There are several plants that have been used for hundreds of years.If you consider this and the founding of the church and it's ethics and morals,i doubt seriously if anyone could come up with ''factual answers''. |

Well...considering since 1910 a lot of states had an anti-abortion law...I say long before that.
Considering I'm in law school I should know the exact date, but it's been around for a long time. |

Abortion has been performed for thousands of years, and in every society that has been studied. It was legal in the United States from the time the earliest settlers arrived. At the time the Constitution was adopted, abortions before "quickening" were openly advertised and commonly performed.
In the mid-to-late 1800s states began passing laws that made abortion illegal. The motivations for anti-abortion laws varied from state to state. One of the reasons included fears that the population would be dominated by the children of newly arriving immigrants, whose birth rates were higher than those of "native" Anglo-Saxon women. |

since it was even possible to have an abortion... wich means that it was before america even existed. sure, it wasn't done the same way or nearly as safe but ppl would kill babies at birth.. or poison it... or cut u open and kill it. gross huh? :[ |

It was going on long before Roe vs. Wade. I'm older than dirt, and can recall the abortion issue being discussed back in the mid-sixties. |

I'd say the 'debate' has been 'out in the open' since the 60's. Abortion went on long before Roe v Wade in '73, however. |
