Abortion Question?

Question

Pro lifers would you have been against Hitler or Sadam Hussain being aborted?

Answer 1

I know what you mean, but the other million babies that are aborted annually may beg to differ. What are the odds of a baby becoming like Hitler or Sadam Hussain? Besides, people don't know what their child is going to become?
What if an aborted child discovered the cure for cancer or aids?
What if an aborted child decided to kill millions of people?
They are both equally likely. But you can't justify abortion by "what if's?"

Answer 2

Yes. How do I know how someone is going to turn out? It really is a bad hypothetical question. In retrospect, the world would be a better place if they had been aborted. What if one of the aborted babies would have grown up to cure cancer or bring peace to the middle east or Africa? Are you sure that isn't possible. I rather make that mistake on the side of hope that these lives will be positive influences.

Answer 3

Sure. Kill them anytime. But how would you know ahead of
time? Could one predict the behavior of a grown person
from their genetics or the circumstances of the mother?
Better yet, just go ahead and sterilize the parents ...or the
grand parents...or the great grandparents...and so on.
Or just elimanate the circumstances that allow such stupidity
to thrive in some cultures that such extreme personalities succeed. Or put in a personality test before procreation is
allowed.

In the end, most folks want the "right" to procreate.

Is sexual abstinence a form of genetic abortion?

Answer 4

If their mothers had know what they would become and they had been given the choice we may have had a better world.
If there had been
3 WISE Women
They would have;
Asked directions,
Arrived on time,
Helped deliver the baby,
Cleaned the stable,
Made a casserole,
Brought practical gifts,
Told Harod where to stick it,
AND
There would now be
PEACE ON EARTH

Answer 5

As a democrat I used to be totally pro-choice, but now I think it's smarter to win elections and go Pro Life, and now that I'm completely limp, I won't have to worry about getting a women pregnant anyway, ever again. So I'm PRO LIFE all the way.

Answer 6

Same question, so same answer :-)


Yes, I would argue for the same standards to apply to any pregnancy. You have to punish people for what they have done, not for what you think they will do later.

Now, if you mean having time travel, and going back to remove someone who was known to have committed crimes, that's an entirely different question ... it would force a change in the way we think about crime & punishment. But until then, not knowing what someone will do, you cannot justify the "ultimate punishment" for them. And also, not knowing what a person will or can do, I don't agree with arguments that it's okay to abort a child simply because they will be disadvantaged.

Hope that answers your question.

Answer 7

That's ridiculous you effing retard, since environment plus genetics make up the human condition.
Hitler wouldn't have been Hitler were it not for WWI and Saddam would not have been Saddam if he were born in America.....You can never tell how someone is going to turn out because environmental factors are dynamic.

You are really dumb, by the way.

Answer 8

And how could one have known at that time that a fetus would someday grow up to be a murderous tyrant?

Abortion politics aside. Your question makes no sense.

As if one could argue that the persons who could have stopped them both had been aborted......geez!

Answer 9

yes. stupid question. got anything thoughtful? seriously, humans are born innocent, with only original sin which is washed away by baptism. Something happened to those men to turn them to evil. It could happen to anyone. So to make sure it doesn't I guess we should just abort all babies? Of course not.

Answer 10

i think of we could continuously supply a wager for toddler to be born. Human and animals alike.. nature have the thank you to regulate them (especially for animals). i've got not got a puppy atm, yet there are a gaggle of stray cats in my complicated that help to regulate the rat inhabitants (and lizard, they each and every each and every now and then consume them).
