Strange medicine

One would think that both sides of the abortion debate could rally behind contraception. Young, unmarried women have particularly high rates of unintended pregnancy. In 2008 more than half of these unintended pregnancies ended in abortion. Reduce the rate of unintended pregnancies, reduce the rate of abortion. Expanding access to contraception would seem a reasonable way to advance this goal. But no one can agree on how to do so. [emphasis mine]

This is sad and ridiculous and just one of the many reason's I no longer count myself among the faithful.  Something is deeply wrong with religion if it makes it impossible to agree on simple things like this.
