QUOTE(kryogenix @ May 30 2005, 7:01 PM) i don't like the parasite argument. this so called "parasite" was made from the mother's cells. her decision allowed it to be created (unless she was raped, then that's a different story). it's not like it entered her body from the outside without her consent, like a tapeworm. not really. the placenta is created entirely from the father's gene's. an egg and a sperm that has female DNA in it ( by removing the DNA in there and putting in new DNA) will create NO plecenta (only an embryo, which dies) if it is rape, it is in every sense a parasite. therefore; medical treatment (the abortion) cannot be denied. to others:: yes, the right to an abortion is abused. it is different for a 15 year old girl to have her first and only abortion, and a 25 year old girl to have her 10th abortion. the total banning of abortions is unjustified. and, that whole taking a life thing won't work. do you know why? doctors are keenly aware that if one dies so one can live, it is better than if both should die. conjoined twins are often separated so that one can live, even if the other would then die. |

I am pro-life in many/most cases. You spread your legs without thinking, you suffer the consequences. Abortions should be decided on a case-by-case basis. I don't think it should be outlawed though.

What's sad is that it seems as though the pro-choicers have run out of every single option and have resorted to plan Z, the parasite argument. |

The only acceptable circumstance is if the mother is at risk during delivery, and perhaps during a case of rape or incest. Otherwise, it most certainly deals with an unwanted pregnancy, a.k.a complete stupidity on the part of the mother. In that situation, case closed. It's a baby girl! Enjoy motherhood! |

Although I disagree with the 'let them have a first chance' mentality -- I do agree that abortions are justified in rape cases and during health risks. |

We need abortions in some cases. This isn't a black-and-white issue. It does need to be case sensitive or else girls would be getting abortions like it was nothing.

It should be case sensitive. It's the girls fault if she's in middleschool/highschool/college and is sexually active and goes to parties, gets drunk and gets pregnant. She has to take responsibility. She can give the baby up for adoption. But if in case of a rape where the woman does not want to have the baby, an abortion should be used. Most likely, the woman would not want the child of a rapist. If the mother or baby or both are going to die, then why make them suffer? The mother no doubt would feel grief for herself and the baby and her family. If lets say a woman accidentally gets pregnant and cannot afford to keep the baby, then she can give it up for adoption as well.

You are removing a fetus during an abortion . Medically speaking, it is NOT a human being. I don't see the logic of people calling fetuses humans, when anatomically and medically they are not. And thenew laws declaring fetuses as humans in murder cases? Completely illogical in my eyes.
Although the fetus will develop into a baby, we cannot say that the fetus inside the mother is a human at that time and place. ------------------------------------------ Abortion should be decided on a case-by-case basis. This is exactly why: A woman who was raped by her father should be able to have an abortion. A 15 year-old girl who dropped out of school to help support her 5 brothers and sisters and her single parent on welfare should have access to an abortion. A sexually active 13 year-old girl with rich parents who got drunk and had sex with a 20 year-old college guy should NOT be able to have an abortion. Why? Because she can: A. Get her parents to hire someone to help take care of the baby. -or- B. Give up the baby for an adoption to give it a better life. |

personally it doesnt matter to me. If the mother or father wants to abort a baby; thenlet them do so. Its ther choice. if they werent up to the challange f having a baby, they should have been safe when they had there fun in the bed.

...the same arguments keep going on here. i'll just keep saying the same thing.
i'm not really so pushy for adoption. we already have way over enough kids needing to be adopted. once these babies get to a certain age, there's much less of a chance they'll ever be adopted. that would traumatize this child. i would much, much rather see this kid even start to live this miserably than have it go through its entire life with no family. and, when it comes down to it, it's not like a law will be made allowing SOME abortions. personally, i'd rather have all abortions allowed than none at all. i don't look at is as less lives..it's less miserable lives. i hate to see people that sad and broken down. foster homes and adoption agencies traumatize and scare kids for life. every single kid that i've known who was adopted or in a foster home is tormented about it inside. i can't stand to see someone like that. i would rather them have not been born to go through all this than to live their lives miserable. |

a mother who would abort her baby because she would die in delivery should be shot. A rape victim can put her baby up for adoption or give her baby's custody to someone she knows that can take care of the child. Yes, there is shame of being raped, but honesty of how the baby came about is not the issue, the issue is that abortion is murder. The world is black and white whether you realize it or not.

^ uhh, you contradicted yourself there, buddy. you should shoot mothers who would die from their baby? so then that's killing two people, and not just one? oook then. i think your logic is pretty skewed.

What if it's an honest, good teenage girl that was raped? Would she rather want to go stay at her school or stay at home ashamed because of the baby? She'd be traumatized because of the rape and the birth. |

just a thought...
if we're gonna be considering killing potential lives as murder, than what about a woman's menstrual cycle? there's unused eggs being made there. if i don't go out and have sex, that's killing potential lives! i should go to jail and there should be laws made against women having their period and going through puberty. then there won't be any potential lives to kill at all! |

Think about this:
These same politicians who say they are pro-life (President Bush, many Republicans) are supportive of the death penalty and the war in Iraq. But I'm not going to get into that. War in Iraq debate: http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...ic=9422&hl=iraq Death Penalty debate: http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...l=death+penalty Do you really think we should trust these people to tell us about abortion laws? |

abortion is murder. you're killing a [potential (meaning not out of the womb yet)] life. i could give a rats ass about what stage the baby is, it is STILL A PERSON.
Basicially this weighs down to your own morals Religion, ways you were brought up, and your views on life and other topics that follow under. It's always going to be half and half. Yea. It depends on the morals. |

whoa! who said that people were having rampent sex!! Yes some people do, but must girls get raped. i do believe that 3/5 girls get raped before they are 35 years old! that that is scarry. Somtimes killing a baby fetus is important, like if it is a danger to the mother or the mother is too young...and by the way..a fetus is not a grown person it is a fetus...nothing just a little fishy like thing...it wont know the difference
