FDA CONSIDERS ALLOWING MORNING AFTER PILL TO BE SOLD OVER THE COUNTER

I do see what you mean. And having done some background reading on sites that I wouldn't normally visit (SPUC for example) I also see that the medical and moral definitions of both conception and abortion differ, at least in this country.

Which of course brings us back to the IUD, but we're keeping quiet about that (couldn't find a Sshh! emoticon, insert one with your imagination)

I just wonder why it shouldn't be left up to the individual woman to decide. Not every woman taking the morning after pill will have conceived, and of those that have, the "baby" is unwanted and less than 72 hours old. At this stage isn't the life of the mother more important?

Tcha, I'm pro-choice so I don't think I'll ever understand anyway.
