Nathan, pretend for a minute you are a young woman. Say 16, 17, or 18. You had sex with your boyfriend. Let's say the condom broke and you got pregnant.
Your parents are looking forward to you going to a great college and doing better than they did, and you have a bright future ahead of you. You cannot disappoint them.
Your boyfriend is terrified, saying he can't handle this and breaks up with you. You are now alone.
You go to Planned Parenthood, maybe you can put the child up for adoption? No, your parents and everyone you know would see you pregnant, then not seeing a child anywhere. Shameful to your whole family.
Maybe this isn't the best logic in the world, but remember you are a scared, lonely, pregnant teenager with your future at stake.
You decide to abort. It seems the only way out.
You get shit from protesters as you go to Planned Parenthood. You come out with people yelling at you like you're a murderer, when in fact all you are is a desperate teen.
So how about, Nathan, you worry about the well-being of the human beings alive on this planet, this girl who will later attempt suicide, instead of a 12-week old fetus that is not aware of its own existance yet?

It is sad that there are people so irresponsible that abortion is even an issue. But there always will be, and it's something that will never be under control. The only circumstance in which partial fault does not fall onto the mother in such a case...is rape. Even so, there is no excuse for the destruction of life once it has begun. This has nothing to do with religion which is another fucked up matter all together. This is simply a mere opinion, as is 99% of everything else in life.

and what if the child has little time to live after being born? why subject a child to that?
what if the mother's predicted to die in childbirth?
for every legislation, there will be an underground opposition to it. if abortion is ruled illegal and can no longer be performed in the u.s., there will always be back-alley abortions, "accidents," and the such.

as taken from dictionary.com --
parasite
1. Biology. An organism that grows, feeds, and is sheltered on or in a different organism while contributing nothing to the survival of its host.

Actually a larger human populace is not needed. We don't need to placed on breeding programs.
Now don't get me wrong. I do not agree to abortion during the second, and especially the third trimester. I feel if you have an abortion by that moment in time, and it is not due to health issues in which the mother could die, then the person is clearly a fool for waiting that long to do the process.
Of course you may shoot back abortion at any time is wrong since it is death. Which in turn, I will counter with "When is new life considered a new life? When the sperm reaches the egg? When it is 2 cells? If 2 cells is considered life, than every time you have masturbated, you had killed off whole civilizations."
In conclusion, late trimester abortions bad, 1st trimester abortions when it it can't even be considered a human being, Okay!

my opinion: if i was raped and got pregnant, i would still have the baby, its still a human being from conception. (u can't tell me that picture of the aborted baby is not human)
if i was 15 and got pregnant, and the boy left me, and my parents freaked out, i would still have it, its still a human being.
think about it: what if these situations were your mother-you would not be here right now.

I'm just saying where can the line be drawn? You are trying to defend what could be life when every time you masturbate that could potentially produce a child, when one uses a condom that's preventing life.

Although you never did answer my question on what you consider when life begins. I am curious, if the fetus is aborted when it still has gills, is it still considered a human life?

you know why they say that, right? They "believe" that because back in the day the Catholic church was struggling a bit, and they wanted all their church members to have big families so that not only will the church grow, but so that they can get more money.
And for the most part, a lot of catholic churches are being leniant about birth control these days, because the times have changed.... their doctorine should, too... but then that's a touchy thing to get into so they just become more leniant with certain things...

This is the biggest point of contention for me when it comes to fanatical christian's arguing abortion on this point. what about an eye for an eye. Most of the time they not only believe in capital punishment but its made pretty clear in the the bible that its not only condoned, but it expected even. What ever happened to murder is wrong?
As far as your picture is concerned, it states at the bottom that it is taken from an abortion that is nearly into the 3rd trimester. Using shock value to convey your point only cheapens the argument. While I believe it is a womens choice, there are also limitations that should be followed.

^ way to puss out every time i curse. christ.
it's a fact that not every aborted baby WOULD have been against abortion. for further perspective on worthwhile human function, think along the lines of "while i do not like what you say, i will defend to the death your right to say it"
certainly we're all glad we weren't aborted, but in the long run, what does it matter whether certain people exist or don't exist, live or die? the idea that every life is sacred is primitive. sacrifices must be made for the greater good. surely you don't believe every song ever created should see the light of day.
also, i know that i have a brother who's 10 years older running around somewhere, but nothing more. thanks to adoption, i had a weird belief-challenging situation (one of many lol) to deal with when i found out in high school. i'm sure he has some valuable opinions on abortion...

My point is, regardless if the cause and effect are negative or positive(or neither), every decision comes with a consequence. Sex(whether a condom breaks or not), as wonderful as it is, has the consequence of possibly creating human life. So to bypass the consequence, and therefore end a human's life, for one's own personal benefit, is truly barbaric and "primitive". |
But there is a grey area there when you talk about ending a human's life because it depends on when you think life begins. It's primitive to you, but a lot of people don't see it as ending a human life, but rather preventing one from ever starting.

You basically said you don't understand how people can be so selfish as to get abortions, which is murder, just to make their lives easier. I think people do it because they don't view abortion as murder. So maybe you don't understand how they can see it as anything but murder. Well murder is ending a life right? It really depends on when you think life begins, and many people think that life doesn't begin until some point after conception, whether it be in the third trimester or after birth. Does that make sense?

Some women don't want to go through the hassle of being pregnant. Should they not be allowed to have an abortion just because ^you think it's wrong?

I never said you're logic doesn't make sense. You made some good points. And I know you're not the only pro-life advocate, but it just seems kind of wrong to make abortion illegal just because some people think it's wrong. People can generally agree on whether something is right or wrong, but with an issue like this where people are divided and it isn't clear whether it's right or wrong, it seems unfair to make it illegal.

I would get an abortion just to prevent my kid from living with me while he's still in college.

also, i know that i have a brother who's 10 years older running around somewhere, but nothing more. thanks to adoption, i had a weird belief-challenging situation (one of many lol) to deal with when i found out in high school. i'm sure he has some valuable opinions on abortion...
soooooooooooo your belief is that since he wasn't raised by his biological parents that he would have rather not even been given the chance to live???? shchmue, it is late, I see that(5 am on the dot as I type this) but c'mon man, that is just not logical thinking. And you can't use my history of dumb statements to disregard this as useless just because you are an elitist(yes, you are). |
There are many people who have been adopted who are pro-choice. Possibly would even have an abortion themselves, even though they were saved.

Oh but being raised by your biological parents has nothing to do with it. Especially if the child is adopted as soon as he/she is born, and never met the birth parents.

Rape is an awful, heinous(sp?) crime but why kill something when you can have it and put it for adoption? |
fucking stupid. Being remined every day for 9 months that you were RAPED? fuck it, i'm not even going to keep going. if you don't think a woman should get an abortion after being raped, you should die.

Yeah, it would suck to be reminded of it for nine months. Some women couldn't handle it.

I never said that adopted people are pro-life. In fact, I said the complete opposite. Please read clearly before making a post. And there are exception to everything, in every situation. So if you find me one, or even ten people that claim they would've rather been aborted than let to live, that wouldn't prove your claim. And if they reeeeally thought that no life is better than life, have they ever heard of suicide?

Maybe i don't really understand what you are saying. My point is that just because someone is adopted does not mean that are anti abortion. And I am not saying that the person who was adopted would have rather been aborted, duh. I am saying that if she were to have a widlocked child or become pregnant through rape, that she would not be against abortion solely based on the fact that she was adopted instead of aborted.
I don't really know how else to explain it.. I guess I could say that just because one was not aborted does not automatically make that same one against abortion.

And also there are a lot of psychological issues that play into adoption. I am all for adoption - but I think there needs strict guidelines (as there may or may not be) on some of the potential parents to make sure they are ready to deal with what the child needs, psychologically. And I also think the child should be told when he/she is young that he/she is adopted, and be made fully comfortable with the fact.
There are many couples out there who really want to create healthy loving families but cannot for one reason or another - why not turn a negative into a positive? Adoption creates that opportunity.
