are you against abortion??

Question

i belive in abortion but i would like to hear the thoughts of people aginst it.

what if u were raped, thats a tyme wen abortion cums into play. And wen you have an abortion the child hasn't even started to develope. THINK ABOUT THAT!

If you were diagnosed with AIDS and became pregnent would you want uer child to grow up with such a horrible disease??

Adoption isn't always the anwser. Mant families who want children can't have them because of $$ problems. And children who arn't adopted as babies are very less likley to be adopted as teens.

I also think its wrong that a bunch of men from congress get to decide what a women does to her own body.

Answer 1

YES!!! I think you have no right to take the life of someone else, no matter what!!

Answer 2

This is such a tough subject. And the basis of your decision comes down to when you believe the pregnancy becomes an actual baby. I think the moment the sperm meets the egg, you have a person inside of you. Just because you can't physically see the body parts doesn't mean there isn't a child there. I have never had an abortion. I have had 3 miscarriages and I believe I have 3 kids that have died. I mourned over them just like a child that would have been born. My last miscarriage was at 11 weeks and I passed the baby at home. I saw fingers, toes. How can that not be a baby to someone? I can understand the cell stage - don't agree - but understand. Look up pictures on line of aborted babies, it breaks my heart to see them. Those are babies that could have had a full life. Had the mother or doctor not intervened life would have continued. I know and have spoke to mothers that have aborted and they deal with the emotions of it every day. Some of the moms I know now have kids they are raising and they talk about having to see their kids every day and know exactly what it was they did to their other babies. Abortionist don't tell you about all the emotions they deal with after the procedure. Not all moms have a hard time, but the majority do. There are other options. Maybe you didn't plan the pregnancy maybe a horrible event caused the pregnancy, but from the women I have met and talked to they wish they had gone through 9 months of emotions and a delivery over a lifetime of regretting their decision. The baby didn't choose rape. The baby is not the rapist, but God's child. Life threatening situations is a tough one. I can't say what I would do until I am in that position. I have two beautiful children who need a mommy. It would be hard to know that I am making a decision that may leave them alone. But in my faith I believe that God has a plan for us all. If He puts me down that road than He will give me the wisdom to make the right choices and He will take care of my children better than I ever can.

Answer 3

The fact is rape and insest only accounts for 2% of all abortions in U.S. The other one percent goes to if the mother is in danger. You have 3% of abortions that are justified. That leaves 97% babies a year being excuted without justication. 97% of people that have an abortion have it becouse its a nice inconvinent way, so they don't have to go though the headace of raising their child, which they willingly create.

Their are procedures the doctor can perform to reduce the chance of passing the AID's to the baby. If were going to start killing babies that might get aids, why not kill everyone that has the virus to put them out of their missery.

The last argument has been used so many times it ain't funny. If you have the right to chose what you want to do what you want with your body, then I should also have the right to consume pot, after all its my body and I should do what ever I want with it. It would only effect me and knowone else. I also have some nasty pics of what abortion looks like.
Most of these babies end up in a garbage can after then been ripped apart.

Answer 4

I do not believe in abortion in any circumstance. I believe that if you do not feel that you can raise the baby, you should give the baby up for adoption and give that baby a chance at a good life. I believe that having an abortion is murder.
I think abortion is murder even in the case of rape. I still believe that the baby should be given up for adoption instead. And, the children who are waiting to be adopted in the US who are 6 and 10 years old are children who came into the system as older children, not as infants. You can do a private adoption and an infant can be adopted out immediatly. Even in the case of AIDS...to answer your question....I do not believe in abortion. The baby will not necissarily get AIDS even if you have it. In fact, the risk of a woman with HIV/AIDS giving the disease to her baby is less than 2 percent with the appropriate medication. http://www.4woman.gov/HIV/pregnant.cfm
Congress has the right to decide the fate of a human being. In my opinion, congress isn't deciding on what to do with a woman's body, they are giving a child the right to live.
You call it abortion, God calls it murder.

Answer 5

I am 100% against abortion regardless of circumstance.
I am not passing judgment on others decisions but I could not consider abortion for myself even in the case of rape, incest or severe defect/disease.
It's not my place to play God. It's not up to me to decide who's life is worth living. It's not the child's fault how the child was conceived.
Aborted babies feel the pain of abortion. Google an abortion video and watch it. You will never ever think of abortion the same again. Look at pictures of aborted babies that have been thrown in dumpsters like yesterdays garbage. Those poor innocent creatures.
Nine months of pregnancy isn't that much of a sacrifice to make and lots of loving people would gladly raise an "unwanted" child.
So that is my opinion. Abortion is never excusable.

Answer 6

If there is a risk to the mother, or a medical reason to abort, I think it should be allowed. Accidents do happen, but there is always the morning-after pill, so there is never really a valid excuse. Prevention is better than cure, but if it really was a true accident, and the results weren't known until it was too late for a morning after pill, then there isn't much choice but to abort. No need to bring an unwanted child into the world.

Answer 7

You DO realize that you are NOT going to change anyone's mind right? You say you are looking for various points of view but you seem to be pushing an agenda.
Also, in my opinion, your arguments are not well thought out or convincing.
Due to C-sections and preventative medicine the chances of an AIDS infected mother passing the disease to her children is LESS than 1%.
Your argument that the child hasn't even started to develop at the time of abortion is bogus. If there was no development, there would be no pregnancy!!!
The other things you mentioned weren't arguments as much as statements and not worth addressing.
Regardless, I advise you give it up. No one is going to change their stance after reading/answering this question.

Answer 8

Here's the deal with abortion - nobody gets pregnant just to have an abortion. It's a very, very personal thing that is extremely difficult to decide on. When abortion was illegal, many, many women died in back alleys, getting a procedure done with coat hangers by untrained people. Also, I believe it is immoral to force a woman who is raped, or a victim of incest to have to have a child.

It is also important to remember that not all abortions are because someone is indifferent and just not interested in a child. Some happen because the child is threatening the life of the mother, or will not live once it is out of the womb. In the town I went to high school in, during the times before roe vs wade, a woman was 7 months pregnant when they found out her child had died. Because her body did not actually expel the dead baby, her doctor was not allowed to remove the fetus until at least 36 weeks. So, because of abortion laws, this poor woman had to carry around her dead child inside of her for over a month. It's a slippery slope to allowing situations like this to occur.

These are some reasons that even though I would not have one, except in a medical emergency, I do support a woman's right to choose.

Answer 9

I believe that if you get pregnant, and God allows you to carry that baby to full term, then it is meant to be...and aborting for selfish reasons interferes with God's plan(" I'm too young," "...my career", etc.) People need to learn to be more responsible when it comes to that...however there are exceptions--rape, incest, and siamese twins, etc. I DON"T believe in some old guy in Congress being allowed to tell a woman what she can and can't do with her body though. Each woman will take that up with her Maker when the time comes...God is gracious-if a woman is not really ready, she will abort spontaneously..(natural miscarriage)

Answer 10

I am against abortion because why would you want to kill a baby who never had a chance to live. Would you like someone to kill you when you didn't get a chance to live. and plus if your parents didn't want you and give abortion you wouldn't be here right now. and also there is a such thing called adoption so if you don't want them another family probably would.that's why i dint think abortion is a good idea. that's just my opinion.

Answer 11

Honestly I really think it is up to the mother. Yes that baby can make a couple happy, but there are certain times when the mother isn't going to want to keep her child, rape for instance is my number one reason why women should decide if they want to keep that child or not. It really should be up to the mother though... she is the one who has to go through with the nine months, she is the one could end up resenting the child and hurting him/her. She can damage that child more then an abortion can. Yes she is giving a child a life.... but sometimes is it worth it to have a women, who has no job, lives on the streets, is a prostitute or something worse... she raises the child and that child can get molested, beaten, raped, murdered... was it really worth to have your child go through all that when you could have easily had the decision to abort that child. No one should have a say whether or not you are allowed to abort. When I was 16 I was raped by my cousin, I found out I was pregnant, and there was no way I was going to keep this child. I was 16, still in school, had my life ahead of me, my father would have kicked me out either way.. saying it was my fault (b/c that is what he is like), I would have had no support, and yes I could have gave my child up for adoption... but who was going to help me and support me while I tried to go to school, got riduculed, had no where to stay and etc etc etc... so yes i believe everyone should have the choice to abort or not... sometimes there are cases when you need to. I sometimes wish those mothers who have 8 or more children would abort their children... there is no way they are going to be able to support them, they can probably beat them and molest them.... i'm sorry but I am for abortion and i can go on and on and on why it is a good reason to do this...
