stand on abortion please?

Question

well i am a survivor of an abortion and you know something even though life treats me like crap, and people dissapoint me, i am still thankfull for surviving the attempted abortion... now there have been time in my life where i wished the abortion was a success so i would not have to endure the cruelty that i recieved... for the record i was born March 25 1981 at 2am.

for example :

1. My biologival parents had me accidently
2. My biological parents tried to have an abortion
3. from the time i was born until i was three, i was severely abused and neglected
4. my bioligival mom is a drug addict
5. my biological dad is a drunk...(currently serving time in prision for my abuse)
6. from the age of 31/2 - 5yrs i was in and out of foster homes...never have been truly grounded anywhere.

now the next part is why i am glas i survived

1. when i was 51/2 i was offically adopted
2. i finally had a family
3.knew what is was like to be truly loved.
4. growing up i had many problems (stemming from my biological abuse), and even with those problems my family stood by me
5. i currently have 11 brotheres and sisters,( my adoptive mom is involved in foster care.

there wew alot of other thing s that impacted my liofe growing up..
but nothing hits home like ABORTION....i can so identify with why it is wrong... and if i can changed one mind, prevent one child from death as a result of an abortion, then my life will be sooo much better... and even if i never save any babies from abortion i can go to my grave knowing that i treid to do something rather than sit and let it continue.

currently i am a missionary with Ywam(Youth With A Mission)
and the picture below is of me and two mongolian boys who look so much like my brothers back home

Answer 1

Please keep telling your story my friend! The Lord will still use you powerfully.

I worked at a Home for babies and I took to this little baby who had been born from a miscarriage (his mother tried to kill him three times and the last time resulted in his birth). The attempted abortions affected him emotionally and spiritually until I took him to my church for prayer. If I hadnt, he would have grown up with a spirit of rejection on his life.

I thank the Lord for your story and that you survived and that he has filled you with thanksgiving.

Be blessed forever and keep telling your story!

Answer 2

Good for you!!! It is so sad about your young childhood, as I know how abuse feels, only it was hidden in our family and I didn't escape it until I turned 18. You are very lucky to have had such a wonderful family adopt you. God was really looking out for you and had a reason for you to be here, and that is why you survived the abortion. There are many women who get abortions and some go on with life as though nothing ever happened, but then there are the ones who get an abortion and it haunts them the rest of their lives, to the point of extreme depression, and other illness. I know this to be a fact. I only wish we had someone like you in our town. If you save even one child from abortion you will also save one mother from a life of regret. Keep up the good work and may God Bless You!

Answer 3

professional selection! that's continually a womans selection! i'd not ever in my opinion want to have one and if I were given pregnant now i do not comprehend what i ought to do reason notwithstanding i'm 20 and an human being, my mum says shed kill me if I were given pregnant youthful like my sister. yet tbh i imagine the purely situation i ought to have an abortion in is that if i replaced into raped. the pro life human beings don't have any properly to guage those who've had abortions because they have under no circumstances been in that situation and there is not any way a lady or woman who replaced into raped should be compelled to have the newborn, it really is basically sick and immoral! also no human being has the right to emphasize a lady to have a infant which will endanger her personal life. i imagine professional life human beings ought to provide up getting curious about different peoples organization tbh. Thank god abortion is totally criminal the position i'm from or perhaps loose! Abortion being unlawful absolutely places womens lives in probability!

Answer 4

Bravo! And praise God for His mercy to you in your life! I agree with you wholeheartedly that abortion is 100% wrong and that everyone has the right to live--even when living means having to overcome adversity. Some of the most fantastic people I have ever met are those who have come through the greatest adversity. When you know God, He makes all things work together for good in your life and causes even your trials to bring you spiritual and emotional growth. No one has the right to decide whether or not an unborn child should live except God! So keep fighting for those precious little ones who cannot fight for themselves! And may God bless you!

Answer 5

I can see you have had a difficult life, but it also looks like you have risen above all that and made some good choices in the end.
I don't believe there is any question about abortion in my mind, murder of a baby is just not an option, no matter the circumstances, every child has the right to life, although that life like yours might have been a miserable one, in the long run its all for a cause we can not always understand..
Keep the Faith.. God Bless

Answer 6

i want to commend you on your strength and love after all you have went through ... much love to you
i have had my own experience here from the other end , but not personal though
when i was 7 my mother was in a terribly abusive relationship.. she was beaten and raped in front of my sister and i ..
she looked after this mans 2 children also , one was handicapped

after the rape she planned to escape but this man kept watch over her like a prisoner
she found out she was pregnant and knew she had to do something about this
so one night she ran away with all 4 children while the man lay drunk
she had to take the mans children to their grans and just run off anywhere with my sister and i
we had no clothes, money or personal belongings
she went to her sisters who was the only family she had , but her sister also had children and no room for us all
so my mother left us there until she went to a shelter and eventually found an appartment for us
during this time she arranged for an abortion , as this man was looking for her and she was scared he would find out about the baby
so she did it ... she nearly died doing it
and at 7 years old i was really the only person my mother had to help her through this
that was 30 years ago...
to this day she mourns that baby , she knows that her life got better in the end and that the baby MAY have been safe
but this is only in hindsight and may not have been so if she had went ahead with having the baby
i love my mother very much and know how difficult this decision was for her
so despite the fact that i could not have an abortion ....
i would not judge anyone who has to make this decision as i know how heartbreaking it can be
sometimes people have very little options and must do what is right all round ..... even if it hurts them deeply

Answer 7

My belief is that of animals, the only that we consider to be somehow less characteristic while in utero is the human. To me, this is strange. I feel that the fetus is no less human than you or I, only at an earlier stage of development. For that reason, I consider abortion to be the killing of a human life (rather than murder, which is a legal definition). As I believe that this life of ours is sacred and that the human potentiality is sacred, I am anti-abortion.

By the way, I'm a Satanist.

Had to throw that in, just so you knew.

Answer 8

You cannot embed html here.

I am glad your life has gotten better.

I don't think that I personally could have an abortion.

I also don't intend to take that right away from other women.

I think that if performed, abortions should occur before 12 weeks, as the fetus cannot feel pain up until that point and has no conciousness.

Only exception to that would be if the mother's life is in danger, or some such extreme circumstance.

Answer 9

I believe abortion is murder. It is the termination of a human life for convenience. One day, Roe Vs. Wade will be overturned, and it will be seen as an injustice towards the millions of unborn Americans. I do not take this position from a religious point of view (as I'm agnostic), but from a moral one.

Answer 10

There are only TWO reasons I think Abortion is fiting. One if a woman is raped and gets pregnant. She may not want to live with the product of rape, it might hurt her to see a baby that may grow up to inherit such genes or even look like her assailant. This is so totally understandable. Two if giving birth to the baby may kill or severly hurt the mother. In this case again a woman can choose to give up the unborn in order to save her own life and maybe even the life her child.
I do not believe in having abortiong because you think your to poor to take care of the child. Wrap it up and use a condom! I dont agree in having abortions because you refuse to use a condom. Your grown wrap it up or else keep your legs together. I do not agree in young adults haveing abortions because they were to young to handle parenthood. Keep your legs closed, you whore. If your grown enough to have sex you are grown enough to deal with the consequences. Pregnancy, Child birth and STD's.
Lymber1 It hurts my heart to hear what you endured duiring your youth. but atleast you were given a chance. And thats all some can ask for. WHo knows who's life you have touched by your being here on earth. WHo knows what happiness you may have brought someone in your life. Bless you, and hopefully when you have a family of your own you are able to do right what your biological parents did wrong.
