Why the Religious Right Opposes Abortion

Because the Talibaptists make good coin selling babies, and so they want to have a good supply of pregnant women, particularly white pregnant women, without options, so that they can cover a few medical bills, and then extracting fees from desperate parents:
American websites currently offer[ ] mouth-watering
incentives to would-be buyers. "Delivery within four months", "Discounts of up to $19,000", they proclaim. If it were cars they were selling this would not seem
odd, but it's babies that are for sale – bright, smiling newborns to tempt the childless into parting with about £20,000.

There is no shame in treating babies like any other purchase in America, where the adoption industry is largely privatized… (“Why adoption is so easy in
America” Telegraph.co.uk 10/31/07)

………

The Brits have also rightly pointed to U.S. restrictions on birth control and abortion as a contributing to “marketable” infants in the U.S. The religious right’s imposed morality is perfectly partnered with those whose livelihoods depend upon the redistribution of children.

In May, 2007 Evangelical Christians organizations such as Focus on the Family and pastors from across the nation held a three-day summit in Colorado. members of to promote adoption via a media blitz.
While there are any number of people who do good work in adoption, there is a lot of money sloshing around, and it's driving the way that business is done, and the Mega-churches and their ilk are taking their tithes, which keeps the pastors in SUV's and business jets, I guess.
