A professor at Brigham Young University (BYU) is facing criticism for seemingly promoting abortion to students during a women’s health class.\u00a0According to Campus Reform<\/a>, Stephanie Lutz used her “HLTH 450: Women\u2019s Health” class to explore the concept of “interspace” in pregnancy \u2014\u00a0questioning whether a woman is really pregnant<\/em> if she doesn’t know<\/em> she’s pregnant.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf she had unprotected intercourse before she takes a positive pregnancy test, there’s a pill she can take to just ensure \u2014 like in this interspace, like I don\u2019t want to take a pregnancy test and I kind of don’t want to know if I actually conceived. This pill will just take care of it if I did, and if I didn’t…\u201d she said, adding, “[I]t feels like a dichotomous situation, like if you are pregnant, or you aren\u2019t pregnant. Black and white, yes or no?”<\/p>\n

The controversial statements were also covered by the Cougar Chronicle<\/a>, a conservative newspaper covering BYU news.<\/p>\n
