email to my soc prof about class discussion on abortion and abstinence

This is the email i just sent my sociology professor:

hello again. i just have a few observations/questions:

why are you for abortion when your mother was almost the victim? if the plan had succeeded, you would never have existed. so if the choice to abort means the life or death of an individual [such as yourself] why is it the end of all the world's poverty problems, which you seem to think it is.

also, i'm getting annoyed with you using the Bible incorrectly. just letting you know in the Mosaic law in the Old Testament of Scripture, it talks about divorce. back then, the Jewish men were leaving their wives for whatever reason they wanted to, and you're correct in saying that the women were left with nothing. if the man wasn't there, they'd have no income and no dignity. BUT God in His law to the Jewish people, made provision for these women who were being left with nothing. He allowed them to divorce their husbands thus rendering their honor in tact and giving them the right to remarry so they would have money to live. so stop twisting the truth, or at least don't use the Bible as a source if you really don't know what you're talking about.

also i think the "discussion" on abstinence was a little overboard. i was sitting there wondering if some of these people were arguing for birth control [which i'm not against in the context of marriage] because they want to live the life of promiscuity. also if you want less teen pregnancy, isn't abstinence the most effective way of birth control? if someone's going to teach abstinence, they shouldn't need to teach birth control as well. it defeats the purpose of abstinence! also, i've been abstinent for going on 4 years with my girlfriend, and i think you don't find me to be a "dumb christian". i actually do my research and i might just be the force to reckon with you.

i hope you don't find me disrespectful, i really just want you to speak what makes sense, and so far...it's not working out so well.

I know, I know, it's really harsh, but at this point, it needs to be. I'm sick and tired of him making fun of Jesus so I'm gonna call him down on it...hard. I'm hoping maybe he'll start listening to me soon, but i realize it's not up to me what he thinks. I'm hoping God gets a hold of him before it's too late. drop me a comment or a facebook message on what you think about abortion and abstinence [sex before marriage]. Also lemme know if I'm wrong in what I did.
Thanks.
Let me know if you want more background of the class discussion on abstinence.
