It's ad hominem, but it's still important. |
There is a strong correlation between one's stance on abortion and one's religion. Typically, white evangelical protestants are pro-life, Catholics are split 50/50 (I should note, however, that trends show Catholics are becoming increasingly pro-life and are increasingly supporting pro-life candidates), and white mainstream protestants are pro-choice. Both genders tend to poll around the same percentage as the other in regards to support of and opposition to abortion. However, pro-choice women are more likely to select a candidate because of his stance on abortion than pro-choice men.
I am pro-choice.
