Do you see the abortion debate as a matter of differing opinions or between right and wrong?

Question

I see it as right and wrong. The Liberals/Pro-Abortionists are always wrong. The Conversative Pro-Lifers are right, 90% of the time. Those that are "Only for abortion in cases of rape and incest" aren't pro-life either. I see no grey area. It's either black or white, right or wrong.

Answer 1

WOW! I DON'T SEEM TO SEE ANYONE STANDING UP FOR THE CREATOR OF LIFE. THE ONE WHO IN THE BEGINNING PLANNED HIS DESIGNS FOR US. HERE WE ARE BEGIINING TO CELEBRATE THE BIRTH OF CHRIST. HE CAME AS A REDEEMER SO WE CAN HAVE LIFE EVERLASTING. WHO AM I TO DECIDE THAT WHEN A CHILD IS BORN OF RAPE OR UNWANTED CERCUMSTANCES, WHETHER I THINK HE OR SHE IS WORTHY OF LIFE,WHO AM I TO DECIDE THIS CHILD SHOULD NOT BE BROUGHT INTO THIS WORLD.GOD HAS A PLAN FOR EACH AND EVERYONE ONE OF US. IF YOU DONT WANT THE CHILD THEN GIVE IT LIFE AND LET IT GO. IT SAYS IN THE BIBLE IN JEREMAIS CHAPTER1 VERSE 5..BEFORE I FORMED YOU IN THE WOMB I KNEW YOU.BEFORE YOU WERE BORN I DEDICATED YOU. A PROPHET TO THE NATIONS I ANNOINTED YOU..ITS NOT FOR ME TO PLAY GOD AND DECIDE WHICH CHILD SHOULD ENTER THIS WORLD AND WHICH ONE SHOULD NOT. EVEN IF IT MEANS I HAVE TO MAKE A SACRAFICE I MUST LEAVE IT TO THE CREATOR AND DEAL WITH MY OWN PROBLEMS.

Answer 2

I see it as the rainbow. There are so many ways to look at this issue.
What if the mother would die in giving birth? What if she was 13 and not physically capable of giving birth without serious repercussions? What if she was 60 and just not strong enough? What if the unborn baby would die? Would you want to give birth to something that would just die as soon as it hit the surface?

OR
what if the mother was raped and she didn't want to deal with the emotional trauma involved with rape AND having to give birth to the child? What if it was incest?

or.
It could be a promiscuous 25 year going in for her fifth abortion.

I'm not saying there is a right or wrong here. There are too many scenarios to play out to make that decision.
But its not fair for you to stereotype liberals or conservatives like that. I'm liberal, yet personally, I don't believe in abortion. Its not something I would do.

If you are personally against abortion; okay. Go with that. But don't set out in the morning each day with the idea that you can convince people to change their opinions with such a shaky argument.

Answer 3

There is a reason its called pro-choice and not pro-abortion. Everyone should have the choice to decide whether they are ready to take care of an accidental child. And should be able to consider if it is fair to the child to bring them into a world where they are unwanted and lacking in proper care. Nothing in life is black and white, hon. It only seems that way until an issue effects you personally.

Also consider the fact that being conservative means wanting to lessen the governments restriction on people. What kind of conservative government should want the power to tell people what they can and cant do with their own bodies?

Answer 4

I cant say I think abortion is a positive thing but it remains an option. Woman should have the choice because its their body and having a child should not be taken lightly. There are already too many starving, homeless, abandonned children. Babies should be desired, not a mistake that you feel you must rectify by persuing a pregnancy that was unplanned or unwanted. I can honestly say I've been there and have no regret or shame. Because I would rather regret having an abortion than regret having a baby. Today I have a beautiful 7 mth old daughter, she was planned and we wanted her very much. However women must keep in mind that although abortion remains an option it is NOT a contraceptive methode and should be taken seriously.

Answer 5

a million) Is abortion a spiritual/ ethical situation only? that's a ethical situation/very own selection- i comprehend an atheist who's against it. in my view, i'm professional selection. 2) Do you help abortions that placed the mother in threat of dying? I help abortion in all situations that the female has made the non-public selection (except that's basically too previous due term). 3) could you help an abortion that could bring about a newborn born with a ailment that is deadly? as quickly as back, if the female made the alternative for an abortion, then it relatively is her acceptable, no rely the justifications at the back of it. 4) could a ban on abortions avert abortions? a sprint- yet extra people will pass to back alley abortionists, this could be quite volatile, and could possibly to hotel interior the dying of the mother and newborn. 5) could desire to making abortion unlawful supply the state the potential to mandate abortions in the event that they so chosen? that's the female's physique, no longer the governments. 6) could desire to the government take transport of authority to make sure whether or no longer a girl will carry her being pregnant to term? How dare they arrive to a determination for her?! in the event that they like to fund her to maintain the youngster, and then undertake it in a while then by utilising all potential. yet they do no longer. people pass on and on approximately how abortion is incorrect, yet how many undesirable little ones have they afflicted to undertake? If no person had an abortion, we'd stay in an extremely overpopulated international, all international places could could desire to have a "one newborn in keeping with family individuals" coverage, and that they quantity of little ones residing on the streets could be extraordinary.

Answer 6

I see it as a matter of differing opinions, and as a matter of right and wrong. If you think about it, most legal killing can be considered either way. War, the death penalty, the situations that justify killing in self defense, etc., etc.

It's killing a human being, right enough (and I don't give a misfired armpit-fart whether it's adhered to the uterine wall, has toenails, brain activity or has fulfilled any of the other idiotic, grasping, completely UNSCIENTIFIC and completely arbitrary statuses that qualify it as a human life. It's alive. It's not dead. And it's not a dog, not a fish, not a rodent, etc.,) and barring interference it is, at conception, what will grow into the human being that walks the earth a mere two years later.

But deciding when and why we kill, with the blessing of our so-called civilized society, and the grasping nonsense we use to justify it always has less to do with right and wrong than expediency. Politicians push for capital punishment to get votes. A government kills people by the hundreds of thousands while making war on a regime it was happy to supply with weapons a few scant years before (while the pro and anti abortion crowd alike go GEE WHIZZING at the high-tech smart bomb extermination of human life that they watch between Bowflex and cat food commercials).

People kill people. Always have, always will. And when it comes to govenmental policy, when and why and how they are legally allowed to do it has a hell of a lot more to do with what people want - or think they want (and make clear to those in charge when they step into the ballot box) than it does with right and wrong. And yes, very little killing is done out of true neccessity (self defense excluded) . Most is elective, as abortion nearly always is.

As for me, I'd need a better reason than being unable or unwilling to take responsibility for my actions - no matter how ill-considered - to take a human life, especially the life of my own child. But I wouldn't make it illegal for those that think they can live with doing so to do so, and my reasons are as complicated as this answer is.

They should just give it a lot of thought, and be prepared to live with the consequences. And there are always consequences. Whether you kill in one of the "legal, justifiable" ways, or not. Ask anybody that's done it. On the battlefield or in their living room or during a liquor store robbery or exercising their "legal" right to have junior shop-vac'ed out of them on a table at Planned Parenthood.

It all catches up to us eventually. You don't have to wait for the next life (if there is one), to find that out.

One thing is for sure. In the U.S., anyway, there is no constitutional basis for abortion - reaching right-to-privacy arguments not withstanding - anymore than there is for a legal guarantee for the right of a woman to demand that a doctor amputate her left hand, when there is nothing wrong with it - because she just doesn't want to have to deal with "it" getting in the way. Let alone dun the taxpayers for the bill.

Answer 7

It depends on if you believe that life begins at conception, or if you believe it begins sometime later. Even doctors cannot agree on this. Until doctors can agree, I believe it is a personal decision someone has to make.

I'm not sure where you got the statistic that 90% of the time Conservative Pro-Lifers are correct. I think that your opinion is just that, an opinion. In the future, you might want to refrain from using statistics for which there are no facts to back it up.

Answer 8

I think abortion is only a good idea if the woman was raped. But I really get sick of hearing other women's whiny excuses. Example: 'Well, I got drunk and one thing lead to another...'. It's just so stupid. If you can't control what you do when you're drunk, um... try not getting drunk, maybe?

But, I agree. There really is no gray in abortion debate. I am not going to sit here and deny that when you get an abortion, you deny someone their life. It really is murder in my opinion, but having an unwanted child can totally ruin a persons life.

But if there are women like me out there who have decided that they never want to birth a child, that would ruin a life even more. Hell, if I got raped, wound up pregnant and got denied an abortion, I would put a bullet in my head anyway.

Answer 9

Well your wrong. I see it as a matter of choice. Not right or wrong , not pro life or pro abortion. In my opinion, no one has the right to tell me what to do with my own body. It doesn't mean that all pro abortionists agree with abortion, it just means they agree with having the right to choose. But I do not agree with someone using abortion as a birth control tool, although I do agree with having that choice to do so.

Answer 10

I have always been of the opinion that a woman has the right to do with her body what she wishes. So if she wants an abortion, she should be able to get one without being hassled or harassed. Personally, I would not have an abortion, but, I would not try to prevent another woman getting one. She is the one that will have to live with the decision, right or wrong.

Answer 11

Yes, it is a matter of right and wrong. I'm pro-life by the way. I definetly agree with you saying there is no "grey area"
