How does abortion cause the fetus to suffer when it goes straight to Heaven?

Question

It doesn't even have a nervous system.

Answer 1

notions of the start of life and the existence of heaven are not absolutely proven

Answer 2

Well, it doesn't always kill the baby immediately for one. For another, yes it does have a nervous system, not even the pro-choice groups argue differently. Not only that, but brainwaves have been detected at the age of 5 weeks. If you've ever seen the silent scream, you've seen first hand that the fetus does indeed suffer. For another, it's not just an issue of the fetus, but also an issue of what it does to the mother.

First, there is the issue of the safety. Planned Parenthood has been convicted on numerous accounts of helping cover up statutory rape to protect the abusers of young girls, by encouraging them to go as far as to go to unlicensed clinics. At these clinics there is a reported 19% chance that they will be sexually assaulted while they are at the clinic.

The chance of dying during an abortion is down, it used to be 30%, now it's only 5%, but the danger to the life of the mother remains.

Then there's the psychological effects that occur. Women that have an abortion are found to be 37% more likely to commit suicide, and 73% of them end up seeking counseling for PTS disorder. (Post-traumatic stress)

Yes, the fetus is not eternally condemned, but there is much more than just the fetus to worry about.

Answer 3

An abortion is the removal or expulsion of an embryo or fetus from the uterus, resulting in or caused by its death. This can occur spontaneously as a miscarriage, or be artificially induced by chemical, surgical or other means. Commonly, "abortion" refers to an induced procedure at any point during pregnancy; medically, it is defined as miscarriage or induced termination before twenty weeks' gestation, which is considered nonviable.

Throughout history, abortion has been induced by various methods. The moral and legal aspects of abortion are subject to intense debate in many parts of the world.

Answer 4

Exactly !!
They get to go straight to Heaven and don't have to face the possibility of sinning and going to hell.

If I was a fetus I would want to be aborted.

Answer 5

You need to get your facts straight. Virtually no surgical abortions are committed before 6-7 weeks, at which time the baby has recordable brain waves. Consider the following:

“From six weeks the baby has sensation around its face and mouth. At seven weeks the baby can feel a needle stick and draw back. Even at that time if you put a little probe or instrument in the baby's hand it will curl up its hand around it, so it feels things."
~Dr. Beverly McMillan, OB/GYN, “The Abortion Procedure: Questions and Answers,” PhysiciansforLife.org.

“The sensory nerve of the face, the Trigeminal nerve, is already present in all of its three branches in a four-week-old human embryo. At seven weeks they twitch or turn their head away from a stimulus in the same defensive maneuver seen at all stages of life.”
~E. Blechschmidt and S. Wintrap, National Right to Life News, May 20, 1987.

“Try sticking an infant with a pin and you know what happens. She opens her mouth to cry and also pulls away. Try sticking an eight-week-old human fetus in the palm of his hand. He opens his mouth and pulls his hand away. A more technical description would add that changes in heart rate and fetal movement also suggest that intrauterine manipulations are painful to the fetus.”
~J.C. Willke, MD and B.H. Willke, RN, “Fetal Pain,” Abortion: Questions and Answers, Hayes Publishing Company, 2003, p. 102. (Citing Volman & Pearson, “What the Fetus Feels,” British Medical Journal, 26 January 1980, pp. 233-234.)

“By this age [eight weeks] the neuro-anatomic structures are present. What is needed is (1) a sensory nerve to feel the pain and send a message to (2) the thalamus, a part of the base of the brain, and (3) motor nerves that send a message to that area. These are present at eight weeks. The pain impulse goes to the thalamus. It sends a signal down the motor nerves to pull away from the hurt . . . The [cerebral] cortex isn’t needed to feel pain. The thalamus is needed and is functioning at eight weeks. Even complete removal of the cortex does not eliminate the sensation of pain.”
~J.C. Willke, MD and B.H. Willke, RN, “Fetal Pain,” Abortion: Questions and Answers, Hayes Publishing Company, 2003, p. 101, 104.

“As the famous work of Dr. Davenport Hooker shows, in his many thousands of feet of film, babies at this maturity [eight to ten weeks] are responsive to touch. The fetus also responds violently to painful stimuli—needle puncture and injection of cold or of hypertonic solutions—stimuli which you and I find painful, children will tell you are painful, and the neonate, to judge from his responses, finds painful.”
~Sir Albert Lilley, the late “Father of Fetology” and former professor of perinatal physiology at the University of Aukland, in an interview for the book The Tiniest Humans by Robert L. Sassone.

"Lip tactile response may be evoked by the end of the seventh week. At eleven weeks, the face and all parts of the upper and lower extremities are sensitive to touch. By thirteen and a half to fourteen weeks, the entire body surface, except for the back and the top of the head, are sensitive to pain."
~S. Reinis and J. Goldman, The Development of the Brain, C. Thomas Publishers, 1980.

"The first detectable brain activity in response to noxious (pain) stimuli occurs in the thalamus between the ninth and tenth weeks."
~S. Reinis and J. Goldman, The Development of the Brain, C. Thomas Publishers, 1980.

A British commission on fetal sentience (i.e., awareness) summarized that “...there is a considerable and growing body of evidence that the fetus may be able to experience suffering from around eleven weeks of development.”
~Human Sentience Before Birth: The Commission of Inquiry into Fetal Sentience, CARE Trust, October 1996.

“[An eleven to twelve-week-old fetus] can be taught by sound signals to anticipate and recoil from a pain stimulus, but no two little ones will respond the same. They are already individuals.”
~J.C. Willke, MD and B.H. Willke, RN, “Life or Death,” Hayes Publishing Company, 1993.

Researchers have also found that the unborn are likely more sensitive to pain than newborn infants:

“The nerve fibers which send pain impulses to the brain are also present before the fibers which reduce pain are working—so the early fetus may suffer more pain.”
~Dr. Peter McCullagh, MD, D. Phil, John Curtin School of Medical Research, The Foetus as Transplant Donor, John Wiley & Sons, 1987.

“…A fetus’s sensory neurons…appear to be more sensitive than those of the adult or newborn baby.”
~M. Fitzgerald of University College London, Nature, 9 April 1987, Vol. 326, p. 603.

If any doubt remains that the unborn suffer pain during abortion, one need only watch The Silent Scream, a documentary narrated by Dr. Bernard Nathanson, a former abortionist. For the film, an actual first-trimester abortion was recorded via ultrasound. The 11-week-old unborn baby can be seen frantically dodging the suction instrument again and again, while her heartbeat increases from 140 to 200 beats per minute. When she is finally caught and dismembered, her mouth clearly opens wide in a “silent scream.” The video can be viewed online at www.silentscream.org (see part 3).

The evidence shows that unborn babies ARE capable of suffering during abortion, but regardless, it's wrong to kill innocent human beings, whether they feel pain or not. Shooting someone as they sleep is still murder. Still don't think abortion is murder? See:

And by the way, a three-year-old would go straight to heaven if her father beat her to death, too. Would that make killing her acceptable?

Answer 6

In the case of 150 celled embryo, the 17th cell itches a little.

Answer 7

Did you see???

Answer 8

Very scary avatar with the caption 'the killer is me'. What are you trying to prove?

Answer 9

It rips the baby apart while it is still alive. that is more than anyone should have to deal with.

Answer 10

And how do you know all of these so called facts?
