The one "Birth control is abortion" Many mainstream Catholics believe this and of course many fundamental groups. Even a morning after pill can unknowingly kill a life. One reason the Catholic church is against artificial means of birth control. This thinking is another reason birth control was not allowed in the US until the late 50's. Even for married couples. The other one is Atheism is the same as moral relativism. For believers (not just Christian) that is a justifiable mantra. Humanism is frowned upon compared to a faith in a super being. So while many religions permit secular education for men and women, it is still secondary to a religious belief.

Not all religions are against abortion. In Judaism for instance, abortion is permitted for any reason up to the first 40 days (or to quickening) If the mother's life is in danger, abortion is not only allowed, but required.

The rest of these most mainstream religions do not believe. This right wing thinking is OK for Fox audience. But they will believe anything they see on Fox. Thankfully, it's a relatively small audience.

Things I need to remember:
• Asking for help is not, as it turns out, fatal.
• Laughing is easier than pulling your hair out, and doesn't have the unfortunate side effect of making you look like a plague victim.
• Even the biggest tasks can be defeated if taken a bit at a time.
• I can write a paper the night before it's due, but the results are not all they could be.
• Be thorough, but focused.
• Trust yourself.
• Honesty, always.
