Are you Pro-Life or Pro-Abortion

[constituent]

So by that logic, many shut ins, elderly, people living off the grid, homeless people, etc should all be killed because nobody will miss them.

EDIT: And mountain hermits too!

not even close.

 

[familydog]

not even close.

How so? By what he said, if nobody loves me or cares for me, I don't have any friends etc, I must not be a living person (never mind that fact that a fetus is living...which is how it grows in the womb).

To start off I can say that I am against Abortion, but, I went to "Catholic School" and the funny thing there is, I didn't agree with them all the way, I was about 13yrs old when my best friends sister and mother went to Washington to protest Abortion, now, I think that is wrong because, they want to rule out Abortion from a religious standpoint, well, I just see it as wrong and sick, by using religion to explain that it's wrong you are instantly blocking out people just because they don't want to be seen as a fanatic and I don't want to discourage Abortion through guilt, I want people to see right or wrong.

It's just sick that as time goes by premature kids are being born and surviving earlier and earlier, but, you have people trying to pass laws that say it's ok to pull a child most of the way out, head still inside, that's it, and kill that child, stabbing it in the brain, then throwing it away, go to a Hospital, visit the premature center and look at the newborns that only weigh about a pound, or less, then think about them getting ripped apart, well, thats what happens.

I could ramble all day about this...... here, click this, look at the picture and read the comments there.......

Pro-Choice for Abortion and Pro-Gun Control ? Pro-Gun Control is Choice? That does get me pissed!..............

Again, you are implying with your question, whether it is how you truly feel or merely a side effect of the question you are posing, that there would be a reason that people with downs syndrome would not be allowed to be born. Its like if I were to say "why does God allow people with blue eyes to be born?" and say "is he somehow unhappy with brown eyed people and feels the need to mess up certain people from time to time?" In these questions there is inherently an implication that I somehow see people with blue eyes to be inferior as people, and therefore have to question why they would be allowed to exist.

My point, if it hasnt been made clear yet, is that the answer to your question is the same as the answer to my hypothetical question regarding eye color - what gives our lives value goes beyond whether we have downs syndrome or blue eyes or some other trait. I dont think we disagree here, we just get to this point from different approaches.

The way I have experienced life is very unique to me, just as the way you have experienced life is very unique to you. Because we can never really get beyond our own experiences and actually walk in the shoes of another, its very easy for us to say we would never want to have downs syndrome, never want to be blind or deaf, never want to experience this or that. That we would rather never be born than go through these things. But because we are not omniscient beings, we should not be the ones to judge lives in this manner - this is what I touched on in earlier posts.


Well, I honestly do not see where this is coming from, as I never said anything remotely similar to this. What I did say was that suffering should not be equated to divine punishment from God, and I used the example of Jesus Christ himself, who suffered greatly yet committed no sins.

Christians dont beleive in Karma, which seems to be the general idea you are talking about where having bad things happen to you must be preceded by you doing bad things.

Where went my answer to this post?

Very strange, I answered this post in the morning and remember seeing it after checking new threads.

Now it's gone.

Rats, now I have to re-do it.

By the way, the opposite of "pro-life" is "pro-death."

And the opposite of Congress is Progress!

Okay, enough cheesy jokes, but according to the Guttmacher Institute:

ABORTION DECLINES WORLDWIDE, FALLS MOST WHERE ABORTION IS BROADLY LEGAL

So we'd have less abortions if they were legal, and if abortion was illegal, people would still get them, but they would be unsafe.

C'mon, those are like Bush numbers or something............


Ok, we (US), where it is legal, have 100 abortions in a year, well, that other country over there, where it is illegal, has 10 abortions a year, now, the year after that we have 80 abortions and that other country has 9, so, what are the headlines, here...............


The United States of America, where abortion is legal had a 20% drop in abortions this year while the other countries like, so and so, where abortion is illegal only had a 10% drop. Abortion being legal seems to make the numbers drop even more...

Pro-death and pro-abortion. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

Talk about a bias poll

 

[Carl Corey]

Women who see abortion as a valid option shouldn't have children, so I'm all in favor of giving them that option and subsequently have one less child.
