QUOTE(uninspiredfae @ May 16 2004, 9:29 PM) I guess to counter that, people who have helped society could've been aborted if their mothers decided to. So to present you with the other side of the argument: if unaborted babies can kill, they can also save people or made some wonderful discoveries. Examples: Albert Einstein, Ghandi, George Washington... scientists who are trying find the cure/treatment for aids, doctors... Those are unaborted babies who made a difference. haha oh c'mon it's just a little humor in the debate forum |

if they wanted to abort their child, at least donate the egg or whatever (before its an embryo) to science. at least you can help for things in the future.

QUOTE(Kathleen @ May 12 2004, 9:47 AM) Sorry, Jess, but I'd hate to inform you that one percent of all abortions are from rape. ![]() i say abortion is murder; either way, it's still your baby. give it a good home if you don't want to take care of it or something... or maybe it's the giving birth part they don't really like?.. still murder. ![]() |

Immoral? Perhaps. Murder? Certainly not. The baby does not have the right to the mother's body, and is only there by her permission. |

others beg to differ from my opinion, which is fine.
immoral, sure. murder... wouldn't it feel like killing a part of yourself? a part of you. i wouldn't know, and hopefully, i hope i'll never gain the knowledge of feeling that. |

... which proves that having an abortion is a bad idea. Not that it should be banned.

read the topic this girl dies becasue in relationships it might hel you think before having an abortion.
: Dear Mommy, I am in Heaven now, sitting on Jesus` lap. He loves me and cries with me; for my heart has been broken. I so wanted to be your little girl. I don`t quite understand what has happened. I was so excited when I began realizing my existance. I was in a dark, yet comfortable place. I saw I had fingers and toes. I was pretty far along in my developing, yet not near ready to leave my surroundings. I spent most of my time thinking or sleeping. Even from my earliest days, I felt a special bonding between you and me. Sometimes I heard you crying and I cried with you. Sometimes you would yell or scream, then cry. I heard Daddy yelling back. I was sad, and hoped you would be better soon. I wondered why you cried so much. One day you cried almost all of the day. I hurt for you. I couldn`t imagine why you were so unhappy. That same day, themost horrible thing happened. A very mean monster came intothat warm, comfortable place I was in. I was so scared, I began screaming, but you never once tried to help me. Maybe you never heard me. The monster got closer and closer as I was screaming and screaming, "Mommy, Mommy, help me please; Mommy, help me." Complete terror is all I felt. I screamed and screamed until I thought I couldn`t anymore. Then the monster started ripping my arms off. It hurt so bad; the pain I can never explain. It didn`t stop. Oh, how I begged it to stop. I screamed in horror as it ripped my leg off. Though I was in such complete pain, I was dying. I knew I would never see your face or hear you say how much you love me. I wanted to make all your tears go away. I had so many plans to make you happy. Now I couldn`t; all my dreams were shattered. Though I was in utter pain and horror, I felt the pain of my heart breaking, above all. I wanted more than anything to be your daughter. No use now, for I was dying a painful death. I could only imagine the terrible things that they had done to you. I wanted to tell you that I love you before I was gone, but I didn`t know the words you could understand. And soon, I no longer had the breath to say them; I was dead.I felt myself rising. I was being carried by a huge angel into a big beautiful place. I was still crying, but the physical pain was gone. The angel took me to Jesus and set me on His lap. He said He loved me, and He was my Father. Then I was happy. I asked Him what the thing was that killed me. He answered, "Abortion. I am sorry, my child; for I know how it feels." I don`t know what abortion is; I guess that`s the name of the monster. I`m writing to say that I love you and to tell you how much I wanted to be your little girl. I tried very hard to live. I wanted to live. I had the will, but I couldn`t; the monster was too powerful. It sucked my arms and legsoff and finally got all ofme. It was impossible to live. I just wanted you to know I tried to stay with you. I didn`t want to die. Also, Mommy, please watch out for that abortion monster. Mommy, I loveyou and I would hate for you to go through the kind of pain I did. Please be careful. P.S I still love you mommy |

i'm against it, especially after taht story i read... anyways because its the parents fault they should not be giving life to a baby and then killing it!!! cause they should have used protection or birth control or just NOT do it! it they are NOT READY to face the world with a baby to take care off!!! pains to see baby's that are having a bad childhood. just like these teens that are still in high shcool with babies.. when they can't even support themself.

As much as pro-life that poem is, and how I think it's great...it's not realistic. The fetus doesn't actually feel anything just yet. At least, I don't think it does...

QUOTE(aZn_KyOoTi3_x3 @ Jun 7 2004, 5:44 PM) I think abortion is wrong. In some situations it is ok. Like if you got raped and you don't know who it is. Would you want your child living in misery not knowing who their father is? But besides that its wrong. You shouldn't take away a life that you created. It's not the baby's fault that she's in your stomach...it's yours. Btw- when i say you im talkin about like the mother of the child or just n e grl here. it's not the baby's fault, the baby's mind hasn't formed yet. the abortion is usually taken during the first three weeks of pregnancy, where costs are the lowest, where mitosis hasn't occured yet and the fetus is still in development. |

Okay, time for Biology 101 with Comrade Red: Mitosis (n.): Asexual cell division, by which two daughter cells with identical DNA are produced from a single parent cell. Mitosis is divided into several distinct phases, such as Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. During embryonic development, this occurs within the first 20 minutes... Waccon, if you can abort a baby before Mitosis occurs, I stand in awe... |

There are tons of families that don't have a father because they walked out on them...they survive...they cope with it. In fact, they're probably better off because they know how to live without a parent. Some of us rely solely on both parental units. Also, it's not in the stomach...hehe. It's in the uterus. ![]() |

i don't personally think abortions are morally right, but i don't think they should be illegal. i think the girl should keep her legs closed if she isn't ready to have a baby. and the excuse "well we used a condom, or i was on birth control." doesn't work because the only way those two things work is if you hold them in between your knees.
