No I don't. You still didn't answer the question - what is the cutoff point - or is there one? Is it acceptable to abort in the 9th month? I think you're afraid to answer the question.
Well I guess they can extend the abortion law to euthanasia for the unwanted. Unwanted inside or outside the womb - what's the substantive difference?
Okay, so if as a society we are going to prevent a woman from an abortion, is that same society going to guarantee that the unwanted child that results from a forced birth is going to be given the same level of care that any other child of parents who want children get? Does the government guarantee that each unwanted child will get loving parents, proper nutrition, education, housing, clothing, etc? A woman can make a mistake and get pregnant, and for that a child has to be born and suffer the consequences of being born into a situation where they are possibly unloved, unsupported, etc? It is one thing to condemn the woman for getting pregnant, or the man who knocked her up for this mistake etc, but why condemn a human being to an unwanted life? When I see the anti abortion crowd ponying up all the necessary love, money, and support to ensure every child born is given the best opportunity for a great human life, then I could begin to think about supporting their cause to control a woman's body from the moment of conception to possible birth of a child.
>Pro-lifers appeal to reason ... Pro-lifers have no more a lock on 'reason' than the pro-choicers (see following) >... (pointing to when a fertilized egg becomes a >human, and applying ânormalâ laws to that human), There is no "reason" given in the above statement ... only assertion. The assertion is that the egg becomes a "human" at the moment of fertilization -- that is an assertion that is without any fact to prove it. I absolutely concede that there is no "fact" to back up the opposing assertion either, but let's not call something a fact until it can be established as such. >while Pro-choicerâs appeal to emotion I have no argument that there are emotional appeals created by BOTH SIDES -- in fact, there is no bigger emotional appeal than the one you created in the last paragraph of your post. It's actually entertaining that in the very post you accuse the opposing side of using emotion, you go there in spades. JB
If pro lifers aren't willing to pay for the child's upbringing, then kill it, eh? You are ALL heart. Why don't we ever see you demanding that liberals be the ones to pay for universal health care? How about liberals giving up their jobs for affirmative action? That's the thing about you libs. If you're for a policy, tax someone else to pay for it. If someone else is for a policy, they can pay for it themselves. And of course it all seems so logical to you.
If pro lifers are so pro life, then why not take responsibility for it? Life doesn't end at birth, it begins, and that is where you want to ignore the condition of life you force to be brought to life? No, you want to abdicate the responsibility for forcing a woman to bear a child. Talk about abandonment of life. Allow a child to be born in to terrible conditions that assure a life of suffering is an indication of ALL heart? LMAO...
humorous. There is a multi year waiting list for babies to adopt. This is a red herring by anti-lifers. Try reading the newspapers about "couple willing to adopt your baby." And secondly, it is assumed that people who decide not to have an abortion automatically mistreat or put them out. Show evidence for this, not your unfounded opinions.
And that wait list will take any baby that is forced to be born via prohibiting a woman from an abortion? Not bloody likely. Imagine if the requirements to be on the waiting list was to take whatever was "handed out."
The kids walk around angry. They spend their life looking for love and when love is staring them in the face, they reject it. They feel they are not worthy, they don't deserve love. After all, their parents threw them away, to the curb for the trash man. They hook up with their peers, others like them who are angry and unloved they breed and raise children of their own, children who they are unable to love because they don't know how.
