I'm Christian but I could not give the slightest shit about abortion. I worked for a gyne that performed them and saw the pathology reports all the time. It's literally a little spongy hemorrhagic tissue they are removing. It's such a nothing, and when you see the waiting room full of women you realize that EVERYONE across cultures and religions get abortions. I saw Mennonite women and women in full burqas out there, and Christian women praying on their knees.

Have the procedure and get on with your life. Don't let a few cells get in the way of your plans. It's a decision between you and your doctor and nobody else.

Incidentally I offered on Facebook to mail any American women the abortion pill, and Facebook immediately banned me for 30 days for selling illicit substances. I ended up being interviewed by Vice about it funnily enough.

facebook is pro-fascism. you can tell by how they moderate. don't use fascist-supporting websites. get your friends and family off of them best you can

I wish all my old online friends would migrate elsewhere. Facebook is the devil.

I'm convinced that everyone who is against abortion believes that all pregnancies never have complications. or are from loving supportive relationships. or are completely wrapped up in their own world they believe they have a right to have a say in everyone's business.
