and self-control can be used to prevent unwanted pregnancy.

I don't mean to insult you, but seriously, that was some terrible logic and reasoning.
I do not think that anyone does an abortion with a lite heart anyway? You really can not blame anyone without knowing the exact circumstances.

Don't take my comment so hard. I just think you have an uber narrow, judgmental, fanatical, and juvenile opinion on abortion. Don't make you a bad person.

EDIT: Exactly what friends would the majority, cough* majority be losing? We are all pro-choice remember.....

I've yet to hear an even slightly persuasive argument as to why people shouldn't be allowed to have abortions.

Maybe I'm too young to be throwing my two cents in here, but I'm in the age range who are most affected by this decision. It all depends on one thing: At what point does the baby become its own human being? If you believe the answer is upon birth, then abortion is fine. If, however, you believe the baby becomes its own human being at some point before birth, it is wrong.
Having said that, I'm pro-life. Simply because I came very close to being aborted, and however rough the early years were, I'm still glad I'm alive. So is my mother.

One thing all of our mothers have in common is that they gave birth to children who now have access to computers and are able to type. Yay for life.

edit: I forgot to say... Belay all Judeo-Christian values regarding human life. They will certainly kill all of we Earth surface dwellers sooner than later.

I think the most important thing is as was mentioned by ladyislingering. By being pro-life, you're saying a woman's body is more valuable as a ****in incubation chamber than she is as a person. Her choice doesn't matter, because her body only matters as per it's ability to give birth. And the scientific experiment inside her body that's not even fully formed, or capable of rational thought, or truly human-like in any way, is considered more valuable than her enjoyment of life.

And that makes you a bad ****in person. Seriously, shame on you, pro-lifers.

Honestly, I don't even care when the thing is considered a person. If it can't live outside the womb, terminating it isn't murder, it's surgery to remove a parasite before it gets worse.

Does anyone think the father should have a say in the decision? Haven't seen that mentioned yet.

If you can abort it then it's not a person. If it's not a person then I guess it's technically property until it develops into one. And since it's inhabiting the woman it stands to reason that it's her property. So no. He shouldn't.
