I think you missed the post where I said I was against medically induced abortion.

ABORTION does not occur without a PREGNANCY.

A woman is not pregnant until the fertilized egg has implanted and begun to develop into an actual human being.

I really get irked when people try to discourage women from using effective contraceptives by spreading misinformation like this.
