Sometimes using emotions is a good way to convince someone. There may be facts behind it, but with certain topics, certain approaches are more appropriate than others. Nephilim, why don't you just accept that someone believes a different way than you instead of trying to demean them?

quote: I view abortion this way. If a mother does not want a child or feels that it would be neglected or would not grow up how she feels a child should, that is usually when an abortion takes place. I would rather a child be dead than suffer.
So would you be fine with a person going into a homeless community and killing the kids. After all you would rather that they die than suffer. quote: But, if there ever was a mass murder where victims were selected randomly and not because of a group they belonged to, I would be perfectly fine with it.
So you would be perfectly fine with this a horrific incident in Salt Lake City in February. In the incident a Gunman entered the mall complex and shot upon sight and at random targeting bystanders, killing five and wounding four. Here's a link to the story http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,251603,00.htmlquote: Making abortion illegal would accomplish nothing except create a new criminal.
Making something illegal is the government’s way for deterring a type of action. But making abortion illegal you would be removing the support that the government gives to abortion and penalize those who break the law. The new law would only make new criminals if the decided to break the law.

To assume someones reaction ahead of time is jumping in to conclusions. But I wont argue that point. :P Anyhow, thanks for taking the time to respond to my question.

I don't condemn it for that reason...I condemn it for the many times I've stated I believe its murder to kill an ainnocent child. && I know some of you don't believe that so I'm not even trying to argue that anymore.

Life itself can cause massive amounts of stress. The stress argument doesn't exactly work, since there are a great many things that are stressful in life, including abortion. Swimming causes stress. Driving causes stress. Eating (or not eating) causes stress. And all of them cause different amounts of stress for different people, just as with abortion. Someone could go through an abortion and feel nothing later, just as if they had gotten a wart removed. Someone else, on the other hand, would feel immensely guilty if they even thought of having an abortion. You shouldn't condemn abortion based on the fact that people who shouldn't have had abortions (i.e. people who can't handle something like that) went and had them anyways.

Guess what also can cause stress and guilt. ADOPTION! Imagine knowing that somewhere in the world your child is walking around. Knowing that they could bump into you on the street and you wouldn't even know who it was...

NOT A WORD!!! Anyways.... I realised I'm never having kids. We're studing the reproductive process and giving birth in school. Why anyone would want that is beyond me.... And now for the on topic part of my post: There are much greater psycological issuse with abortion than there are with birth.

I would think it's shorthand for "and" and "plus," among other things. But it seems harder to type && and ++ than the words they represent... Anyways... quote: almost every woman does from the pshycological stress it puts on women ++ the guilt of killing their baby. As I believe has been said before, there are many things that cause psychological stress. For instance, giving birth to a child can cause severe stress to a woman. Interestingly enough, this can be severe enough for the woman to kill her child (this is rare, but it happens). So, if abortion is bad because it can cause stress and guilt, should we say giving birth is bad because it can cause stress and guilt?
