That's what you got out of her post? How about the fact that women have been seeking abortions since the beginning of time and making it illegal isn't going to change that. That, in my opinion, was the point of Zimbochick's post.
I'll give you an example of a so-called "inconvenient life." In the days before ultrasound I had a cousin who had a baby born without bones in his legs and they had to be amputated. When they thought about trying for a second child, they were told it was a million and one chance of that happening again. Guess what. It did. If that had happened in the post-ultrasound days and the parents had decided they couldn't deal with a second child with a major disability, what right does ANYONE have to tell them they can't abort? Decisions like that are heart-breaking and not taken lightly and they happen more often than you think.
Here we go again with the making of the extreme case to sanction the entire lot and the entire lot is reportedly over 60 million. That is astounding to me that a civilized society has sanctioned that kind of brutality. If that is evolution maybe we need to go back to the stone age. The fact is she does make a brilliant statement and thought I agree there should be exceptions, our medical advances cna tell us with reasonable certainty when those exceptions nee dto be made. Abortion should be outlawed as a form of birth control. That is all reasonable people are saying. Just like a drunk that runs over a pedestrian. If he wwon't wuit drinking take his license away or in this case reproductive rights. One time her fault, two times our fault, three times snipsnipsnip.
No Liberal, because humanity says so. We don't even need God to make that reasoned judgement. Again, I say to you, why not kill the mother and keep the child. The mother has already proven to be irresponsible, the child deserves a chance t do better.
Reading this thread is very strange. I hate siding with conservatives, heh.
Just the thought- a glimmering, distant thought as I don't even want kids- of literally scrambling the brains of my child because I basically determined that my life was tough enough, so tough sh** for the kid.
Utterly, utterly unthinkable. If I slip up sometime and get a fling pregnant, I'll play the "it's your choice" card till I find out what the choice is. If she wants the kids brains scrambled, she'll quickly realize the question was for show, and that there is no option.
Cheat on me? OK. Lie to me? Hey, part of human nature. Live a double life? Hurtful, but I can take it. Kill my kid because society says it's OK? If you do, you go with the child.
Macho man speaks!! Bottom line is, you have no say in the matter. Keep your pants zipped and get over yourself....
Why do you believe all life is precious? And it is a serious question, I am curious to know the answer from your perspective.
Fair question. I am a follower of Christ, I believe that life is a gift from God and the Bible says that he knew us before we were even formed in the womb and he knows how many hairs we have on our head. If God can love us so much, despite our awful, selfish ways, how good and great is he?

Whoa. Stop being so "pro life" here. Kill the mother. Whoa! I thought ALL life was sacred.
"prolifers" showing their true colors again!

I tried so many times to believe with true sincerity by even going to Church but I guess the good and great god does not care. He ain't there. God doesn't "love" me or anything. He ain't "good" or "great".
You speak truth; despite your intentional condescension.
