Dear America,

I still don't understand why the fuck abortion is such a big deal (and on the election table). The rest of the world has moved on and embraced it, why can't you just get over whatever the deal you have with it and move on to more pressing topics like overpopulation (hey, abortion helps fix this!), fixing up places you blew up, what's gonna happen when you run out of oil, and global warming?

Sincerely, liedra.

Dear liedra,

Jesus says fetuses are people too. And that queers are Satanists. And that I ain't no monkey!

We blow shit up so they'll grow to accept Jesus Christ as their lord and savior. None of this mu-hammed crap. What's up with that headgear? I mean, come on!

Love,
the Bible belt

P.S. Jesus also says global warming doesn't exist. Get with it, Australia!

Dear Bible Belt,

Mmm I just looooove the smell of hypocrisy in the morning.

Love, liedra

P.S. You suck! And so does your celestial teapot!

Dear Bible Belt,
The Pope apparently disagrees with Jesus.

Sincerely, long-haired hippy.

Does that mean the Vatican is in the Axis of Evil?

Man, if only you knew.

To answer your question, stibbons, Catholicism is a false faith and the Pope is the Antichrist.

Dude, what do they teach you people?

Hah! I knew the Vatican was on the Axis of Evil!

The Pope is totally a terrist.

I had a scare a few months back and did my research, and I'd have to drive two hours to the nearest clinic around here x_x At least my county is really sensible and gives me cheap pills. ($7 a pack, woo.)

Do you guys get the morning-after pill? It went over-the-counter here (i.e. you don't need a prescription) a few years back, which is excellent, especially for scares (been there, done that) :) Before you had to get a doctor to sign off on it, which sucked for reasons I'm sure you understand.

Probably lucky that Australia only has a few big cities and I live in one -- I'm sure if you're out in the bush you'd have to go much further than 2 hours, but I know that there are a few near me ^^

It's actually OTC in the US, too, but uptight pharmacists are permitted to deny you the meds in some states. Generally, I advise people who care about this stuff to live in blue states, and hope the federal government doesn't shove something they don't want down their throats. I live in a blue city in a red state, right now. A Texas judge just overturned the law here that made it illegal to sell sex toys. Of course, people were selling them anyway. They were just called "massagers" and "condom demonstration devices." (Seriously!)

I agree as well but think that "embraced" is an inappropriate word choice!

Did you see http://www.smh.com.au/news/environment/vatican-updates-seven-deadly-sins/2008/03/10/1205125819939.html ?

Abortion's up there right next to pedophilia.

Conservative religious groups donate to campaign funds and can influence the public in how they vote- like it or lump it that's perhaps why abortion is still (nominally) on the agenda there....
