You kind of igonred a large part of my argument. Mainly about how legislating morality doesn't work. Making abortions illegal will not suddenly make all americans see things from your point of view and stop getting abortions. If you believe abortions are wrong then your goal should be lower...
That's not true at all. One can be morally against abortion and still not want it illegal in the same way one can be morally against drug use but still want drugs legal. Which would be an intelligent position to take since banning abortions wouldn't improve the situation it would just create...
I had no idea he had a book on abortion. I'll look it up, thanks!
That's fine and dandy but banning abortions wouldn't protect life. Women who are desperate(as the majority of women who get abortions are) will get the abortion regardless if it's legal or not. Only thing that changes is whether...

How do you know the unborn is harmed? If it's brain isn't developed enough...
I agree with RP on a lot of things but his stance on abortion bothers me. Most people on here seem to agree with him so hopefully I'll get some good thought-provoking responses. Even if one believes that human life begins at conception and is personally against abortion I don't see how the...
The FDA approves countless dangerous pharmaceutical meds but still rejects marijuana. When something being FDA approved isn't a very good guarantee of safety I fail to see the beneficial purpose the FDA has for Americans.
Does anyone else find it weird to hear a living thing referred to as property? I don't think there's anything wrong with taking an animal under your care to raise as a pet or for food so as long as the animal is not treated cruelly. Defenseless animals should not be abused by people, they should...
