...to be constantly pregnant and taking care of children. That way, the women haven't anytime to work (so the men get all the jobs—and all workplaces go back to being men-only-clubhouses). Nor any time to be in politics (so politics go back to being men-only-clubhouse). In addition, if the women are always pregnant, nursing, or changing diapers and watching after kids, it forces them stay at home (while men can go out), and rely on men to feed, clothe and house them (i.e. forces them to be good, obedient sex slaves).

THAT is what these right-wing religious types want. Contraceptives and abortion free women from being enslaved to home, children and husbands. And people of such religious faith don't like that. Besides, the bible says that women have to bear children and suffer in penance for eating the forbidden fruit. So, just following the bible there....
