I definitely am NOT recommending Planned Parenthood, sorry if I didn't
make that clear! But epigee does not refer for abortion, I checked
the site very thoroughly before passing it on. Birthright,
Optionline, and similar sites (see the "Choosing Life" link file) are
probably what we will be using the most. But when I run across the
odd question that is less about abortion and more about women's
medicine generally, epigee could be a good way to provide that info
without accidentally spreading pro-abortion propoganda.

I know that 54 percent of unwanted pregancy they were on birth
control. I also think that planned parenthood has birth control and
most places that give birth control do refrer to abortions. I think
that we should stick with a site that does not talk about b/c that is
just my opinion. I think that Birthrights website and other crisis
pregnancy centers websites has all the info they need and they will be
told on the abortion procdure and the risks just my 2 cents.

don't think people should be having pre-marital sex in the first
place. I don't preach about abstinence either; I just try to focus on
the child and the devastating health effects of abortion. But I think
we can all be united around the abortion issue from our different
perspectives. The important thing is that women know they have a
support system if they choose not to kill their babies. The sad thing
is that girls often are coerced into abortions, such as this girl.
When you read this kind of story, you realize what a lie the term
"pro-choice" is.
