Wanna hear my idea for clearing the whole abortion/anti-abortion argument?

Question

Instead of aborting the fetus, transplant it into one of the anti-abortionists, so they can have it and prove how much they care.

poseiden_is_back: We already have the process, and it has been successfully used many times in cases of traumatic death, or non-transferable disease process (such as most cancers). It's really no more difficult than in-vitro.

Pisces: I agree, but there are far too many cases where that is not an option for the female. We'll not get into details, since the subject tends to bring out the real demon in me.

Gemma S: *applause*

Answer 1

How about forcing them to adopt all the unwanted and abandoned children that aren't "white babies" that get left living in foster care their entire lives - only to be kicked out on their own at age 18 with nothing. These are the children most at risk for having unwanted children of their own.

Answer 2

First, JC is correct. There are people in this very community who are emotional basket cases because they are unable to do this one thing. Executing the child is, in this case, along the lines of burning your lunch in front of a starving man because you don't have time to eat it right now.

Secondly, I don't think you mean it.

If I came out with a plan, right now, to allow for the safe transfer of a child from one woman to another, I don't think you would go for it. For one thing, once you actually put some thought into this pretty old and unoriginal idea, you would realize that the legal ramifications are enormous. The first time a child born in such a situation found out that the grass was greener on the other side of the genetic fence, the lawsuits would start flying. If we tried to build in some kind of legal firewall, there would eventually be a case where a woman claims she was coerced into making the switch, and there would be a whole other set of ramifications to face. And if you could build a perfect legal system around making this possible, people would still choose to execute the child for the same reason they do now; the procedure would be inconvenient, painful, expensive, whatever. The problem isn't the pregnancy, the problem is that women choose to get (or are coerced into having) abortions because someone involved thinks that executing the child makes the situation that caused the pregnancy go away. And even if rape and incest were a statistically significant number of the abortions performed, executing the child would still not fix what happened.

So thanks for playing, but no soup for you. Go back and ponder this saying: what is done cannot be undone.

Answer 3

WE grew up being taught that murder is not good. Before abortion was not a norm but now it begins to be accepted and part of the norm. But basically it is still murder when you abort an unborn child. when it comes to the determination when life has started, actually as soon as the fetus starts to develop from day 1 life has started already. The development of fetus starts with combining of sperm and egg cell...these 2 cells when combined already created life...its the 1st process and very important one. overall...abortion should not be allowed in whatever circumstances may be. Its just a matter of accepting the god given gift even if was cause through criminal action. Additional answer: regarding the "murder" of animals for consumption, God already gave us the authority to do that after the great flood. But what is really murder is when you kill the animal without any apparent reason. There are dogs that were put to sleep because they are dangerous but if you kill them just for the heck of it then that is totally bad!

Answer 4

"It's really no more difficult then in-vitro"
Well, uh, YES it is. You do realize a fertilized egg will become IMPLANTED in the moms uterus...and don't forget about that little connector called a placenta and umbilical cord. Maybe a head transplant will work better for you

"an incubator against her will"
Unless there is rape involved, pregnancy is never an accident. The only 100% birth control is abstinence. It should never be a choice to stop a beating heart.

Answer 5

OR...they could act like responsible human being and accept that they acted irresponsible and allowed a human life to become in existence, (which was there fault) and if they dont want it or can't care for it give it to some who can and does want a child. There are million of childless parent who can't have kids and would love to have the opportunity to have one. Unfortunately, it is ok, when women get pregnant (because they didn't wear a condemn or forgot the pill) They can just "get rid" of the "mistake" that is there daughter or son, who is defenseless, and has no choice in the matter and and didnt ask to be created. He or she is then chopped up or sucked out and thrown in the garbage.

Answer 6

I think most anti-abortion supporters WOULD willingly accept a fetus if it meant either life or death of an innocent baby. I know I would! That's just how we are. We are very compassionate and would give the shirt off our back for people. If you are not an anti-abortion supporter you wouldn't understand!!!!

Answer 7

I am decidedly pro-choice, but if that were a viable solution (or if technology ever created artificial incubators for human embryos), then I would likely find myself turning to "pro-life because there are other options that don't require the woman to be an incubator against her will."

Now if only there were people out there who would step forward and adopt all the "less than perfect" children who are already needing homes...

Answer 8

Come up with the process and you'll win a nobel prize.

Answer 9

I dunno. I still like the idea of letting men 'abort' their children up to the age of 18. If it's the woman's body for 9 months, why should the man bear the financial responsibility for a gang banger or druggie? This would allow the gene pool to be cleaned up at the same time!

[edit] Ever notice how Liberals are so keen to FORCE their ideas on others??? So VERY tolerant, huh?

Thumbs DOWN:??? What ever happened to 'equal rights'???

Answer 10

hmm... it could be a sponsorship thing- people could choose whose aborted fetus to use (I see a high supply of crack fetuses and a low supply of healthy fetuses being an issue- nobody'd want to sponsor the crack baby).
