It’s totally fine if you believe that life starts at conception.
The thing that actually baffles me are the states that passed anti-abortion laws, but struggle to provide adequate health care, especially for those who are not financially stable.

I found this article, “States with more abortion restrictions have higher maternal and infant mortality”, but feel free to correct or educate me on the topic.

Edit: removed “this article” appearing twice and tried to fix preview

    Those support organizations do exist to a certain extent. It’s often an even bigger problem. It’s “Women’s Health Centers”, faith-based “insurance” companies, and gay conversion camps. Catholic hospitals have issues, but they’re the least problematic part of this.

      Yeah there’s a church near me that has a banner displayed with a picture of an infant saying, “don’t abort me. Help is available. Talk to someone inside.”

      No phone number or email to contact, just a “come inside.”

      Allegedly (coming from a neighbor) if you go inside they try to sell you sketchy insurance and not much else.

      Oh I’m aware, I just don’t count them because helping new families isn’t actually the point of those.
