I'm ok with rape survivers using that method versus an abortion if that's the route that they wish to take.

WHY do you think that human nature will change because YOU say it should?


Abortion used to be illegal and abortions were still performed.
Did you REALLY think abortion started when Roe v. Wade was passed ...!!!

What are you talking about? You're making less sense than usual.

Life doesn't begin until the fetus is viable outside the body. Before 21 weeks, it isn't viable.
One could make a solid argument that it's not viable then either, as it would take heroic means to make it survive.

I don't hate sex. I personally feel that sex should remain between a married couple but I don't care what you do in your own bedroom. All I care about is the innocent life that is terminated because two horny folks could not keep their clothes on.

Maybe the number would be lowered... but I don't think you're considering the number of women that die as a result... women died from illegal abortions. Especially women who could not afford to go to another country to have the procedure performed. So in my opinion, you're punishing the most defenseless women in our country.

Bottom line, I still think it's a woman's choice and the effort should be put forth to avoid the situation. Not to sound like a broken record... but that means education, counseling and trust.

Making it illegal isn't a solution, rather, it almost seems like revenge or retribution for the lady not acting the way you think they should. Payback if you will.

I remember when they were illegal and it wasn't good. It's better now but definitely could be improved upon.

It is NOT just "her body" for which she is making "her choice." She is deliberately and knowingly choosing death for another human being. Now you can cynically dress it up in all the politically correct verbage that you can use to obscure the simple fact that not one single human being ever came into this world without passing through this stage of human development and there is nothing else that the unborn can possibly be other than human. So keep saying your cute little slogans, keep pretending that selfishness is the new way to prove you're a strong woman. But if you think that women have taken a huge step towards equality by proving that they can care no more about the life of their child then they would about throwing away a used tissue then heaven help us all.
