Poverty, Decadence and Abortion

Desperately poor women have abortions, voluntarily or because desperately poor men force them to.

Ludicrously rich and spoilt women have abortions, voluntarily or because ludicrously rich and spoilt men force them to.

Poverty causes abortion.

Decadence causes abortion.

Eschew both.

And that includes voting against both.

    What exactly is your expertise on this subject?

    Which one, poverty or decadence?

    How do you know what causes abortion? What is your research? Are you medically qualified?

    Abortion isn't a joke, actually.

    Nor is either poverty or decadence.

    Or eugenic ideology (a decadent response to poverty), or sexual promiscuity (a feature both of poverty and of decadence), or pornography (likewise), or...

    If these things do not cause abortion, then what does?

    I asked what your expertise was. Why are ducking the question?

    Well, what's yours, then? An obstetrician couldn't necessarily answer to the question in the way that you mean.

    I have never witnessed an abortion being performed, but so what? The people performing it might very well have no idea of the woman's circumstances.

    Of course, you are just being facetious, and I doubt that you are much over 17. In fact, I don't see how you possibly can be. If you are, then you badly need to get a life.

    You are no stranger to either poverty or decadence David.

    But I have never quite fallen into either. Even if I had several very, very lucky escapes.

    He'll learn, he'll learn.

    Now, back on topic. This post is not about the more colourful chapters in my life story.

    Pornography causes abortion?

    Of course. Imagine how many abortions the "actresses" have to have.

    And the Playboy Foundation is a major funder of abortion, including of "Catholics For A Free Choice".

    So let me get this right. You make statements about the reasons women have abortions even though you have no expertise, medical or statistical. Is that correct?

    Interesting that you have left Jiminy's latest up for five hours without replying to it. I suppose it speaks for itself. The poor, sweet, innocent, boy.

    Does he really believe that there are "statistical" data on this sort of thing?

    Oh, yes. Which mediocre Sixth Former would not? Or I should say, as you do, "poor, sweet, innocent, boy".

    He'll learn.
