Obviously, my opinion is that it's not necessary:
The top three most religious prosperous developed countries: 1. United States 2. Portugal 3. Ireland
The three least religious prosperous developed countries: 1. Japan 2. Sweden 3. Germany
18 Countries Total:
The more religious a society the higher the homicide rate. Highest homicide rate: 1. United States, 2. Portugal, 3. Switzerland Lowest homicide rate: 1. Spain, 2. Norway, 3. Japan
This correlation holds true through all countries.
The more religious a society the higher the abortion rate. Highest abortion rate: 1. United States, 2. Australia, 3. Canada Lowest abortion rate: 1. Denmark, 2. Sweden, 3. Great Britain
This correlation holds true through all countries.
Furthermore if you dig deeper, agnostics & atheists commit the least crimes, have the least abortions, have the least number of early pregnancies.. in fact they are all around less dysfunctional.
Despite the best effort of “pro-life” Americans, abortion rates are much higher in our Christian nation, than the lowest in relatively secular ones such as Japan, France, and Scandinavian countries. In general higher rates of belief in and worship of a creator correlate with higher rates of homicide, juvenile and early mortality, STD infection rates, teen pregnancy and abortions.
As for pro...You could take the cliche stance that it's necessary for morality, but I think I just pretty much debunked that... sweatdrop

Interesting statements that agree with my own research into the matters. But be careful how you pose the abortion issue; it would almost assume that you consider murder and unethical behavior to be the same as abortion.
Alternately, though, one could say that your statement is just making clear that people aren't having sex so carelessly in the first place in more secular places, which in itself isn't a bad thing at all.
