Thought I would add some numbers so we can see what is being talked about. There have been more abortions in this country since Roe vs. Wade than all of this nations war dead. There has been more abortions than all the lives lost on Americas highways since the invention of the automobile. There have been more abortions than all the lives lost in airplane crashes world wide. As a matter of fact, there has been more abortions in this country than all of these combined.

Education - Reality

Sexual problems rise out of ignorance. Every thing on Earth is engaged in intercourse. Children are Sexual from birth.  Teaching about the beauty and wonder of sexuality and the sacredness of self (not necessarily from an outside source) and sexual relationships and giving the ability to say yes/no from an early age, respecting choice....all and more to bring awareness of the reality of life, life forming sexual energy could change the perspective of future generations.  Putting sexuality and conception in the realm of sin, shame and guilt is such a bad idea  - ignorance leads to action that is uninformed, misunderstood and often full of regret at some point when awareness awakens within.  I had two abortions when I was a teenage, neither for a good reason both out of ignorance.  I also had two still births.  I know, now, the life within is willing and wanting to come into this existence - as we all desire at the time of our birth.  I celebrate life and feel compassion for those who feel they have no other choice than to deny it.  Thanks for writing.
