i'm missing whatever correlation your trying to make here... are you saying that people who abort thier kids abuse them? obviously not... if that statistic is true, what it means is that of the people who have had kids, abuse has gone up. abortions would make the number of total births lower, so just by the amount of births being lower compared to the number of abuses, the percent will go up. abuse itself could have gone up as well, but that statistic (where did you get it from, btw) doesn't tell which it is.

also, if abuse has gone up, it's the people who are choosing to have the children that are abusive, not the ones who don't. so i don't see that stat. helping your position.

another question. so you think abortion is murder and should be made illegal. why are you right when others think differently on this subject? why are your morals better than that of others? and, if your views were to be shared by the majority, why should they be imposed on the minority, when it is something that really doesn't impact you (ie. a pregnant lady 10 states away whom you've never met nor never will)?

bonus points to you if you can answer any questions in the last paragraph without mentioning your religous opinions.
