My boyfriend and I were popular in high school. I was a cheerleader, he played football. Our life seemed perfect. But then, one thing completely changed my life forever. When I was seventeen, I got pregnant.

Yes she was brave but it is ridiculous that she had to be that brave. If you want to get rid of most “non-medically necessary” abortions then our society needs to make men responsible for their bodies as well. You don’t hear about men going to prison for murder if a baby is aborted- because it has nothing to do with valuing human life and everything to do with controlling women. If a man creates a life then he should be held legally liable to support that life until the child is 18. If he skips out he should be charged with child abandonment, abuse and neglect and it should be on his record forever.Even if it is in her womb – because “Life is precious and starts at conception.” If he doesn’t comply- he should be thrown in prison. Behind most women desperate enough to consider abortion is a careless man who isn’t stepping up. Get rid of those men and you will have less abortion. It takes 2 people to make a baby- make both people responsible for the life they created. Period.
The lesson of this video is: Religion is cancer. Without it, she would have gotten proper sex education, she wouldn't have been looked down upon and called a sinner for having sex.
Religion is not a cancer. Some people will find any excuse to look down on or belittle other people and many do use their religion, and are sadly taught to do so. Others use politics or race or gender. But if you actually look at many of the core beliefs in religions, they teach goodness and kindness toward others. Mine does. For example, if you actually read the Bible, Jesus didn't condone sins, but he didn't look down on people who committed them. He often forgave them, sat with them and patiently taught them the better way instead. He did chastise the Pharisees and Sadducees who acted like these people and self righteously judged away and only worked for power and social recognition. Their religion wasn't their motivation, it was their desire to be better than everyone else, or their misunderstanding of their own beliefs, or their embarrassment to be seen with the designated outcasts. Not all Muslims are terrorists and not all Christians are jerks.
