Is anyone here antiabortion but pro death penalty?

Question

Just wondering. Could you please state what country you're from and maybe a little bit about yourself. Thank you.

I'm pro choice, anti death penalty by the way.

Sorry to be a pain but could you also write your religious background.

Answer 1

No. Pro choice and anti death penalty.
Pro choice but feel technology has changed and it should only be legal up to 16 weeks. With those involved being given much more advice about choices and encouraged to think positively about birth.

Anti death penalty as our legal system has been shown to be so faulty, 'few' verdicts can be trusted fully. Life should mean life though and we should have something similar to the USA where they have murder1, 2 and 3 to indicate the severity of intent.

Answer 2

Well, hello there. That's a pretty good question.

I am pro-choice and anti death-penalty. It's not that I think that abortion is exactly marvellous or anything, I just feel it's an unfortunate necessity in this day and age.

I am absolutely 100% anti the death penalty particularly in view of the enormous numbers of people who have been wrongly convicted in the States.

I am an aethiest most of the time with occassional leanings towards agnosticism, depending on what I've been reading recently.

Oh, and I'm in the UK.

Answer 3

I'm pro choice and anti-death penalty for the same reasons stated by Donna M before me.

I'm an atheist.

British tax-payer. Originally from South America.

Answer 4

I am from south America,born Christian but i don't go to church,I do believe in god. the only reason why i think abortion should be condoned is if the woman was a rape/incest victim,fetus is deformed/infected with deadly disease,or the mother has health complications and her life is in danger,i don't see any other relevant reason why people should have an abortion i think people are either getting dumber with every new generation or there is a serious mixture of some sort of poisoning in our water thats is affecting our right to think logically.i cant believe that people would agree with reasons other than the one i listed above.
As for the death penalty it depends on the crime committed but yea why not ,but i have a better idea instead of killing them and wasting so much money why don't we send them/banish them to Afghanistan/Iran,Iraq or someplace like that let them server there time there fighting the real enemy.there life is useless anyway so why not put it to our advantage.take out the solders and send in the special prisoner solders i am sure they will take care of the problems and if they die it wont matter.since they cant live in society anymore it wont be a big deal.weather or not they want to they will have to fight sooner of later because those people inhabiting the those countries will attack them.so we all would win in the end.death penalty taken care of,enemies dead and money saved everyone happy.life goes on

Answer 5

Well, I am from the U.S. and I am anti-abortion, b/c as far as i can tell the innocent child has done nothing wrong. However, i am pro death penalty if the person is guilty. For example, Jeffrey Dahmer. He murdered at least 17 boys/men from 1978-1991. They were particularly gruesome involving sodomy, necrophilia, dismemberment, and cannibalism. He obviously was not an innocent by stander and i believe people (although I hesitate to call him that) deserve to be put to death rather than taking up tax payer dollars and getting an education while in our prisons

Answer 6

Hi i`m a white 20 year old South African Male. I am antiabortion and pro death penalty. But not in all cases if a woman was raped she should have the choice to abort the foetus but is she is a whore or **** no way she made the decision and she should just stick with her bad decision. Death penalty that's a hard one how can you ever be 100% sure if some1 is guilty. There have been cases where inocent ppl have been given the death penalty. So i believe that both these actions (since they incolve the death of a human) should be used carefully but should deffinately be implemented.

Answer 7

Dear mikelmook: you've a knack for coming up with provocative questions. My compliments, sir! Now to answer your question: I am American and Confucian. A singularly happy combination, yes? Anyway, as a Confucian, I find the conservative Christian response both logical and ethical: why not spare the innocent while destroying creatures who are guilty as hell?
In contrast, the liberal party line appears utterly perverse, if not demented: it sanctions destruction of the innocent (mainly as a matter of convenience) while affording clemency to felons, whose crimes are often unspeakably vile. I suppose that Christians would call such proceedings Satanic; I consider that status quo merely thoughtless, thus barbaric.
By the way, as Everyone knows that children in the womb are inconvenient, therefore fair game, it's no wonder that impressionable kids use similar logic against persons who inconvenience them: using blades or bullets to deal with troublesome teachers, parents, etc. Call it a kind of abortion aftermath, or perhaps reverse-abortion. As a Confucian, dear friend, I don't approve.

Answer 8

I do not believe in either one.

Abortion is so obviously wrong, its taking an innocint life.

I used to be pro-death penalty, but have since changed my opinion. Life, even of a condemned criminal has value. A rapist is not sentenced (officially at least) to be raped. Why should a murderer be dealt with by murder?

I am agnostic and the son of a former police officer.

Answer 9

UK we murdered 194,000 innocent children in the UK last year through abortion, and released convicted murderers on license. How can we call ourselves a civilised country. Abortion is murder of the innocent, The argument about the woman's right to chose and its her body hold no sway when birth control is so readily and freely available here. There is no more innocent life than a babe in the womb, and yes I can make an exception for the rape argument, but that's all and charges must be filed first. As for the Death Penalty if a premeditated murder take place and a person is found Guilty they have given up their right to live.

Answer 10

I agree with most other people here.
I'm anti-abortion (unless there's a medical reason or rape involved) and I'm pro-death penalty, although we don't have the death penalty here in the UK.

and I'm not religious :)
