I am a Christian Democrat. I believe that men should never even speak about abortion. It ONLY rests on a woman's concience what she does to her body and what is in it. Make it so that women can only vote on the topic. I know men have a *hand* in the creation of a child, but the woman is the one who does the rest.
SRY GOES A BIT OFF TOPIC FROM HERE ON
Laws are naturally based off of the Bible. People in the US think that not removing the 10 Commandments from a federal building denies their right to a free religion. This is somewhat true, but just like Grove City College (hopefully where i'll be going), they accept all religions but was originally based off of a Christian standpoint. When the 10 Commandments were removed, the college removed all acceptance of their federal aid.
Read their mission statement: (sry for a few typos)

http://www.gcc.eduSince its founding in 1876, Grove City College, committed to Christian principles,has striven to be equal in academic quality to the finest four year colleges. It seeks to provide liberal and professional education of the highest quality that is within the reach of families with modest means who desire a college that will strengthen their children's spiritual and moral character.
When the College was chartered, a broad, Christian-based cultural consensus prevailed in America. By charter, the doors of the College were open to qualified students "without regard to religious test or belief." The founders of Grove City College, consciously avoiding narrow sectarianism, held a vision of Christian society transcending denomination, creeds, and confessions. They were committed to the advancement of free enterprise, civil and religious liberty, representative government, arts and letters, and science and technology. Believing that the fruits of civilization would be destroyed if religious and ethical roots were allowed to wither, the founders intended that the claims of Christ as God and Savior and of inspired Scripture be presented to all. They hoped that through its program of intellectual, moral, and spiritual education, Grove City College would produce young leaders, whatever their creed or confession, capable of pushing civilization forward on every frontier.
Grove City College remains true to the vision of its founders. Rejecting relativism and secularism, it fosters intellectual, moral, spiritual, and social development consistent with a commitment to Christian truth, morals, and freedom. Rather than political, ideological, or philosophical agendas, objective truth continues as the goal of liberal learning. The core of the curriculum, particularly in the humanities, consists of books, thinkers, and ideas proven across the ages to be of value in the quest for knowledge. Intellectual inquiry remains open to the questions religion raises and affirms the answers Christianity offers. The ethical absolutes of the Ten Commandments and Christ's moral teachings guide the effort to develop intellect and character in the classroom, chapel, and cocurricular activities. And while many points of view are examined, the College unapologetically advocates preservation of America's religious, political, and economic heritage of individual freedom and responsibility.
Religion does not go hand-in-hand like icing on a cake, but more like a cake and some ice cream: one makes the other more complete.
