identified van next to it.

It would be more appropriate if it were a white van. "Doctor" Lester will see you now.

Pregnant students not to have abortions as long as they don’t use discredited science.

You are 100% correct.

Or are they like the rest of the "religious" "right" which want kids to make babies but don't want to support them when the inevitable happens.

They’re arguing for a specific worldview that I don’t share. If someone buys it that’s on them.

Don't be naive and follow the money.

Just sayin'

In 1988 my wife and I were trying to have our first child. The was way before you could just go to the local pharmacy and get a cheap and reliable pregnancy test kit. Keep in mind also the both of us have always been very frugal. Both of us believe strongly in a penny saved, is a penny earned. So my wife found a place that advertised free pregnancy testing. We had no idea they were religious freaks as nothing led us to believe that was the case. OK, so great that will save us some money having it done at the Dr. When we first came in they gave us a sheet to fill out and most of it seemed pretty routine medical questions. One of the questions was whether or not we were considering an abortion to which we answered no.

So the wife goes back and after the test was initiated we both were led into another room and were again asked if we were considering an abortion. By this time warning bells were going off. We told them empathically no, that we were trying to conceive and have a child. By this time we were more or less hostages, because while we could certainly leave we wouldn't find out the test results. They then proceed to show us a film on abortions and it was extremely graphic, not to mention quite a bit of junk science thrown in about the high risk of abortion. After a few minutes of this we threaten to walk out at which point they told us the results of the test were inconclusive.

We wound up going to a real doctor and got a real pregnancy test. Lesson learned there's no such thing as a free lunch or free pregnancy test.

The short version is I'm not OK with religious groups doing this and you can bet your bottom dollar they are going to lie to people. If you look at the van they are already lying by pretending to offer "medical" service and concealing the true nature of what they are really doing.

You ok with that? “Pregnancy crisis centers” are notorious for lying coercing and intimidating their victims. But like they are good with god so it’s ok, right?

It's a con-man trying to get rich by scaring people.

Skeptical and fond of sandwiches. Deserves more credit than it gets.

Have the baby, give it up, we sell it! No burden for you, lotsa cash for us.

I won't deny the anti-abortion groups right to misinform students off campus, but if we're really going to thank God for something it's these young people shining a light on their tactics.

I'd say they made a difference, and that's commendable indeed. Kudos!

I wonder if they have prince Albert in a can

In my day, if you parked a van across the street from a school in an attempt to lure teenage girls, you were in line for an ass-beating.

INTOLERANCE, AMIRITE?

...I'm not Grumpy.



That seems more of a description for an in-organic solid fully mature humanoid classified by its capability of producing small motile gametes, just sayin'
