    I am a Catholic who wants to continue to decrease abortions in this country. Best way isn’t a ban or telling women what to do, but to give greater access to contraception services and providing a stronger safety net on finances and healthcare.

        As a Catholic, what can you do to encourage the church to lift their ban on contraceptives? That ban is definitely part of the problem.

        That's what pro-choice advocates would like to see as well!

        Exactly. We can do this.

        70% of US poor (deemed lazy & undeserving by GOP) are women and children. Birth control & free childcare & college would reduce abortions drastically. We can afford to support mothers & children if we stop cutting taxes for the ultra rich.

        A Catholic organization in our town called birthright is really cool. They counsel the woman and help her get on her feet and follow her through her life. To me that’s pro-life.

        Yes, greater access, improved education in family planning (letting women and men know what all their options are), are key pieces.

        One thing we don't talk about when it comes to abortions is the role of men. Men refusing to wear condoms or not taking initiative to wear.

        I'm not pro choice or pro life. I believe in God, but not in religion. No matter what a woman decides, that decision is the best decision she will make for herself. Subjective biases and religious interpretations take a back seat.
