothing like 'every time you aren't having sex you're preventing a child from being made', what you're doing is counterproductive. If you have sex, you ejaculate, and 'you are inside' of a woman; that is where the 'potential' is. How exactly is there a huge difference if you end it with a 'shield' (condom) or 'sword' (abortion). It's the same result. Now yes, a logical person will try to defend with a shield first, and I'm assuming they will, but if that shield breaks why would they concede in defeat? I'm not being dishonest about or trying to justify anything, they're absolutely comparative. And yes, I know you claim to be pro-choice.
