Looks more like high teen pregnancy rates go with states with poor education, high poverty rates and religion. The states with a large population of illegal immigrants are on top too, though I am still trying to get a handle on Hawaii. Anybody got an idea on hawaii?[/quote]

That's where all the Kenyans go to have their kids when they sneak into the country, it's really easy to fake a birth certificate there.

I think there is a kind of pilosophy going on here. Remember when the president intimated that people should not have to have unwanted children? This is a kind of hatred of children. On the other hand other people believe children are a gift from God and that children are the future of this country. Ask yourself do you dread having children or do you have hope for the future of this country? Is the Democratic Party trying to spread the belief that children are bad and should be avoided? What is the real message about this?

Oh you love children when you have children you know you cannot properly raise and cherish? And hate them when you don't? RIIGHT:disgust:! GOT IT! A-HUH! BULL'S EYE! HOLE IN ONE! ON THE MARK! We do need more abused, unwanted children to grow up and fill our prisons.

Hmm children are a gift from God? Funny I don't remember my children being a gift.

I remember my wife and I deciding to have children. I remember my wife delivering our children. I also remember that we are responsible for raising our children well, especially since our children were our choice.

But I can see how people who consider children "gifts" might not treat them as responsibilities.
