Today, we're discussing the Washington Post's pro-birth-control article that leaves out some important details. The author of the article claims that conservatives like Brett Cooper are peddling misinformation about birth control – but is this true? We look at some of the research that proves hormonal birth control's damaging effects. Plus, a gay man in Chicago was recently arrested for plotting to abuse the newborn child he planned to adopt via surrogacy. We discuss how this demonstrates the danger of treating children as commodities. And should Christians reconsider if life begins at conception? Politico, unsurprisingly, seems to think so.
