Abortion Question (Pro-Life)?

Question

I recently asked a a question (Can someone explain to me how this is not a human being) I included a link that showed babies that were aborted. I then explained how most of these babies end up in a trash can after they been aborted. The pictures were nasty, but it was only to prove my point that it was human. Within 10 min someone reported to me to yahoo and then my question was deleted. How don't understand why. They said that it had explisit content. I was only telling the truth, its not like its porn links or anything. I wanted to show what the true reality was of what abortion looks like, and that it is a human baby. Do you think I did anything wrong other then exposing the truth.

Answer 1

i personally don't but since there are younger people (young teens) that get on here that is probably why i can see where early teens would be rather disturbed by those things. if you have an account anywhere with a blog where mainly adults are on you have more freedoms. a lot of people don't even take into consideration that the baby has a heartbeat 25 days after conception which is way before you even find out you're pregnant. i agree i don't see how anyone can say an unborn baby isn't a life. it makes me sick a lot of women tend to think it's the easy way out and almost use it as a form of birth control. it's sad.

Answer 2

You showed a link to pictures of dead babies! How do you think it got deleted? There are a LOT of minors on this site. It doesn't matter if your pro life or not that was wrong. If people want to access that themselves they can, you shouldn't put it in a link. Sure you exposed the truth but do you think you could have been a little less graphic? What if some one was against the war and they showed pictures of dead soldiers? How would that make you feel? Its the truth, they're dead, but you don't need to show it. Porn is the same way. It's the truth, people do stuff like that. An R rated movie can get its rating from sex or violence, and what you showed was violence so yes, the question was explicid and I think Yahoo! did a good job of taking it off this site.

Answer 3

the pictures were delected because of the children on the site.

here is why fetus aren't human, even if they look like it...

when a someone is pregnant they go through 3 phases- zygote, embryo, and fetus.
Many embryos don't make it to be fetuses due to miscarriages.
A fetus have little to no shape in the beginning and looks like an animal in the early stages. Later it takes the shape of a human. The first part of the brain it develops is a brainstem. Before the second trimester it will develop a limbic system- which controls organs.
during these stages it has no thought, no memories, and could be compared to a person in a vegitative state. Then it develops association areas- now we have human who can think, feel, see, retain memories, and possibly even dream (many people don't remember their dreams or if they dreamed inutero)

it may look like a human, may look like it is capable of thought and of feeling, and it may develop into a person- but it's not one at the time when it can be aborted

This is 2006, we all know the horrors of what abortion is, believe me, most of us don't need to see it in the cold hard fashion of pictures. If I had seen your first posting, I wouldn't have looked at the pictures. I don't feel it necessary to show things like that. Have you considered that you showing such things is as bad as the act itself? Does the end justify the means?? We know, we've all seen the pictures, we know what it's all about. But it's your opinion, and you can't force it on others. I personally wouldn't nor have I had an abortion, but, and this is the biggie here, not all people are Christian, and the body of the woman does NOT belong to the Christian religion or churches. The church does NOT have the right, nor you yourself, to force any women into continuing with an unwanted pregnancy. Pray for the woman, and the fetus (baby), sure, but don't force your convictions onto her. However, I would NOT have reported your message, you have the right to express your opinions, and feelings, along with all of us. Thank You for allowing me to express mine.

Answer 5

Being true does not justify posting it in a place where teenagers have access to it. Some parents do not want their children exposed to such graphic pictures. Since this site is availible to children 13 and over, the content needs to be suitable to them. And showing gross pictures of aborted fetuses do not make them babies. You did not expose the truth, you merely posted your opinion.

Answer 6

And you think that pics of abortions are any less offensive than explicit pics of people having sex? Get real. That's as out of whack as being able to show movies of people being slaughtered and blown up, but a shot of a naked body is out of the question.

This is, of course, completely beside the point of any given person's position on abortion.

Answer 7

i think you went a little overboard with the pictures. after all there are some 11 year old kids (and probably younger) on here sometimes. next time it think it would be reasonable if you at least warned everyone that the pictures were graphic.

Answer 8

yes. If someone is too stupid to realize that what is aborted is human (what else would it be?) than looking at the bloody pulp of an abortion wouldn't make them believe it any more.

The images were definately explicit content, even if you had warned people what they were of.

Answer 9

I know a girl who grew up in foster homes and was adopted, and when it became necessary for her to make a CHOICE she chose to have an abortion. That convinced me.

Answer 10

When someone reports you and your question is deleted, Yahoo doesn't read it. It just goes on auto delete. So it was just one individual that was offended.
