I am saying that when people do have sex, that they should be willing and able to care for a baby that may result from their actions - in short, to be responsible.

This is the foundation of why people should wait for marriage before being sexually active.

Married persons are generally better prepared to raise a child than single persons - and marriage is the foundation of the family.

More people killed by abortion than all the wars America has ever been in. Innocent babies whose only crime was to be conceived.

Was the personal enough for you?
And I respect your personal take on abortion......and I respect your right to never avail yourself of an abortion.....even if it is needed to save your life.

If you were pregnant and the doctor said he can only save you or the fetus.....how would you feel if I got to make that decision instead of you.....according to what I think is the right thing to do.....no matter what you think?

Now.....why can't you respect my decision if I decide I do not want to put my body through a pregnancy and the damage it will cause.....why can't you repsect my decision that I do not want to give birth?

Roe v Wade respects your decision to never have an abortion.

How about you respect other's decisions just as they are respecting yours?

The only responsibility and legal right you have, is to your own private parts. Not to mine. So keep your nose in your own private parts. And while we're at it, I'm not fond of you proselytizing me with your religious beliefs, so if you don't mind, take your religion to someone who won't mind. I mind very much. It disgusts me when people try to con me with their religious beliefs and bs.

Show me where I ever mentioned religion?

I am pro-life for moral reasons.

Quite frankly, I have never heard a religious argument for being pro-life.

Have you?

I believe Medicaid is funded by tax dollars. Take care of your chi-chis on your own dime.

You're proselytizing your religious beliefs to me about your b*llsh*t that a bunch of cells is a formed human being, and I am not amused by your proselytizing of me. Keep your church to yourself. I don't care a rat's ***** if you believe that a bunch of grouped cells are Santa Claus with a red and white cap, getting it on with Mrs. Santa. Stay out of my face and my body, and stop pushing your religious b*llsh*t on me.

Once again - where did I ever mention religion - let alone a church?

So what about teenagers? Although it's nice in theory, in practicality it doesn't work so well. Today you need more education and experience before you can afford a kid when compared to 100 years ago. Without abortion we will need public funding one way or another.

Disabled children "need" SSDI, poor children need public services and pose a higher potential criminal risk, or we would need services that help people get into a position where they are able to take care of children.

If you don't like the way things are done here, feel free to move elsewhere. I can google some flights for you. In fact, I'm d*mned good at making flight arrangements. May I suggest Somalia. Excellent country - no Medicaid and almost no govt, in case you're one of those, "there's too much government" nutjobs.

No, it isn't.

When I want a snack....I might go get an apple to munch on......I certainly am not going to go get an apple seed to munch on.
