Personally i think its wrong - thats just me - my opinion.. and im not going to flaunt it - just air it when im asked. However this thread is what they should be - a debate!

why do you guys even bother to respond to all the bullshit that gets posted here. What a waste of time.

Anti-abortionist christians will continue to think abortion IZ EVIL SATANZ RRRRAAAAARRRR BURN IN HELLLL and the rest of us will continue to think it's a valid option. No one is going to convince the other side to support abortion or to stop doing so.
Period.

Using that logic the following would also be true: "if you have an abortion that abortion was meant to happen because there was a purpose to killing that fetus and not bringing it to this earth." get my point? That's ridiculous logic. You can't just say that if you get pregnant it was God's "plan" for you to have a baby. Then I could argue that it was also God's plan for people to have abortions. Let me guess, you are going to disagree with me because God would always be against abortion because that's what they told you in church, right? But I bet they don't talk about the consequences of having that unwanted child? It's actually pretty pathetic, there's all these people who are against abortion, but they have no proposition for other alternatives. Don't give me the abstinence line because we KNOW that does not work. And what the fuck, what about alternatives for people who get pregnant? Like offering help to mothers? I guess you all care a lot about this fetus but once it's born it can go fuck itself, right?

ure really rude . i really dislike youre comments but itz kinda fun listening to how ignorant you sound

wow... so you actually think that it was meant for that baby to die and not live so wht if you're mom was pregnant with you and she decided to get an abortion she was able to take care of you and everything then what do you have to say

Maybe the baby's purpose was to be killed for the sake of providing job security for abortionists.

okay abortion is the most horrible thing that can ever be exposed that is basically destroying gods creations and making it okay causes consequences to tell the truth how many lifes after accepting abortion let them live without regretting this is horrible if u have a baby that baby was meant to be born because there was a purpose for that child beaing brought into this earth and u just killed gods creations and destroyed ure soul god has a purpose for everyone in this life

Abortion is MURDER!!!!!!!

Okay sooo I haven't been on here in like forever. And this caught my eye so i figured, eh why not? First off I see both points of veiw. Yes, every woman should have the right to choose what they do to their body. It's YOUR body YOU choose whatever you want to do to it. It's no one else's business but your own, except maybe your doctor, but that's beside the point. And technically we may be "killing" another induvidual, so it could be considered as murder. And I understand and respect each point, but I will have to go with the pro-choice. Simply because it's my body I will do whatever I choose. What I do,however, think is wrong is using abortion as birth control. C'mon now having unprotected sex, get prego, abortion, then doing the process over and over again. I find that idiotic and just wrong. There are pills and rubbers for that, thank you very much. And just using abortion as an excuse not to use those things, is down right dumb. Plus I already think that there are enough children out there that don't have parents. That don't have a family to love them. Why add more? Which is why i totally plan to adopt. Also keep in mind having parents could be totally worse then not having parents. Ever read A Child Called "IT"? Perfect example. Just because you can HAVE kids dosen't mean that you should. Anyways getting off topic here. So...yeahh that's it, any inperfections that you find in my post, well write them down then shove it where the sun don't shine. Thanks,

I have, and I disagree with you.

How would you fell if, when your mother was pregnant with you, she decided to have an abortion because you were an inconvienence?

I don't know how I would feel, because I wouldn't exist.

And I know many people who've had abortions, not simply because it was an inconvenience, but because they couldn't have a baby at that point in time. Furthermore, it is not anyone's place, much less the governments, to force someone to have a baby. And we like to call our country the "land of the free?" I think that whole idea goes down the drain when you aren't even entitled to your own body.

quote:

I bet you wouldn't be to happy about that.It't easy to say something is fine until you have a personal experience with it.

Do you know anyone who's been aborted and lived to tell about the experience? No? Okay, so then don't talk about having a personal experience with it. On the other hand, I know many people who got pregnant and decided to have abortions, and I do know for a fact that they would have suffered a lot if it had been ilegal and they couldn't do it.

*flourish* Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, a newbie. Who wants to start?

Mpawprint, a suggestion, try to read at least some of the thread before you post so as to avoid repeating something that has already been said multiple times, especially when you repeat it without adding any new argument or evidence.

no.abortion isn't right but..your entitled to your opinion. As the people who are against it.

quote:

No one will ever come to an agreement.

In a way, I agree with you. I think it's ridiculous to think that this debate will end anytime soon. However, you seem to be implying that we shouldn't be arguing about it this much (correct me if I'm wrong) and on that count I have to disagree. This has become an issue where laws are being made on it, laws that affect both sides and therefore we can't sit back and "well we're never going to agree so lets everybody just forget about it."

quote:

and those that are for it, will only show the good sides of abortion.

I have to take issue with that generalization. I am strongly pro-choice, but I don't deny that abortion has serious failings. I just think that there are cases where the "good" that can come from it outweigh the failings.

Like everything else, Abortion is a double sided issue. No one will ever come to an agreement. Those that are against it will only show one side of the issue and those that are for it, will only show the good sides of abortion.
In my point of view, I do not think that there is nothing wrong with abortion. I was actually thinking of having an abortion one time considering that I thought I was pregnant. You may think that I did not take the precautions but I did! There is something bound to go wrong. As of right now I'm not planning to have a family or anything like that. Im majoring in BioChem and believe me its a long way to go, and I cannot afford any distractions. So, if there is a time that I might need an Abortion, I'll take it.

Double post, please don't shoot me.

Drama, no one (well, I can't say that, lets go with almost no one) thinks that abortion is "great." In this particular case, Maya was, I'm fairly sure, being sarcastic. Just to clear that up...

It may come as a surprise, but pro-choice people still do have babies.

No moneyshot . Those videos are a total tease.

are you kidding! even if this is a joke thread, it definitely caught my eye. first of all, i'm pro-choice. a woman has the right to choose what she wants to do with her own life and body. with that said, no one wants to have an abortion. things happen, and people make mistakes. but personally, i'd rather people didn't bring babies into this world unless they had their priorities all straight, and a plan for how they were going to accomplish their goals and provide for the baby.
