* 37% of women killing babies by abortion were Protestant, (include those who identified as “Christian” but who did not specify a denomination) while 28% were Catholic, and 20% identified themselves as born-again, evangelical, charismatic or fundamentalist (in 2000, some 13% of abortion patients aged 18 and older identified as born-again or evangelical before the question was reworded slightly for the 2008 survey), while 27% gave no religious affiliation, increasing from 22% in 2000. (Protestants were under-represented among those committing abortion in proportion to the total number of Protestants nationwide, and the relative abortion rate for this group was lower than the rate for all women.)<ref name=patients />

Less than one percent of all abortions are due to rape. Abortion does not liberate women. It liberates men from the responsibilities of raising children, as well as responsibility for their sexual behavior, including emotional and financial support. Here is a comparison. The founding feminists Susan B. Anthony and Liz Stanton were pro-life. The radical feminists (feminazis) believe that pregnant women are inferior to non-pregnant women. The biggest financial contributor to abortion rights is the Playboy Foundation, which is supportive of the philosophy of uncommitted, anonymous sex without consequences; women are reduced to the status of a consumer item which, if “broken” by pregnancy, can be “fixed” by abortion. A large majority of women who got an abortion said that they did so because they felt pressured by others. This is why before abortion became legal in the US, women who got an abortion did not receive jail time, but instead, get treated as a second victim while the abortionist gets punished. Instead of legalizing abortion in cases of rape, overturn the 1977 US Supreme Court case of [[Coker v. Georgia]], in which the Supreme Court struck down the death penalty for rapists as a violation of the eighth amendment.

Disability does not do anything to take away happiness. Eugenics is a waste of lives and delays the research needed to treat disabilities. We need to help the disabled live independent lives. There eventually be a cure for them as technology advances. In July 2013, scientists at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester have learned to shut down the extra chromosome that causes Down’s syndrome.<ref>
