    I say kids should learn in bio or sex-ed class

    a) unborn is human
    b) how unborn child develop in womb (with pics)
    c) what abortion does (graphic pics optional)

    All basic settled science. Teach the facts, libs!!!
    Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

          This person's objections come in two flavors: they don't understand the issue, or they create a strawman. Unsurprising for an opinion piece in the NY Post.

          Edit: To elaborate: solutions to climate change, GMO regulation = strawman, abortion, IQ, transpeople = misunderstanding.

              The press likes to portray the Democrats as the party of science but the fact is that the left can be just as anti-science as anyone on the right can be. Some of the things that the radicals in the environmentalist movement support not only have no scientific backing but fly directly in the face of scientific findings.

              And while you can find anti-vaccine hysteria on both sides, again it is more prevalent on the left and the places with the most loopholes allowing exemptions from vaccination are most often found in decidedly Democrat dominated areas -- which, "coincidentally" is also where we also find the most outbreaks. As an article in the Washington Post notes:

              Source: Vaccine deniers stick together. And now they�re ruining things for everyone.

              Source

              Also, according to various polls, Democrats are far more likely to believe that we are being monitored by UFOs and the government is concealing it. They also are more likely to believe in things like fortune telling and astrology.

              I'm always still in trouble again

              "Overall I would rate the withdrawal from Afghanistan as by far the best thing Biden's done" --Starlight
              "Of course, human life begins at fertilization that’s not the argument." --Tassman

                  Are you probing for an answer to that?

                        Do you feel the same way about unborn chickens? If not, why not?

                          God created man and woman to have dominion over all other creatures. Sanctity of human life doesn't apply to food - born or unborn, hatched or unhatched.

                            You believe that unborn chickens are human?
                            Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
