The Feminist movement was taken over by proDeath women who believe that killing their children is more liberating then doing what women are supposed to do, namely deliver their children into the world.
Susan B. Anthony, one of the first women in America to challenge the dominance of men openly and to get arrested for doing so, knew what abortion was and wasn't shy about telling us.
In her publication The Revolution, was written:"Guilty? Yes. No matter what the motive, love of ease, or a desire to save from suffering the unborn innocent, the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed. It will burden her conscience in life, it will burden her soul in death; But oh, thrice guilty is he who drove her to the desperation which impelled her to the crime!"
Abortion was referred to as "child murder."
The Revolution, 4(1):4 July 8, 1869"We want prevention, not merely punishment. We must reach the root of the evil...It is practiced by those whose inmost souls revolt from the dreadful deed."
The Revolution, 4(1):4 July 8, 1869"All the articles on this subject that I have read have been from men. They denounce women as alone guilty, and never include man in any plans for the remedy."
The Revolution, 4(1):4 July 8, 1869

ProDeath individuals love bringing up the fact that around 80% of the women who have abortions are "religious". They may claim to be "religious" but I don't think God smiles every time a woman kills her child.
Women have been sold the lie that killing their children in the womb is liberating, that they have exercised their freedom of choice. Unfortunately most know while their child is being killed and afterwards that they will suffer forever.
It's not all bleak though!
For those of you who have had abortions, pray to God and ask him for his love, salvation and forgiveness. He will give it to you. He is an equal opportunity God and doesn't pick and choose whom he will save. As long as we ask for his forgiveness and try our best to be with him in our thoughts, our prayers and our daily lives, he gives us the gift of everlasting life!
As for you men out there who didn't speak out in support of your wives and girlfriends when they were struggling with pregnancy, and you did nothing to help them. If you denied them, you were cowards who allowed the women to suffer and kill your children. You will continue being a coward until you face the crime you committed.
Just in case you think you aren't good enough for his forgiveness and blessings, nobody is, but he gives us a pass anyway.
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" - Romans 3:23
For those of you who are struggling with thoughts of abortion, seek help. There are thousands of agencies out there waiting for your phone call. If you call an abortion clinic, what do you think they are going to offer you? Counseling? Think again. They will convince you that you will be better off killing your child. If you go to a barber shop, you will get your hair cut. In Virginia contact http://www.birthmothers.org/, nationwide contact http://www.care-net.org/.
Whatever your shame, whatever your burden, whatever your guilt, anger, sadness, frustration or suffering...pray and you will be healed. Your cares will be lifted from you as if they never existed and you will be free to pass God's love, his salvation, and forgiveness on to others.
Jesus comes to us every day and asks us if we're ready. It's up to us to turn to him and say "yes, I am, please help me".
Are you ready?
For those of you who are ready to stop the horrible crime of abortion, which kills one of God's children every 30 seconds, join us at http://www.marchtogether.com. On the first Friday of every month we call, fax, email, write or march at government buildings to let our representatives know we aren't going away and we will grow in our numbers until they make abortion a crime, as it should be. Abortion is murder, not a "choice" and to do nothing to help end it is to support it. It's like watching someone getting killed right in front of you while you turn your head so you don't have to watch.
Join us in the Monthly Call for Life at http://www.marchtogether.com and challenge others to do the same.
It's horrendous when a woman is forced into a "choice" of only abortion or adoption. Even if a woman feels so incredibly pressured that she considers abortion, by the time she goes through 9 months of pregnancy, labor and birth, she is a mother and her baby is her own son or daughter. At that point, few moms or dads "just don't want" their baby; more often they are being pressured.
Hospitals today try to keep moms and babies together to prevent the harm that comes from separating them.

To lower the abortion rates, I would suggest that we promote male (as well as female) repsonsibility for pregnancy prevention. I would also suggest we acknowledge mothers and fathers as parents, whether they are single or married.
Because pressuring pregnant women leads to an increase in abortion as well as adoption.
