This is not about protecting life. It is about promoting a religious viewpoint.
Florida Christians Seek to Criminalize Birth Control
Too few people realize the degree to which America's anti-choice movement isn't just about ending women's ability to choose whether to carry pregnancy to term or not, but is also about ending both men and women's ability to make choice about birth control. The entire anti-choice movement is fundamentally about controlling women and controlling sexuality, not about "preserving life" as they try to portray themselves.
The most blatant example of this comes from Florida where a proposed constitutional amendment defines a "person" as existing "from the beginning of the biological development of that human being." This could make birth control pills a crime because it's possible for them to prevent a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterine wall.
"By their definition, anything that you might do to interfere with the implantation of a fertilized egg would be tantamount to murder," |
