    I think rape is wrong, I think incest is wrong, I think the many starving children in the world is wrong, I think the many abused and murdered children in the world is wrong, Do I think abortion is wrong? No, I think it is a sad reality.

    I did once upon a time as I grew up in the Catholic faith and that was what I learned. Then I grew up and saw all the abused, neglected, missing and murdered children who were born to people who didn't want them in the first place and only brought them into the world because they didn't believe in abortion. It made me ponder what was the worse scenario, them being aborted and not suffering at the hands of the person who didn't want them, or them suffering an unhappy short life full of abuse or neglect. I just don't think anyone should bring an unwanted child into the world to suffer. It's hard enough for children under the best of circumstances.

    When I see people standing and picketing in front of an abortion clinic (thankfully I no longer live close enough to one to see it) harrassing the women going in (probably the hardest decision that woman will ever make anyway), trying to make that woman feel like they are the devil's reincarnate; I want to give all those unwanted, aborted children to those people to raise so they can find a better way to spend their time rather than standing in front of a clinc harrassing women on what will probably be one of the worse days of her life.

    Yes, abortion is most certainly wrong, and it is murder too. The moment the child is concieved, it is alive. Abortion is just as bad as killing some eleven year old because the child is alive, it has just never had the chance to experience the world. Abortion is sick and cruel.

    How can one have a proper debate with a person who has not only asked a question but has also answered it. Because of this I wll keep my opinion to myself as you have clearly made up your mind that abortion is wrong so what is the use of me or anyone else saying otherwise?

    I'll tell you what I do think...


    I think it figures that someone called "Jesus Freak." Would be asking this question.


    As for me... I don't think it is anyone elses damn business what a woman does with her body.

    At the end of the day, it is between her and her higher power and NO ONE else.

    Morality begins and ends at the tip of your own nose in reality... But some people, have no concept of what reality is and feel the need to beat on everyone that doesn't believe exactly as they do.

    Mainly Jesus Freaks!

    I do not belive it it right to have an abortion. With that said I cannot condem someone who does so. They choose what they believe is right for them. I do not believe partial birth abortions should be legal.

    In the old days and mentioned in the Bible as well, unwanted babies were placed in the arms of a red-hot metal statue. The baby was literally instantly fried and killed. They didn't have the processes there are today.

    We haven't progressed very much have we...with the controceptives available today that they didn't have back then, women and even their partners should be more responsible to use them and properly. This would eliminate the need for abortions.

    This ALWAYS seems to be a sensitive subject.

    I don't think or feel that abortion is wrong, HOWEVER, I don't think it should be used as form of or instead of birth control.

    If you don't want a baby right now then use a reliable form birth control and don't have sex without a condom because of STD's.

    It's that simple!

    I think it is wrong religiously. however religion should not be the basis of law, other wise you end up making things like prostitution and suiside illegal. while I believe it wrong, I can concied that first trimester women should have the legal choice to kill the infant. however anyone who thinks partial birth abortion is acceptable are wacked out of their minds. just because the baby hand't passed the vagina yet does not mean it is still ok to kill it.

    I think that the rights of a woman to have ownership of her own body, especially her reproductive system, supercede the rights of her unborn. To grant the right of personhood to the unborn restricts the mother's already established rights. Therefore I don't think abortion is ethically wrong.

    This is a full response to Galooly who commented on my post. Please read that before reading this. His comments and mine are attached at the end for reference

    WOW.. How long did it take you to think that up?

    What I am saying Einstein is that this has nothing to do with me. See it’s NOT my decision to make so I am not qualified to answer with a definitive. The question of right or wrong is most likely unanswerable in a spiritual or moral sense and will vary from person to person that doesn’t subscribe to your one-dimensional dogma. But when issues like this arise what learned people do is turn to education and attempt to solve the problem by teaching people of the ramifications thereof. The real answer is not right or wrong but how to prevent the mistake in the first place. If everyone clearly understood their actions they would probably use better judgment, hence less abortions, less insurance premiums, less heartache, and everything else!

    BUT apparently your trenchant “Good Logic” answer sums it all up and now everyone should bend over to the great Galooly. Tell me something genius, what have you done to change things? Where is your impressive resume? Have I seen you on the Nightly news, the ever omnipresent Galooly, bastion of society and savior of everyone? How many abortion clinics have you blown up or how many young girls (and boys for that matter) have you taken the time to educate so they don’t fall into I would perceive as one of the toughest decisions any woman would ever encounter in her life, I’m guessing zero, because you just want to run your mouth. Off the top of my head, I am guessing women don’t run off to get abortions for kicks. It must be a horrible and devastating ordeal that they will carry with them for life. You know, its real easy to piss out sarcastic comments with non-answers like "Good Logic".

    But that can’t be all? Tell us now, what you, and that great Galooly brain has to share with the proletariats. What makes you the expert? You know….. you have no damn answers because you are a dolt! You wanna know how you change stuff, moron? Take the time to teach them so they understand “before” the tragedy and don’t pile on after YOU failed them. But wait. I spoke too soon. You have already taught me without me realizing and it was there all the time in your comment of "Good Logic"? You taught me that you are an uneducated feeble minded jackass that is doomed to a benighted existence! Have fun goose-stepping over your friends.


    PREVIOS POST
    To me it makes no difference what anyone does. Its for each person to act responsible and accountable for your own actions. Im not you. So you can do what you please.

    If you believe that there is a life in there and you are going to abort it then you need to live with the fact that you are killing life that is at least part of you and you are half responsible for creating, not me.. If you dont feel it is a growing life in there, then do what you please, again, I am not you and woudl never tell you or judge you on those actions.

    Its not my life but I would suggest to anyone ponder that before they get into that situation because its a big decision. Its not like deciding if you want "fucking fries with that".

    Wisely, I was smart and excercised caution and never put myself into a place where I would have been half of that decision and neither have the women I have been with

    I don't think this question is open to absolute answers. Is it wrong to abort a child conceived by a violent rape? Is it wrong to abort a child who is horribly deformed(I mean horribly deformed--not a simple eyesight problem--please don't hit me with that). I don't know when a fetus becomes alive...Certainly the sperm and egg are alive before conception..but I hardly think that a cell at stage two division is a person..but this is just all my personal opinion..and this argument as I said has no absolute answers.

    It's not a black-and-white issue. Abortion gets increasingly wrong as the fetus develops. By the time the 3rd trimester arrives, I really can't think of any combination of circumstances which would override the right of the baby to live.

    What makes people crazy about this topic is that we tend to think in "binary" terms about all moral issues: something is either right or wrong, yes? But the answer is "no", that's not true. Many actions have moral consequences which are somewhere in between -- some good effects, some bad effects. It's the TOTALITY of those effects which matters, and you can only know the totality of those effects approximately, not exactly.

    In addition, the "wrongness" of an action is very situation-dependent. The only way to make a confident judgment is to have all of the details about the situation, which basically means you have to BE in the situation. That's what judgment is all about: being able to make a sound judgment call in real life, in real situations.

    Most moral thinking is badly broken because it's absolutist: i.e. "lying is always wrong". But if the Gestapo is knocking on your door asking if there are Jews in the attic, the RIGHT thing to do is lie. Without that context, there's no confidence about right and wrong.

    I think, unless under VERY extreme circumstances, that it is absolutely wrong! It is never our place to choose whether or not a life is worthy of living. As for the circumstances, I'm still not sure what I think as far as if you have to choose the life of the baby or the mother.

    It's an interesting debate. I struggle with the idea that someone could actually want an abortion, and I do think that after conception it is person... I also see the other side of the argument, though... it's kinda like a pre-emptive euthanasia. I still think the best solution would be t use birth control in the first place, but ultimately, it's something you'd have to deal with yourself, and if you're comfortable with your actions, then what does it matter?

    um being religon has nothing to do with it. i am agnostic and was once athiest but my opinion has always been the same. ABORTION IS MURDER. now i think it should be illegal except in 2 situations. If a girl gets pregnant to young sometimes her body might not be able to handle it and it could kill her so she should have the choice. Also if you know it's like at least a 90% chance you'll die giving birth then that person should have the option. Any other situation it should be wrong. If somebody is raped there is this thing out there called ADOPTION. This living, growing, fetus deserves life like anybody else. Thats the thing people think it isn't alive or something but it very much is.
