If you go to the religious type of pro-life websites, they will say YES.  I think it is their way of playing on your fears.  Here is what I found:\n\nA medical estimate of the rates of infertility:\n NetDoctor is a British medical web site which has a team of doctors offering medical information to the general public. Dr. Hilary Jones stated: \n\n"...abortion will not affect her future fertility. There remains a false perception that a therapeutic abortion, as it is called, can be harmful to health, but this is in fact is not the case. In times gone by before therapeutic abortions were legal, operations were performed outside the law by backstreet abortionists using unsterilised equipment and dangerous techniques." \n\n"Complications were common after such procedures ranging from pelvic infection to infertility and even death on many occasions. However this is no longer the case. Remember too that the anti-abortionists sometimes used to deliberately frighten women by saying that they might never be able to have a baby again in order to discourage them from having an abortion. These people may have been genuine in their ethical convictions, but they were less than truthful or properly researched about the medical facts."\n\n"Now the operation is carried out under general anaesthesia in sterile hospital environments by sympathetic staff in controlled and regulated fashion. The procedure does not damage the cervix or the rest of the womb, and provided no post-operative infection takes place, as it very seldom does, there is no reason why your girlfriend's fertility should be affected." 4\n\n BabyCenter offers a similar Q&A service. Robert Jansen, a clinical professor of reproductive medicine at the University of Sydney in Australia, was asjed: "Does a past abortion (or more than one) affect my chances of getting pregnant?" He replied: \n\n"Probably not. However, in rare cases, multiple dilations and curettages (the cleaning out of the uterus, also known as a D&C) can cause some scarring at the top of the cervix or inside the uterus. A procedure called hysteroscopy (when a small camera is placed through your cervix into your uterine cavity) can be used to check for this problem and can usually repair the scar tissue at the same time." \n\n"But even if that's not the case for you, you should know that any procedure that dilates the cervix (a necessary step during most abortions) can weaken it. So if you've had more than one abortion and you get pregnant again later on, you may find that you have what's known as an incompetent cervix — a cervix that starts dilating prematurely. This can sometimes be treated with a stitch to keep the cervix closed, called a cerclage." 5\n\n A scientific review article in the International Journal of Fertility and Menopausal Studies concluded that legal induced abortions have almost no chance of infertility when done in the first or second trimester. 6  http://www.religioustolerance.org/abo_infe.htm\n\nYou can go to this site for more detailed info.

You make an excellent point. Those of us that believe know that one day we will see a better more perfect place without the hatred and violence. It's called having faith and hope.

Both you and them are saying the same thing. If you will eventualy succed at having a "normal life" and I am sure you will one day realize that elements of normalcy have great value, you will need to embrase the notion behind the word and be yourself while loving God and others. If you are gonna complain at least use the right lingo... We the real creazy about life adventurous people march to the beat of our own drumms.

Welcome to the real world.Religion is about select justification,not logic.The best thing to do is protect your own rights.

I agree you should life your life to the highest moral standards you can.  Do what's right to the best of your knowledge and ability.  judging and preaching others is not part of that however. Who told you all this?  Can you speak from experience?  And what does this question have to do with imgration??

That is an excellent question and a very good point. I totally agree with you. What makes anyone think they are good enough to judge others, and what right have they to set the standards for other people. As long as people are doing their very best within their means, people should live and let live within reason, providing they are not causing a danger to themselves or others.

Mild answers are non-confrontational. Sorry, I'm not much of a bible guy, though turn the other cheek comes to mind.

Sure!  I probably wouldn't feel nearly as cautious about it if more of these relationships were 2 men/1 woman, though, instead of 2 women/1 man.  There's something frighteningly archaic and patriarchal in the latter case, but I do believe that consenting adults should be able to lead the lifestyle they choose.  Morality is subjective, and "marriage" is only "sacred" if you're a christian.  For the rest of us, it's a legality.  There are still plenty of us who are NOT christian, and who don't care to revert to the 19th century and live under the oppression of that incredibly limited perspective.

Interesting question. A lot of people say that in order to avoid hell, you must accept (insert religion) as the truth. To them, I say, if God can't understand why I have my doubts about (insert religion), he's as stupid as...well, you. (You, meaning them, not you.)

Just make up a lot of doctrines that fit your needs. That's what they do. It doesn't even have to agree with the Bible.

If by some unrealistic chance it were to happen, it doesn't mean that life wouldn't continue.  I would imagine that lesbians and gays would find a way to procreate.  There would be a sort of barter system.  People would recognize the need for civilization to continue and would adapt.

The only opinion I have of this question is this-- This is a controversial question that begs for a subjective answer. You obviously are a deep thinker about perplexing arguments.

No offense, but on this site you will probably get some insulting or nonsensical answers. I know I have. You might get more ideas by looking in a specialised search.
