Abortion: Your Stand

Is abortion the killing of another life?

I always thought Sperm were just cells. All I know is that in my opinion, as soon as the baby is made, it's alive.

And yes, I noticed you didnt say you were right or wrong, which is good because doing that causes arguments. The topic asked for where we stand, not for whats right and wrong.

Old post and all, but the obvious solution is to force abortion apon them.
Dead babies and no rights.
Do I win?

You do not have the right to an abortion because your body does not belong to you. It belongs to the Holy Living God.

Now what a *bleep*ed up thing to say. If a pregnancy were to occur and the mother would die if she didn't abort, you can't possibly value something that may or may not actually be human over someone who definitely is. You don't get to pass judgement on her. You don't get to sentence her to death. Her body does belong to her, and your religious fanaticism won't change that. Funny how people like you have done more than any atheist ever could to shake my faith in Christianity.

I used to be obsessively pro-life, I still don't like abortion, but I'm not as obsessive about it as I once was

That's terrifying for several reasons, the foremost of which is this is you not being crazy?

I watched a video on it. A lady worked at a place that said abortion while the baby was early is fine. their enemies who said pregnancy was good were across the road. They were mildly friendly to each other but both were sort of distant. Eventually when the lady had to see the baby and said that it was okay since it wasnt old enough to move, she watched he scan thing and it moved. she'd been lied to about the age babies gain a conciousness and could feel pain. she then turned over a new leaf. So yes, I think abortion is Bad. it is essentially killing, since there is life in that belly.

Bull*bleep*. That's propaganda. There is no proof when or where the fetus gains consciousness. I'm not saying your point is necessarily invalid (we need a hell of a lot more reasonable debate on this and a hell of a lot less psychotic fundamentalism) but that's pretty obviously fake, as there have been virtually no cases of abortion clinics lying about this sort of thing and, as I said earlier, no proof when or where the fetus gains consciousness.



The thing that gets me riled up about this is that from what I've seen, a lot of opponents of abortion are less concerned about the baby and more in scaring teenage girls out of sex. Aside from shutting down abortion clinics, the tea party has been trying to limit access to birth control pills- so that they can basically force women to either never have sex or get pregnant.

Being a teenage male I do not approve.
 
When I picture this topic, I picture Scarecrow's siggy. And that's how I picture scarecrow in this thread. Dancing around in glee.

Infact, I shall post my image of scarecrow in this thread.

I would just like to interject and state my opinion on the subject, which is that I'm against abortion unless a pregnancy is a severe health risk to the mother. In cases of rape, etc., it's fine if the mother puts the kid up for adoption if she doesn't want it, but it doesn't justify killing her child.
