1) Get that cheap hit thread... :later:

2) To compare slavery to abortion is just stupid...they are completely different issues... :awkney:

3) I don't agree that abortion is the right of a mother...its murder no matter what anyone tells me because thats a human growing inside you...it's innocent in whatever "accident" or rape happened to you...the child doesn't deserve to be terminated because of that. The only reason a mother should THINK of terminating her child is if it's a complication that may kill her if the fetus is growing in the wrong place

4) I already know my beliefs are in the minority and I'm proud of that! I will not be responding to any negative comments so dont bother... :bye:

The thing is, people be can pro-life for their own circumstances and that is completely okay. But to expect an entire population to conform to those views is ridiculous. If abortion were to be illegal, it's not going to stop abortion. It's going to give rise to botched abortions, causing even more deaths and/or serious outcomes for the mother and foetus. It abortions were illegal, the strain on the welfare system would go beyond its limits, and the child welfare system would also be strained of its resources. Tell me, what are the odds of someone adopting a child with severe disabilities compared with a child with no abnormalities? It's selfish to expect someone to raise a child despite financial difficulties, an ill mental/emotional/social capacity to raise a child and it's selfish to expect a woman to endure pregnancy just to give it away because of a mere lack of choice

All these male politicians literally have no idea of the female anatomy or the needs of females in general. Are they aware that fertilised eggs sometimes don't hold onto the uterine wall - passing through the woman as a normal period despite being fertilised - are they gonna hold a woman's body responsible for that potential life being wasted? They might argue that that situation is beyond the control of the woman - whose to say emotional and financial stability is able to be totally controlled by the woman?

At the end of the day, if a woman is not ready to have a child, does not have the resources to raise a child, or has health risks posed on her and the child by enduring pregnancy/childbirth or does not want a child - that woman should have the choice to terminate that pregnancy.

We are not just pawns that the government gets to control, and they very well do not have the right to determine what does and does not live inside me and depend on me for 40 weeks.

Women deserve a choice.

I didn't know fetus was spelled different in the UK. "Foetus" caught my attention.

Well, I learned something new today. 

Australia* we spell it both ways

I've just 'unfriended' a person on Facebook who was criticising women who get an abortion. It infuriates me when I see people oppose pro choice, especially young people who I expect to be open minded about this sensitive issue. I support the view that a woman should have the legal right to an elective abortion.

Secondly, "during slavery, a lot of the slave owners thought that they had the right to do whatever they wanted to that slave." Yet he believes he has the right to tell women what they can and can't do with their bodies?  

No, he believes they have the right to do what they want with their bodies. Just not with their fetus' bodies. :emma:

First off, disgusting. 

Secondly, "during slavery, a lot of the slave owners thought that they had the right to do whatever they wanted to that slave." Yet he believes he has the right to tell women what they can and can't do with their bodies?  

I think his point is that a fetus is not a woman's body, but the independent entity. Woman can decide about herself, but when she she is pregnant, it's not only about her anymore, but also about the baby. At least this is how I understood it,

i really wish politicians, particularly men, would stop trying to tell women what to do with their bodies. it's fine if people believe life begins at conception and dont like abortions. but not everyone, like me believes that. let women make their own choice.

i dont like abortion. Why should they only be considered lives after they leave the womb? Whats the difference?

Is it ok to abort a 1-day old zygote? The religious people would say "NO! Because life start at conception and only God decide you should live/die."

How about aborting a 9-10 days old blastocysts? How about the embryos from day 11 to 60?

To the anti-abortion religious people, each month 18% of fertilized eggs don't get implanted onto the uterus. So by God's nature, 18% of human lives and souls are destroyed naturally each month. So it's natural for the zygotes to get flushed out so don't condemn abortion up to 1 month.

Check out this article on flushed zygotes.

I'm cool with everyone that is against abortion. Personally, you can do what ever you want or think is right. But to tell other women what they have to do with their body or their child is just wrong. 

People can think that the women is a sinner and a bad person if she has an abortion but they should never have the right to decide on her behalf.

One of my close relatives underwent an abortion because she didn't want to have another child and I totally support this. It is HER choice.

1) A child isn't a fetus

2) You can't abort anything over 12 weeks (3 months)

3) Stop using this image in your head as if the fetus is something that can walk and talk - it's basically a vegetable - it has no feeling or thought
