Equal Opportunity
13 March 2006
The Center for Reason crunches government numbers and suggests (relying, somewhat inexactly, on local religious demographics) that Christians have as many abortions as the general population, and that Catholics have more. While this will probably come as no surprise to abortion providers who have treated the same women who picket their clinics, what's left to be seen is how the report, which was undertaken "to study the premise: 'Christians have fewer abortions than non-Christians,'" will be spun: as a "gotcha" moment catching hypocritical believers being just as "sinful" as non-Christians, or as a positive proof that the majority of women still want self-determination over their bodies.
