That's so dumb, imo. Retirement should be 60 for both.

@1000thghost how does it baffle you religion gets pulled into abortion when religious groups push themselves into it? They can have their beliefs silently - they don't have to picket planned parenthood (which provides more than abortion services), attack people who provide abortions, or scare people away by saying they are going to hell or lie and say it's going to make them unable to ever have kids again. They're not killing babies either - you can miscarry before you even know you were pregnant. Do you want to consider that killing babies too when a group of cell the size of a pea leaves your body and you don't even know? How dare you scold women for making the decision that's right for them. It's great that you wanted to keep the baby that was forced on you, but others shouldn't have to because you think your way is right, hence why the right to choose what you want without infringing on another persons right is so important.

That can lead to coercion if the women is in an abusive relationship.

Don't you mean bee-t him to it?

Being healthy/overweight/underweight and being a nice person are two different things. They don't correlate. People know they need to drop pounds or gain pounds, but they aren't their fat. They have personality that isn't dependent on body size. Not once did I say being overweight (from fat not muscle) or underweight was healthy. All I said was weight doesn't equate to being a good person.

@purplepumpkin I second that statement.

Still haven't given an actual reason to make it illegal besides your religion. Public policy should not be built upon any religion.

@meatball2012 the Bible (which was written by humans not by God himself) also says you shouldn't wear mixed clothing (Leviticus 19:19), not to get tattoos (Leviticus 19:28), getting remarried after divorce (Mark 10:11–12), not to let women speak in church (1 Corinthians 14:34), and the list goes on and on, so what else are you going to cherry pick? I was raised and baptized Catholic but once I found out how cherry picked the bible was, I could not take any part of the religion seriously. People who make law based on the religion they follow and impose it onto others are terrible people. Not everyone follows a religion and no one should be told that "abortion is wrong because my god said so" - that is no argument for making it illegal. Making abortion illegal may make you feel good inside, but it won't stop it. Take a look at South America, China, etc., illegal abortions are quite common. All you do by making it illegal is making it harder to get and done by untrained people.

Both is good.
