In a similar vein I read a few weeks ago that those states in the US where they went furthest during the Bush era in restricting sex education and advice on contraception are also those where the rate of teenage pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases is rising at the highest rate.Graemehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05948656158638818739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27941559.post-72109875905075540302009-10-29T12:14:44.959+01:002009-10-29T12:14:44.959+01:00On the subject of abortion - the Guttmacher Instit...On the subject of abortion - the Guttmacher Institute, reported in the Economist of OCT 17th shines a light on what is happening world wide.<br />Conclusions - liberalsing abortion does not increase the number of abortions.<br />Criminalising abortions leads to deaths and other medical complications. (70k women p.a die from amateur abortions)<br /><br />The criminals in the vatican who object to birth control also condem many to aids.<br /><br />Liberalisation of abortion is just pratical common sense and combined with birth control leads to less women having to make dangerous decisions.greyspaniardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01880714699288049166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27941559.post-20235038634877808622009-10-25T23:39:53.687+01:002009-10-25T23:39:53.687+01:00Completely agree...I have one at the moment clingi...Completely agree...I have one at the moment clinging to me like a nasty virus.Troyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04736968624248579532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27941559.post-27639946340390530022009-10-25T22:54:56.862+01:002009-10-25T22:54:56.862+01:00@ejh

The message can more or less be summarised as "Don't forget to go to the demonstration you dummies".<br /><br />@Pueblo girl<br /><br />No doubt the bishop of Huesca-Jaen is already on his way to the Vatican to press the case for gender equality there. I've seen the film, if I remember rightly the Church wasn't exactly delighted with it.Graemehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05948656158638818739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27941559.post-11297210022617003342009-10-21T23:09:45.719+02:002009-10-21T23:09:45.719+02:00Alas, no subtitles...any chance of a rundown in En...Alas, no subtitles...any chance of a rundown in English for the hard of hearing?Judithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27941559.post-11304796114865536332009-10-21T21:22:43.864+02:002009-10-21T21:22:43.864+02:00Two things:

Same difference) suddenly discovered gender equality and called the reform "machista and injust". He seems to have forgotten that not so long ago (and still today in certain circles), his organisation used to tell battered women that their place was beside their violent husbands. So much for the church's gender equality agenda.<br /><br />Secondly, a day or so after, the TVE2 channel showed a film called "Los crímenes del Padre Amoro", about a priest who gets his girlfriend pregnant, and insists she has a backstreet abortion where she predictably dies. Nice programmng, TVE2!Pueblo girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04904318623281033442noreply@blogger.com
