Planned Parenthood helps irresponsible

Posted September 29, 2007 11:00 pm

The Sept. 27 letter from Jeffrey Biss doesn't hold a pregnant woman's bag of water. He asserts that sex education and contraceptives provided by Planned Parenthood will prevent unwanted pregnancies and resulting abortions.

Contraceptives can fail and often encourage more irresponsible sex (outside of marriage), resulting in more unwanted pregnancies. Then we must decide what to do with the baby that is created the instant a woman's egg is fertilized by a man's sperm, to be delivered nine months later.

Abortion is death to the baby. The morning after pill is death to the baby. The only responsible option is to have and love the baby.

Planned Parenthood fosters irresponsible sex and kills the resulting babies. Who would want that in Aurora and the Fox Valley?
