Abortion: The Morality Issue

Featured Replies

I found this on another board. Don't know where it's from, however.

It must be true because it came from the internet.

 

:plain

I am not sure how far along my aunt was when she had her son... he was 1 pound 13 ounces when he was born and now he is very healthy :)

 

I think he was 4 months premature :headscratch I think he was supposed to be born in August but he was born in May :confused

It isn't a human being till its breathing on its own without the use of the mother. Thats my view and once the abortion occurs, the fetus is dead before it can survive. And fourth month old premie baby survival rates are so low that you are probably more likely to die from a shark bite than live as a fourth month old premie baby.

Yep, anything that can't survive on its own doesn't have the right to live. It's time to pull the plug on everyone currently on life support.

ownage here

 

 

The left's case that fetuses are just fetuses doesn't hold water. Just a lame attempt at swaying the convincable feminist demographic that killing their babies is within their rights.

So people saying people who were raped should bite the bullet and give birth to a baby which might be carrying AIDs holds water?

 

I think people who are against abortion should have to go to women who were raped and now impregnanted and tell them that they have to bite the bullet and have the baby because god says so.

 

I would have no problem going before anyone against abortion and tell them that it is right and the woman's choice.

People on life support are different then fetuses. Fetuses are just an extension of the mother and once that is cut then the fetuses deserve all rights given to anyone born.

 

that's right, those people on live support are not human beings.

Exactly. :thumbup

I forget the name of the woman here in Florida, but she has been brain dead for a while. The husband thinks she should be taken off of life support because doctors say she isn't going to recover. Do you think its right they keep her body and potentially soul en-limbo by machines even though by all accounts is brain dead?

she will eventually die one day. why pull the plug on her? pulling the plug on her kills her. so that means that a person is playing God with life. i think we as humans are to do anything possible to survive. when somebody can decide when somebody else is going to die, thats basically murder. her body will die off on itself one day. keeping her soul en limbo? what the hell is that supposed to mean? the only soul you should be worried about is the persons pulling the plug.

ok first off i am totally against abortion. i dont care what the scenario.

 

let me just give u all a little background of my experiences with abortion.

 

#1. my mom wanted me aborted. i found this out later in life and its changed the way i view my mother. i wouldnt be here today if she had went through with it and my dad didnt trick her. i now have to live with this knowledge and its sickening

 

#2. my mom took some pills or whatever to do some abortion thing. i dont really remember, since i was 4 or 5, but all i remember is a whole lot of blood and my mom almost dying. later i found out through my dad that i was supposed to have a sister but my mom aborted it. the fetus or baby or whatever was like 4 months old and my mom discharged it or w.e in the bathtub. my father cried when he told me this and told me some details i dont want to say. i wish he would have never told me this .

 

and what do the ppl do with the dead fetus' i dont know, but its pretty inhumane and i think its sickening and disgusting. if you dont want a baby then dont f*** simple as that. dont kill a baby or ruin ur family over it. they need to outlaw abortions.

 

the funny thing is, i used to be for abortions until my father drew that picture in my head and i started connecting the dots with my early memories

We are playing god with her by pulling the plug on her!? So we aren't playing god with her by keeping her alive?! That is completely contradictory. What more sign do you want god to send that he wants her to go? Her body stopped functioning, it is machines keeping her alive. Her body is already expired, if it wasn't it would live without the machine. Don't you believe your soul and mind are not able to go to heaven until you die? So by keeping her trapped to these machines you are forcing her mind and soul from going to heaven aren't you? So instead of letting her die in peace and go to the after life you are forcing her to stay alive and stay on earth, and you are telling me that is not playing god?

So you would be okay to go up to women who were raped and tell them they have to have the baby in the that they don't want? Or how about a woman who doesn't want the baby? She can't go back and not of had sex. Maybe her husband told her that he had his tubes tied and was lying and now she's pregnant, you want to force her to have a baby? What kinda life do you think an unwanted baby has? The parents can't love the kid if they didn't want to have the kid. Or if they are put up for adoption, in our nation which has horrible foster caring and kids get lost, ugh.

 

And just because you mom chose a barbaric way to have an abortion and discard a fetus doesn't mean all women do, blame your mom for that not the whole gender of people.

what kind of life an unwanted baby has?

 

it's up to the baby, i think alonzo morning was unwanted. i wouldn't say he's lived a bad one.

I forget the name of the woman here in Florida, but she has been brain dead for a while.? The husband thinks she should be taken off of life support because doctors say she isn't going to recover.? Do you think its right they keep her body and potentially soul en-limbo by machines even though by all accounts is brain dead?

we arent playing god keeping her alive. as humans we are supposed to do anything possible to survive. her body is not going to live forever with machines. it will eventually die somehow. pulling the plug makes her die. whats the difference between pulling the plug and shooting her. its the same thing. both cause imidiate death. its just 2 different methods. just because pulling the plug is more of a "quiet" and "painless" way to die, doesnt mean its not under somebody else's control. which is murder. id like to see how finding a way to survive is playing god. tahts the whole point of our existance. if it wasnt we'd still have 25 yr life spans as it was 200 or so years ago. we as humans evolve and find methods to survive. not methods to shorten our existance so that our souls can go to where they want to go "faster".

ok first off i am totally against abortion. i dont care what the scenario.

i was an unwanted baby, so youre saying my mom should have went ahead and aborted me? my life hasnt been too bad at all. like orisha said about alonzo, common now thats no excuse. i think abortion is murder. i saw it with my eyes. i dont care if it was barbaric or not. just because a baby gets aborted in a hospital in more sanitary and less painful conditions, the result is the same - a dead baby. you need to change your morals cuz theyre all screwed up.

we arent playing god keeping her alive. as humans we are supposed to do anything possible to survive.

 

If god wanted her to live when she is unplugged her body would keep on trucking, wouldn't it?

How about those babies that wind up in dumpsters because they were unwanted, they lived great lives right? Hitler was an unwanted baby but his mother wasn't allowed to have an abortion, good thing right? I guess you are happy he stuck around and murder... oh... basically the entire jewish population.

 

My morals are screwed up? You want to take the rights away of people about their bodies. If you outlaw abortion people will find ways to have them, but these ways won't be nearly as safe since most doctors won't par-take in illegal activities. So that would probably lead to more deaths, or at least injuries by women trying to have abortions in unconventional ways.

 

Like I said before. You would be okay to go up to a woman who was raped, is now HIV positive is pregnant with an unwanted baby, also HIV positive and tell her she has to have the baby? I am sure a baby born HIV positive has a great life. Or how about babies who put mothers at high risk due to toxicity and stuff like that and the mother doesn't want to die quite yet in her life and wants to have an abortion. Or how about if 2 or 3 months into a pregnancy it is obvious a fetus is abnormal. Maybe only one arm, or no legs, and the parents feel it would be better to abort the baby then have the baby face a life of riddcule. You think all of that is okay? You're priorities are out of whack. You take care of the living and present before you worry about those coming.

So people saying people who were raped should bite the bullet and give birth to a baby which might be carrying AIDs holds water?

 

I think people who are against abortion should have to go to women who were raped and now impregnanted and tell them that they have to bite the bullet and have the baby because god says so.

 

I would have no problem going before anyone against abortion and tell them that it is right and the woman's choice.

It's got nothing to with religion to me. Liberals like you who make these ridiculous stereotypes are going to be faced with quite a rude awakening when you get out of your little liberal college and group of friends.

 

Anyway, I'll tell the woman that the only reason that the status of this "right" is an issue is because the left made it so to gain votes, they do not care about the principles. It's just a sure fire way to gain votes from a convincable demographic.

 

First feminists, now it's becoming gays.

 

Well you know what, many women aren't convinced.

 

And plenty of gays aren't either.

You're right since I am a registered republican that makes me a liberal. :plain

 

Just because I didn't vote for someone and an administration who lied to me makes me a liberal, yup no doubt about it, uh huh. I love having to repeat myself about 1,000 times. I happend to like Kerry and not Bush. Maybe it had something to do most of my family is from Massachusetts and because Bush is just a dope, so what? Like I have said before in '08 I will probably be voting Gulliani or Ahhhnold, I see how that makes me a liberal.

 

I know I am no extremeist conservative, I consider myself a moderate, just lean to the right. But when it comes down to abortion and gay rights in particular I have very liberal standpoints on those things, because of my life and how things were. So you attacking liberals doesn't matter to me, because outside of those two issues I am rather conservative. I am very much a fiscal conservative, as well as when it comes to international affairs.

 

Anyway back on topic. Someone who is against abortion and wants it outlawed tell me you would go to women who were raped and tell me you would be able to tell them they HAVE to have that baby. Because I would have no problem with going up to people who are against abortions and tell them why their thoughts on it are misguided.

 

If you take the judgement away from women you are saying they don't know what is the best for their body and their life. And if they don't know what is the best for themselves, why in the world do we even let them leave the house? Maybe you all don't think women should leave the house because you obviously don't think they know what is the best for themselves. If that is what you think say it, fess up. I am sure a lot of women would respect that viewpoint.
