I decided to make a thread on Abortion after watching a show on it.How it is so open to people these days and more people are beginning to do it.It doesn't really occur to people sometimes that they are killing a life,some people are just so desperate to be free they dont even think about it.I know some people who are 15 and had it done already.In that case,it is necessary,but in the end it is their fault in the first place.There are many people who dont agree with it and think it is wrong,and there are also those who dont have a problem with it and think it's for the good of it.There are times when it should be done,and it is better not to bring a child into the world with no parents,and there are times when an adult couple does it because they just dont want another child.I know the Catholic church is very against it and many protest against it,I just wanted to hear your opinion on whether it is right or wrong or just sometimes necessary.Is it wrong to kill someone who never experiened life or to bring them into the world with a family that could not support them or are not mature enough to.

Anyone that is pro-life and supports the death penalty needs to die. preferably right now.

What about those who are pro choice but against capital punishment?

So... are you saying that it hasn't even lived so it's not alive?

A life is a life.
For all you know that aborted unwanted baby could have grown up to become a murderer. But that's irrelevant.

So by murdering a murderer we continue the cycle of murder. That's not Pro-Life, I think is all LeChron was pointing out. He wasn't equating an innocent child with a death row inmate, just saying that if you value ALL "Life" (including ones that have yet to start and ones that are damaged) it is very hypocritical to support the "Death" penalty.

Maybe we just need new terms for opinions, Anti-Choice and Anti-Babies. xD

I didn't criticize you, I criticized your self-contradictory post. Big difference.

And I explained myself within my own post.

You're acting as if aborting a child and putting a murderer to death are one and the same... and that to support one and not support the other makes no sense.
And so therefore I pointed out how nonsensical such a logic is.

So now maybe in order to defend your pride, you ought to explain to me why there is no difference between killing an unborn child and killing a murderer/rapist.

well i think ending a life is ending a life, regardless at the point of its conception or its point in life as a whole. death is death, no matter what age or circumstance.

Wha? Huh? I'm saying it hasn't even gotten to live a year yet and therefore obviously hasn't even gotten a chance to do much in life. I don't know if that answers your question. Your question really didn't make any sense to be honest.

"for all you know that baby could also grow up to be a murderer....

WTF is that supposed to mean? You can't seriously be implying that the fact that a baby could grow up to be a bad person justifies killing it, can you? And if you're not, why even make such a stupid statement? It's going to be difficult for us to hold an intelligent debate if you're going to say things like that.

And you misunderstand what "pro-life" is about.
To be pro-life doesn't mean that "HEY! I SUPPORT LIFE NO MATTER WHAT!"
You want to know what I do when I see a spider? I squash the little f***er. With your faulty logic, I am no longer "pro-life" because I just killed an insect.
"Pro-life" is a term that isn't to be taken 100% literally. It is a title for people who are against aborting unborn children. If I believe that a mass murderer ought to be put to death rather than enjoy the luxuries of a prison (most inmates live a better life than people from third world countries!) and draining my tax dollars, this doesn't change the fact that I am "pro-life" on the subject of abortion.

Honestly, I don't mean to be so cruel about another person's opinions, but incredibly stupid posts like yours make it awfully hard to be respectful. It's like you made a wheel with a bunch of words on it, flicked a little spinner in the middle of it, wrote down whatever words the pointer landed on, and then put it together into a post.

Did you take this from a Miss America pageant or something?

That's beautiful and everything... but still doesn't improve the weight of your argument one bit. Sorry.
If you are still going to hold ending the life of an innocent child and ending the life of a murderer on the same grounds, than there is something seriously wrong with your head.

Whoa! Calm down there slugger...

I think you left out a vital part of my quote:
Quote:

It was merely a hypothetical statement showing an intriguing circumstance where the baby and a death row murderer could be one in the same. Now you are saying statements are stupid because you obviously misunderstood, as I misunderstood your statement on a fetus being alive. For this I apologize.

My post was merely meant to defend the irony of LeChron James' qualm with the wording of "Pro-Life" instead of "Anti-Abortion", so again I am sorry if I offended you in any way.

God Bless

Okay, I see there are huge abortion protesters in here.
I'm not pro-life or pro-choice or anything. I'm just with common sense. First, since abortion is done within like 2 weeks or even a month, then you're technically killing a bunch of cells and that's it. It's only a zygote and not a human being. So it is NOT murder.
Second, most of the people doing abortions have been raped/had sex inconsiderably/were abused/are minors. So, most of them can't even provide a good life to the child they're pregnant with. Speak about adding to poverty.

Not may people agree with my views on this, but I believe that it's the woman's body, so she has the right to do what she wants. I would also agree with the potential father to be able to object to the procedure if he's willing to take the child after birth, but honestly, if a woman doesn't want to go through with the pregnancy, don't make her. I also believe they should raise the costs of the procedure significantly, to sort of deter the woman from having it happen again.

Personally, I fully agree that it's a woman's right to choose whether or not to have an abortion, for numerous reasons... have it be from rape, medical reasons, etc... However, there are teens and other couples out there who are careless in their actions to practice 'safe' sex. There are instances that occur when people are careless, get pregnant, and for no other reason other than not wanting to assume the consequences or responsibility choose to have an abortion. While fortunately I have never come face-to-face with the experience, I find it hard to believe that there are young people out there who have had multiple abortions, while in a stable relationship, for no other reason than not wanting to assume responsibility. Every time you have sex you are accepting a certain risk, and if you aren't willing to be responsible for your actions and the consequences thereafter you shouldn't be doing it.

There are so many fit, responsible couples out there who cannot conceive a child who desperately want to. At the very least a couple, or biological mother, should consider seeing the pregnancy through in order to give the child up for adoption. So even if she is knowingly incapable to care for another life, others will be.

they have as more as they hold baby nine months inside their bodies risking death or serious problems during this period, then when giving birth and then still couple of weeks after...piss every man who think he knows it better (only Thomas Beatie can say something about it )

That's why parents should properly educate their children. Most teenagers who get pregnant are the ones whose families did not bother discussing it. It is something that parents must do at a young age with their children. There are options, but most parents will dismiss them. They think, if I give my child birth control, I'm giving her the right to have sex. That is wrong. Just because she's on the pill doesn't mean she'll have sex. Chances are she'll have sex regardless, with or without the pill.

Women do have the right, in my opinion, but it should not be after the child has developed, naturally. It should be done immediately.

What about guys who don't want the baby, but their girlfriends do? Shouldn't the guy have a choice as well? Well, he had the choice when he put his wang in that slip n' slide, but he should have already taken the appropriate precautions.

agreed.

My mom actually had a child at the age of 16 and since she doesn't believe in abortion, she gave it up for adoption to a rich couple. There was another time when my mom was forced to have an abortion due to medical reasons...she would have died if she didn't have it and chances are the baby would have died anyways.

It's not a bad place, Austin is actually a very liberal college town and the surrounding hill country is beautiful. Austin is an amazing live music town also.

As for abortion, I think it is the willful ending of a life. I do not support it unless the mother's life is in jeopardy.

To classify a living thing, remember MRS NERG: Movement Reproduction Sensitivity Nutrition Excretion Respiration Growth. By this reasoning your statement is correct. But people hold certain living things to a higher standard than other living things, usually with our own species at the top of the list. This makes sense for self-serving reasons, from our perspective, out of all the living things we encounter- who could be more important than a human? It is through this viewfinder than many people view a fetus as either an amalgamation of cells or a developing person with a soul.

I am neither for or against abortion based on the simple fact that I will never be pregnant.

In the woman's position in my Own country: the women, they always think that when they are pregnant, they dont dare or precisely, they dont want to do abortion because they think the fetus will become their children, they do not know Christianity atitude or Catholic's, just they do not want to be a mother killing her children. , no comment, .But maybe that for those women in 4 years go, now MAYBE still but less.

What I want to discuss here is: the responsibility of the women, do they want their CHILDren for their aftermath of SEX ? I do not speak on behalf of the voice of women, but I want to tell you that I have met some US women, very young. They all have children even in 17 and 18, and you know, they are not rich, they work to raise their kids, I did not ask why they had not do abortion because I have not come to this thread before . One of them told me that she a bit regrets, because raising their kids need money, but you know they have support from their parents or the grand parents of the kids, social instution etc.
