Regarding the US Department of Health and Human Services proposal that would redefine contraception as abortion (by changing the definition of 'pregnant' -- and thus prohibit federal grant recipients from requiring employees to provide contraception or advice regarding it), theweaselking wrote on 2008-07-16:

I'm just waiting for the logical next steps:

1. "Life begins at penetration", so saying "no" after things start is murder.

2. "Life begins at lust", so saying "no" is illegal.

3. "Life begins at menstruation", so not being pregnant is illegal.

At that point, women will have finally taken their proper role, according to the Baptists.

Elsewhere, XNeeOhCon apparently saw a similar progression, writng on 2008-07-15:

I have the solution to this problem. We encourage them to continue this line of logic until they define abstinance as the ultimate birth control which is therefore the ultimate abortion. Then, after their heads explode, we come back in, clean up, and change the laws back to a reasonable level.
