ImWithStupid Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 I too am split on abortion. I don't think it's right, but as long as it's legal, I don't feel I have the right to say someone can't do it. Quote
emkay64 Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I don't really agree with abortion. I wouldn't be interested in stopping the general population from having one though either. I guess the question being "What is the unborn"? Embryo means ?growing within? and fetus is a Latin term that means ?unborn offspring? or ?little one.? These words simply describe a human at a certain stage of development (embryo up to the end of 8 weeks post-fertilization and fetus from the end of 8 weeks to birth). In the same way, the term ?teenager? identifies someone from age 13 to 19. I feel it is taking a life...most of the time for selfish reasons. Quote
wez Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Didn't we have to close and lock the last "abortion smoothie".. I think one womans opinion on this carries more weight than all the men on Earth's combined and those 2 should just stfu until they can grow a fetus to term... You cannot give a fetus human rights without trampling on the human rights of a women.. It's a dilemma. Are we gonna lock up pregnant women who continue to smoke and drink? Eat bad food? Quote
wez Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Here's this too.. if it's murder to abort a fetus bore out of love, or even a fetus bore out of a night of drunkin' lust, then it's murder to abort a fetus bore out of forcible rape. There can be no "except in the case of.... " Be pretty freakin sadistic to force a woman to carry her rapist seed to term... Quote
ImWithStupid Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Didn't we have to close and lock the last "abortion smoothie".. That was on you and BroMan. Not the topic so much. Quote
eddo Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Be pretty freakin sadistic to force a woman to carry her rapist seed to term... Pretty freakin' sadistic to think that another wrong will make up for her being raped... I've said before- sex doesn't make babies. God does. So my faith in a God that knows what He is doing tells me that abortion is wrong. Period. My single biggest problem with abortion is how it is used as a form of birth control. That is sadistic. Quote I'm trusted by more women.
hugo Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 I have seen enough brats to come to lead me to conclude post birth abortions would sometimes be a good thing.
