An pastor previously on my friend's list posted an inflammatory article listing the legality of abortion equal to the Holocaust.
In the process of discussion, he said he was for hormonal BC but against Plan B.
I went on to give him the facts - as he was attempting to call RU486 Plan B. I listed all the facts of both - how they were different, etc.
I did unfriend him because of recent, with politics as they are, I just don't need any more reminding how conservatives tend to bend the truth and outright lie to support their beliefs (sometimes, some of them).
I didn't believe he was intentionally speaking untruths. I believed that he likely had been misinformed and merely repeating what he'd been told.
After I provided my facts though, I found out I was wrong about him. He deleted (or screened) all my fact including (with links) comments.
Apparently, he didn't want the truth about the drugs listed in his journal. Because you know, which ingredients were which and how they work in the female body is sacreligious yo.
I am very very disappointed. Belief and religion should be about truth. You should be able to defend your beliefs with truth.
If you have to hide the truth, you should question your beliefs.
