Why Do Extremists Have Strong Views With Abortion?

Question

judgement is God's only. Why do you feel it is your duty to critisize and judge women who get abortions as well as their doctors? We all are sinners in the eyes of God. No one is a saint. You are no better than the woman. we all make mistakes, some worse than others. that doesnt make us bad people. the only pefect being was Jesus.

Answer 1

I think it is such a sensitive subject because babies are involved. Children are something worth fighting for and I think that is where poeple become passionate. I agree, we are all human and make mistakes. I am against abortion completely, but God tells us to hate the sin, not the sinner. Abortion is sad, and I would like to do away with it. With that said, I think it is wrong to do just as much harm in attacking the people invloved. I think this is a subject that is sensitive to not just Christians, but all people. I think it is crazy to bomb an abortion clinic becuase you think abortion is wrong.
I have known people in my personal life that have had abortions, and while I do not agree with their actions, I would never try to judge them. I believe that if I stand up for what I believe and try to get abortion taken out in a Godly way, God will reward that and do his work. I think people in their attempt to fight for Gods will, bless their hearts, end up going to far and sometimes forget why and who they are fighting for.
Once again, we are all human and fall short.

Answer 2

You kind of answered your own question by using the word "extremist."

Yes, we are all sinners, but a difference is that we (Christians is what I assume that you are talking about b/c that is the only religion that people believe don't condone murder, b/c we speak against it) acknowledge that we are, and attempt to correct it. There is no judgment that we can do, only to show what God says. If anyone tells you otherwise, they are not genuine.

I don't feel it is right to kill a doctor in retaliation for doing one. But I do wish that they would not do them. There are other alternatives to destroying a baby. I am sorry you have been subjected to people who have done that, but like you said, they are extremists.

Of course much of it stems from other issues, like having premarital sex and compounding it with using abortion as a form of birth control. Again, I know that is not always the case. It is 2 different sins coming together.

But in any case you should not be harassed b/c of it. We just wish that more careful judgment on the individuals part was done before hand. You should be told what is a sin in the eyes of God & you must make your decision on that, because once you know, you are to blame.

Answer 3

Arn't we suppose to use Jesus as a role model? I don't believe he is happy with abortion. By the way, where does that right come from? Humans? I thought we are sinners per many other answers I see? So where did the human get the right from to make it a right. Certainly not God! I don't think that's an extreme question either.

Answer 4

Like I've said before, He should not have given us free will, we are obviously too flamin stupid to handle it. When society thinks its perfectly okay to murder unborn babies, then you know this world is more evil and good. You said "we all make mistakes", but the thing is we don't all feel the need to murder a baby because "we" made a mistake. It's 2006, use some birth control. Are you one of those people who just can't be bothered taking a pill, just too darn hard for you, so you just keep having abortion after abortion, so in your mind that becomes your birth control? Please, use some common sense. Do you have any idea how many people wait years to adopt? Yet instead of going thru the inconvenience of pregnancy, you just kill the baby instead. Par for the course.

Answer 5

IN ISLAM

Praise be to Allaah.

The Council of Senior Scholars issued the following statement:

1 – It is not permissible to abort a pregnancy at any stage unless there is a legitimate reason, and within very precise limits.

2 – If the pregnancy is in the first stage, which is a period of forty days, and aborting it serves a legitimate purpose or will ward off harm, then it is permissible to abort it. But aborting it at this stage for fear of the difficulty of raising children or of being unable to bear the costs of maintaining and educating them, or for fear for their future or because the couple feel that they have enough children – this is not permissible.

3 – It is not permissible to abort a pregnancy when it is an ‘alaqah (clot) or mudghah (chewed lump of flesh) (which are the second and third periods of forty days each) until a trustworthy medical committee has decided that continuing the pregnancy poses a threat to the mother’s wellbeing, in that there is the fear that she will die if the pregnancy continues. It is permissible to abort it once all means of warding off that danger have been exhausted.

4 – After the third stage, and after four months have passed, it is not permissible to abort the pregnancy unless a group of trustworthy medical specialists decide that keeping the foetus in his mother’s womb will cause her death, and that should only be done after all means of keeping the foetus alive have been exhausted. A concession is made allowing abortion in this case so as to ward off the greater of two evils and to serve the greater of two interests.

Secondly:

With regard to the rulings following an abortion, they vary according to the time of the abortion, and fall into four categories, as follows:

1 – If the pregnancy is aborted within the first two stages (the nutfah (drop) stage which results from the mixing of the “two waters” which is the first forty days after the embryo attaches itself in the womb, and the ‘alaqah (clot) stage where it turns into solid blood during the second forty days), which add up to a total of eighty days, then in this case if it is aborted as a nutfah or ‘alaqah, there are no rulings to be followed, and there is no scholarly dispute on this point. The woman should continue to fast and pray as if she had not had an abortion, but she has to do wudoo’ for each prayer if she has any bleeding, as in the case of a woman suffering from istihaadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding).

2 – If the pregnancy is aborted in the third stage, the mudghah (chewed piece of flesh) stage, when the embryo looks like a piece of meat with the limbs and features beginning to appear, which lasts for forty days from the eighty-first to the one hundred and twentieth day, then there are two scenarios:

(i) This embryo does not have any human features and the midwives or other attendants did not testify that this was the beginning of a human being. In this case the ruling on abortion of this mudghah is the same as the ruling on abortion in the first two stages, and there are no rulings to be followed.

(ii) The embryo has complete human features or some human features such as a hand or foot, etc, or there are features but they are indistinct, or the midwives or other attendants testified that this was the beginning of a human being. In this case the rulings on nifaas are to be followed, and this signals the end of ‘iddah (waiting period following divorce or death of the husband, if applicable).

3 – If the pregnancy is aborted in the fourth stage, i.e., after the soul has been breathed into the foetus, which is after the beginning of the fifth month or after one hundred and twenty days of pregnancy have passed. Here there are two scenarios:

(i) If the foetus did not cry after birth, then the rulings mentioned with regard to the second stage of the mudghah are to be followed, but in addition the foetus should be washed, shrouded and the funeral prayer offered for him; he should be given a name and the ‘aqeeqah offered for him.

(ii) If the foetus cried after birth, then the rulings concerning a full-term baby apply, as mentioned above; in addition the child may take possession of wealth bequeathed or inherited; he may inherit or be inherited from, etc.

Answer 6

There are extremists, just as in any group, but they just put a high value on life, and want to protect those who can't protect themselves. Additionally, they most likely believe taking life is one of the gravest sins there is.

Answer 7

Some people need to get their religion straight. It's shameful to have people walking around in the name of god trying to judge people.

Answer 8

I don't concider myself an extremist because I'm against abortion. Want to rephrase your question?

Answer 9

Extremists have strong views - that is why they are called extremists; nor can they be logically argued with because the belief is all.

Answer 10

but i don't have to condone it.

btw...you'd feel a whole lot differently if you knew what an abortion was i am guesing.
