We are discussing abortion, how it's done. This is not a "post your beliefs" thread.
Oh? Is that how you explain this? "That would be a lot on the plate of a 15 y/o girl. Up at night with a squalling infant. Breastfeeding or bottle feeding? Doctor visits. The new mom wants to go to school events, dances, go on dates, has to do homework, go to the library after school. She and her parents may be shunned by other students and neighbors and church members because she is an unmarried mother. And on and on." What did that have to do with how abortions are done?
I have never stated that I agree with it and support it.
Yep. It's the ever popular "straddle the fence" option. Miss Evasion strikes again.

It was part of our discussion, Mr. Abuse to Confuse.

You were supporting a belief of yours that a fifteen year old girl should be able to have an abortion so she would not have to be shunned by other students or miss dances.
"Miss Evasion" should be your name. But you can show me to be wrong by simply coming out with a position on abortion instead of being evasive by straddling the fence.

Abortion was not mentioned. Do you deny "it would be a lot on the plate of a fifteen-year-old girl" to be pregnant and have a baby?
"Miss Evasion" should be your name. But you can show me to be wrong by simply coming out with a position on abortion instead of being evasive by straddling the fence.
I have never stated that I agree with it and support it. Thus, I do not agree with it or support it.

It was mentioned when you first posed the question.
Of course it would. That’s why I, unlike you, say we should encourage young girls to abstain from sex until marriage.
Thus you are a fence straddler, ever fearful of taking a position. But all of your comments are pro-abortion.

As I said, a fence straddler, for neither do you oppose it.

Deaths from flu in the last 10 years ranged from 12,000 to 61,000 annually with an average of 37,000 per year.
Deaths from Covid-19 is approaching 700,000 and will go far past that. Annualized, the death total is over 500,000 and increasing.
To your 3,000,000 flu cases annually, so far there have been 41,200,000+ Covid-19 cases in 20 months.
Summary:
Flu cases ----------- 3,000,000
Covid cases -------- 25,000,000 (annualized from 20 months)
Flu deaths ---------- 37,000 annually
Covid deaths ------- 500,000 annually - projected to Dec. 31, 2021.
Trump began the invalid comparison between flu and Covid. It was widely debunked at the time. I'm surprised you are still using it.
you missed the point .I was NOT comparing the covid pandemic of today with the annual flu .I was comparing the inevitable covid endemic of the future with the current annual flu endemic .
Covid will not disappear and any expectation that it will is delusional .The more realistic view is that ]enough people will gain immune protection from vaccination and from natural infection such that there will be less transmission and much a less COVID in terms of hospitalization and death .
You know this is a fact because the vaccines loose effectiveness real quick ;within a couple of months . The strongest immunity is in those who have had the virus and the vaccine.
Vaccines are a part of the answer . But the constant dismissals of effective therapeutics is what is driving up the death rate ..
The 1918 flu ,the 1957 flu ,the 1968 flu ,the 2009 swine flu all were pandemic that turned into endemics . As virus' matures they become less deadly . They are not trying to kill their host . That would be self defeating .

Evasive?
Good thing we elected Biden to get this Covid deal under control. Covid deaths are now nearly at two thousand per day.
If only those fundie Southern white guys (and their wives) would get those darn covid vaccinations and wear masks and stop waving their arms around, "God will protect me."

The largest demographic that has so called vaccine hesitancy is American Blacks . And I don't blame them at all for their mistrust of the medical community .

You are prejudiced against white conservative Christians. In this case you were wrong. Isn’t it terrible what prejudice does? It causes a person to indict an entire group of people falsely.

Flat out wrong. Your opposition to vaccines and masking is deadly.

No prejudice. I'm still part of that cohort.

Falsely? They refuse to be vaccinated, refuse to wear masks, refuse to social distance.

They are the most ignorant religious group in the nation. Among other proofs, is that they are the largest demographic that voted for Trump.
