I was an "unwanted" child who despite all the odds against me was adopted into a loving home. Why is it better to kill babies versus giving them a chance at life?

You really need to stop being the forum drama queen.

Your true colors are showing.
No .. it is NOT ok to kill an unborn baby but I won't tell a rape victim that she has to carry the rapist baby to term.

How did /does the "innocent life" change in those two instances.
She never could answer.....resorted to "you're too emotional" instead of a real answer...
Ok ... Tell you what. Since you pro-choicers want to attack us pro-lifers for making concessions in the event of rape, I think we should change our tune then to allowing NO exceptions for abortions except if the life of the mother is in jeopardy (as I doubt the baby has a chance of survival at that point). When abortion become illegal, then rape victims should carry the innocent baby to term. No concessions for you pro-choicers for rape victims.
Sounds like a difficult situation you found yourself in and I can sympathize somewhat. My biological mother's story was much more heartbreaking and yet she found the courage to carry me to term and place me up for adoption. I really don't want to get into the circumstances as it is way too personal but I'm sure many of you ardent pro-choicers on here would have advised her to get an abortion had they known her circumstances. I'm grateful that she did not opt for that choice or else many lives would not have been touched by my life. It takes a courageous woman to choose life for the child they are carrying despite difficult obstacles and hardships.
And you couldn't be more wrong with the underlined statement. I have never and WILL never "advise" anyone to get an abortion. But I will support the decision of any woman who thinks she needs one. As I would support the decision of any woman who chose to carry to term and give the child up for adoption. My whole point is that it is her decision to make, not anyone else's.

It doesn't change my opinion one bit on abortion. Until we create artificial wombs or a good way to remove the fetus from the womb without killing it, and putting it into another womb, then abortion is the only way to solve unwanted pregnancy. There are no other alternatives.
What about adoption? There are many infertile couples that desire to adopt babies.
No .. it is NOT ok to kill an unborn baby but I won't tell a rape victim that she has to carry the rapist baby to term.
Do you read what you post? You say it is not OK to "kill an unborn baby" and then say it is OK to kill an unborn baby that is the result of a rape. Which is it - OK or not OK?
What about adoption? There are many infertile couples that desire to adopt babies.
There are many women who choose adoption. There are many women who choose abortion. There are many women who choose to keep their babies. That's what it's all about - CHOICE.
Ok ... Tell you what. Since you pro-choicers want to attack"""
Attack? I asked questons...very telling...

Well, it WOULD make you look more ...er...logical.
And , yes , Your Highness, when you pass your ruling against women's choice I'm sure in your great wisdom amd arrogance you will outlaw abortion for any reason....and it'll be all my fault ..LOL!
