Are you saying that you think the pro-lifers are the kind of people that wouldn't donate much to combat breast cancer anyway, so it may not have hurt the charity to stick with planned parenthood?

But I do think that people who care about a positive relationship between SGK and PP are probably more likely to be women who care more actively about getting every women the proper education and preventative care (on the basis that people who don't want PP funded by SGK don't want PP don't want it funded by anyone. The loss of the positive aspects of PP doesn't seem to affect their opinions, even though there isn't yet a good alternative). I realize the world isn't so black and white, but I am trying to present my opinion as it currently stands.

I also think there is a lack of proof that the pro-lifers will bring in more money than the charity would have if it had maintained the status quo, though Sar and Ray do have good arguments.

The most annoying part is in the sixth paragraph- abortions are only a small part of their thing - 02/02/2012 05:08:07 PM 1083 Views
I agree. - 02/02/2012 05:20:17 PM 996 Views
I can understand it though. - 02/02/2012 05:45:55 PM 1055 Views
I can too, it just isn't for me. - 02/02/2012 05:58:33 PM 965 Views
Actually, there are longer-acting forms of birth control than the pill. - 03/02/2012 12:37:42 AM 978 Views
I do think that preventing abortions is their primary goal. - 03/02/2012 01:08:05 AM 941 Views

You're taking an issue of objective facts and treating it like a day of playground gossip. - 09/02/2012 03:47:06 AM 966 Views
No, your source, in which there is very little that is objective, did that for me. - 11/02/2012 02:59:45 AM 988 Views
I see you have continued to provide no factual arguments. - 14/02/2012 04:53:28 AM 1225 Views
I presented factual rebuttals. - 19/02/2012 01:56:45 AM 1017 Views
You continue to miss the point. - 23/02/2012 10:22:24 PM 1107 Views
Well, yes. - 04/02/2012 11:14:47 PM 1027 Views
A silent majority may as well not exist, if it has no tangible effects. - 05/02/2012 12:54:34 AM 971 Views
You ignoring it is not the same thing as it having no tangible effect. - 05/02/2012 02:11:36 AM 1064 Views
Ignoring what? You haven't shown me anything solid. - 05/02/2012 05:25:23 AM 964 Views

Right - 02/02/2012 06:24:14 PM 1025 Views
Do you see a way Komen could have avoided pissing off one side? - 02/02/2012 06:55:36 PM 973 Views
No, I don't. I don't believe I said that? - 02/02/2012 07:53:50 PM 881 Views
You didn't; I inferred it from the way you phrased that ("if she HAS to..."). Sorry. - 02/02/2012 08:06:11 PM 963 Views
I know I'm not always clear. - 02/02/2012 08:32:47 PM 966 Views
