Answer 1

Good point.

We have all sorts of laws regulating people's "choices" in this country. Guns can't be purchased without proper identification and a background check. Alcohol and tobacco can't be purchased unless the customer can prove they are of legal age. Speed limits govern how fast we can drive, and some drugs are ALWAYS illegal to buy, no matter what any doctor says!

In Chicago now, it is illegal to sell fois gras at restaurants. California is considering outlawing plastic grocery bags. Having sex with a minor (15 and under) is ALWAYS illegal, whether or not there is consent! You cannot board a plane carrying anything that could be considered a weapon: sizzors, knitting needles, toothpaste, yada yada. Airports don't allow "freedom of speech": it is illegal to say the words "gun", "bomb", "knife", etc. at an airport.

Point being: even in a "free" country, we have to accept some limits on our lives. Laws define those limits.

Abortion kills a helpless human being, to the great profit of the doctor. This business should be OUTLAWED. Abortion doctors don't care about rights. They care about their own bottom line!

Answer 2

You are absolutely correct. It has always annoyed me to hear some fool say that they think abortion should be legal, but that they are against it. Why would someone be for abortion if they realized that it was killing a human being? Conversely, why would anyone be personally opposed to abortion if they believed that it was merely a surgical procedure, and not murder?

You can't have it both ways. If you are opposed to abortion, it is because you know what it is doing. And if you realize what it is doing, you can't very well take the position that it is a matter of choice.

If you saw your neighbor chasing their child around the backyard with an ax, what would you do? Would you consider your neighbor to be exercising his/her choice? Well, killing an unborn baby is the same thing.

Answer 3

He maximum in all probability does not stay interior the best previous u . s . a .., he might desire to stay in between the Muslim countries the place there is not any unfastened speech, and does not understand what democracy skill. purely a remark on giving beginning.

If the guy have been to have the 1st, and it replace into the girl's turn to have the 2d, there could never be a third by skill of how. i do no longer beleive in abortion except the mothers existence is at stake. I even have 7 babies of my own. All married by skill of now.

Answer 4

It happens because we are in a society where most people are somehwere in the middle on the issue of abortion. When half the people around you are buying into the sort of false logic you pointed out, then it's only natural to follow the herd.

I am pro-life all the way.

Answer 5

I agree with you there 100% the only time i think that abortion is OK is if the mother carrying the child will die from giving birth to it because then that child would not be able to live a good life because of resentment it would feel from the father of the child or the siblings for having caused the death of the mother. But even if a girl is rape she could still give that child a chance at life and get it adopted there are other options besides abortion. But really I believe you should not have sex UNLESS you are ready to have a child otherwise you shouldn't because you are risking getting pregnant each time and eventually it will happen.

Answer 6

I'm not; I think abortion is wrong. But at the same time, it isn't my decision to tell someone else what to do with their body. A fetus is NOT a person; it is a potential person. There is a BIG difference.

Besides, how may anti-abortionists have adopted unwanted children? Most of the people who oppose abortion support a political party which has consistently cut funding to help the people who are most likely to get abortions. Most do not put their money where their mouths are.

You'll never get it completely done away with anyway, many women who wanted abortions found out that falling down the stairs often took care of the problem. I'm not saying that's the right way to do it, but it did happen. Outlaw abortion, and it likely will again.

Answer 7

I take it you are a Christian and you are pro-life! Your analogies are wrong so you can't use them to make your point. Your mixing man laws up with your God's laws and doing a real bad job of it.

I take it that you are Christian, you are pro-life and you believe that the Bible is completely true. Then where the bible defines free will "God also determined that man would have free-will, the ability and responsibility to choose to obey Him (cf. Gen. 3:1-6; Josh. 24:15; Matt.
11:28)" you believe that any one can do as they choose. They must explain themselves to their creator and has nothing to do with you!

I guess that you must not believe that your God can take care of things without man's intervention. How sad...

Maybe this will explain why many of us other religions are getting new followers daily. You can't have everything both ways, you either believe in the whole enchilada or you believe in nothing.

Answer 8

I understand what you are trying to say. However, the reason I am Pro Choice is because a woman should have the right to decide what to do with HER BODY. I AM NOT FOR ABORTION!!!

I believe my children should be baptized but I did not baptize them when they were small. I wanted it to be their choice to accept Christ.

God gives us the choice to choose eternal life. What could be more important than that. Just because people are given choices does not mean we approve if they make the wrong one. I'm sure God doesn't. Why can't we?

Answer 9

I understand where you are going it with this. So many people keep abortion as a birth control method. Some of my friends have had several abortions.I wish people would not kill these babies.

If mother's life is threatened, I understand. Or if one is a victim of rape and gets pregnant. We need to protect these babies. : )

Answer 10

I am not for abortion. However, I do not believe that I have the right to make that decision for other people, just as I do not have the right (or ability) to make the decision to accept Christ for other people.

Aborton, like many other issues, are moral issues baed on one's religious beliefs. How can I respect another person's right to worship the religion of their choice and then insist they follow the morals (guidelines) of mIne?

Pre Choice is not the same as Pro Abortion. Pro Choice simply means that each person must make the choice for themselves.
