Are you pro-life or pro-choice? Also, does it affect who you vote for at election time?

Question

I won't say which side I am on, but it does not affect my vote. I am just wondering how much it affects other people's voting behavior.

Answer 1

i don't, personally, believe the issue belongs in government...
{where i personally stand, is not important}

it belongs between a woman and her doctor...

so it would sway my vote to hear a politician say...

it's not a political issue....it should remain a personal choice...a personal freedom

government is too controlling over individual rights...
for the people...by the people...

i like my government to be concerned with REAL issues, and represent our Country...to the World, in the best manner it can...

we should be allowed, to "govern" our own lives.....the more "freedoms" we allow the government to "control"
the less we will eventually have.


Sometimes it is said that man cannot be trusted with the government of himself. Can he, then, be trusted with the government of others?

Answer 2

That's the least of my concerns when it comes to voting. Within the past ten years, I just would rather vote for the lesser of the two evils, as it were.

I, personally, and pro-life, but that is because I have a child. I don't think that I could follow through with an abortion, no matter WHAT the circumstance.

I don't point the finger at other women who choose to do it, though. It is their choice. If she's a friend of mine, hell, I'll take her. I don't agree with it, but I don't stand so strong against it that I won't support a friend who feels that it's the best decision for her.

God may think that it's wrong, but turning your back on a woman because that's the choice that she made doesn't look any better in His eyes.

The politician's take on it? I don't care. It's not going to change anything, anyways.

Answer 3

with this particular topic it will definitely affect their voting preferences. would be illiogical to be pro choice and then vote for someone who is pro life. doesn't make sense. something like this people don't tend to waver on. I'm pro choice (it's not my choice, but the womans)

Answer 4

Pro-choice. Yes it does. I do not want Roe versus Wade overturned. It should remain a woman's choice. It is her body. In the case of the mother wanting the baby and the father doesn't,the father should have the right to choose whether or not to support the child or participate in the child's upbringing.When pro-choice ladies offer to have the fetus implanted in them vice abortion or seeking to force their choice upon someone else, i will be converted to the other camp. Peace.

Answer 5

I believe life begins the moment the sperm penetrates the egg.

It would not affect who I decide to vote for because an official does more than decide one issue. I would look at the best all around qualified candidate.

Answer 6

I'm pro choice and I vote for candidates who are also pro choice.

Answer 7

I am really neither. I can think of situations where abortion would be the best answer, but I find using abortion as a method of birth control to be offensive, too. Usually, someone who is vehemently "prolife" is also a loud, opinionated and narrow minded idiot, so I usually try to vote against such a person.

Answer 8

I choose life for the innocent, and death for murderers. And yes, I do vote my conscience. Anyone who doesn't is violating Jesus' command to give unto Caesar what is Caesar's. In the United States, it is our sacred duty to vote, to control our government.

Separation of Church and State is NOT in the Constitution. There is only an admonition to Congress not to start a Church of America.

Answer 9

Pro-choice... and it's something I take into consideration when I vote. It isn't the most important factor, but it weighs in.

Answer 10

I am Pro-Life and I vote for candidates that are also Pro-Life
