Well, I think if someone is a militant ateist, he does basically the same thing those fundamentalists are doing. And I would consider myself as an agnostic cos I have been religious when I was younger but then I just, you know, forget it and now it does not seems to be important for me.
One of those reasons is that I could not stand their opinions about homosexuals and abort or pre-marriage sex. |
So for me it does not matter if religious people don't like these things but their rules shouldn't affect the laws or the society

Yeah, people are trying to get intelligent design taught in schools, so perhaps we should pick our battles. |
I'm pro-choicer because I feel that a woman should be able to make her own decisions on what she wants done. Abortion is a very unfortunate thing, but it shouldn't be the governments job to tell a woman if she can do something or not.

I'm pretty sure rape IS evil. On the contrary, they are downplaying rape and trying to make aborting the resulting pregnancy evil. |
I'm so glad I'm leaving this ****ty state.

I signed that petition earlier, funnily enough. Had to use a fake zip code though, since it didn't seem to like my UK postcode.

Why does this have to be one or the other. Different circumstances define different solutions.

Abortion is not as simple an issue as yes or no. I'm vehemently opposed to abortion, but even I understand that there are circumstances where it may be appropriate, such as rape.
|
^ No it really is that simple! Personal choice... That is it.. And it isn't really anybody business to to say otherwise... The audacity it take to presume to know what is going on inside a woman's body, mind, and heart is absolutely astounding to me... There are so many factors that come into play when you first find out you are someone's mother that it is impossible for others who are not carrying the baby in question to judge... I am pro choice... And speaking from experience... Abortion was not my choice... But adoption was... I am not better then the woman that chose to abort... I followed my heart... In someways I almost think it is easier to abort... Then to live your life knowing that one day you might have to answer the door and explain that it wasn't that, " I didn't love you it's that I loved you more than I loved myself..And you deserved better then what I could give you at that time in my life..." I have been working on this speech for 6 years...

I just don't think any person has the right to decide whether an unborn human being lives or dies. In the United States, I don't think the Supreme Court made the right decision interpreting the law to say that a woman has the right to her body, and therefore has the right to terminate her pregnancy. The result of that case was inferred from a law, and 3 current Supreme Court Justices feel it was 110% the wrong decision, including the Chief Justice John Roberts, and still a few more are uncertain about the issue. I studied political science research methods in college, and I've seen the polls done by the National Election Survey, and there are dozens of questions about abortion, and none of them are yes or no questions. This is fact. There is a great divide among US citizens about abortion. The answers to "stance on: abortion" are always on a scale with four options: "Completely against abortion in all circumstances." "Against abortion unless the mother's life is threatened." "Against abortion unless in the case of rape, the mother's life is threatened, etc..." "Favor a woman's right to choose." (and then there's "Uncertain") I've also seen some polls that have more than that. |
First off, I am not sorry, because it was the greatest thing I have ever done...
Also the hardest...Being Pro Life is really fine and dandy, ( Honestly...It's humane) And its easy to say give the baby up for adoption. ...But until you carry someone with you and have a completely symbiotic relationship with them. You will never know the other side of that coin, which comes complete feelings , of depression , add postpartum depression, on top of regular depression, mix in feelings of being the worst mother ever, and top it off with thoughts of suicide and you have a dangerous cocktail.. Then there is raise the baby you made it philosophy. .Really. ...Growin up neglected is proven to be psychologically worse then being beaten, or over protected....I would rather hear that women , who know it wasn't for them for whatever reason, decided to abort then give birth to, and neglect a child...A CHILD not a zygote. ... Both abortion and adoption are hard things to get over...But really it is a black and white choice for the woman...Do I do it or not....I am not talking outside influences I am talking instinct. ..Instinct told me no thank you not my style. ..But I am hard wired that way other women however are not...And the freedom to choose their path through life is their right. No matter how much you disagree with it ultimately ask yourself are you planning on raising , loving, and providing, for the baby that is about to be aborted. ..No? oh ok.. |

As far as me contradicting myself with the whole Roe v. Wade thing, what I really meant to say was that I think the SCOTUS should make abortion illegal in all circumstances except in extreme cases where the mother's life is threatened or something like that (I'm going to be honest though, I don't know how the application of that would work in real life.) Sorry for the confusion, this issue is obviously complicated. Quote:
Unless you as a mother are in perilous danger by having the child, I don't care what your frame of mind is. And who's going to say that an aborted child would not have grown up and found a cure for AIDS or for cancer? I know there's a flip-side for that situation, but in reality, we're not all murders and most people are good. |

For sure, it's a complicated and heated issue. But, the problem with making abortions illegal is that women who want abortions are going to seek out unsafe, back alley kind of procedures like what happens in poor Third World countries or other countries where they are illegal. The risks of infection and death for the woman would be unbelievably high, and there could be a chance that the person performing the procedure could catch something from the patient if they can't use the proper equipment. Also there will always be doctors or nurses willing to perform abortions under the table, away from the prying eyes of the authorities, like in "The Cider House Rules". Now you have people risking their careers, reputations, and possibly their lives in order to give a woman what she wants. People can be as anti-abortion as they want, to whatever degree, but that is not going to make abortions go away. Making things illegal doesn't make them disappear, like hard drugs for example. Abortions are still going to be performed regardless of legal status, so why not offer a safe and sanitary environment instead of forcing women to go underground and find shady abortionists on the black market or something? How do you feel about birth control or sterilization procedures like tubal ligation, vasectomies, or even full hysterectomies? I always find many pro life people are strongly against these as well. |

Umm so you are saying that I have no say what goes on inside my body unless my life is in danger? You're kidding right? Well let me move off the operating table, so you can lay down... Should I come to you and consult you every time I need something looked at, fixed, or taken care of?? I would hope your answer is no of course not... If that is the case then why should I ask your opinion on abortion... I don't know the child would cure some veritable bevy of diseases but you don't know that they will... They could grow up to become Ted Bundy 2.0, or Xan Zul the soul destroyer... One simply never knows... Other peoples actions in the most private of circumstances, is frankly none of your goddamn business... That is a very very personal thing you sticking your moral nose in.. Morals my friend are personal, tailored to the wearer, not the sales man... You feel me? Meaning, my morals are mine, and just because you are trying to sell me on the fact that I am killing a child, doesn't make it gospel...Your stance, no matter how flowery, hopeful, and bright, won't change the reality of my circumstance, if it is a severe one.. I told you I am pro choice, but it wasn't my choice to abort. I chose to adopt my daughter out.. And I would do it again in a heart beat and nothing will ever change that... But, I can't in good conscience, take away another woman's right to the same choice I had... That is a personal thing again I can't stress that enough, and it needs to be treated delicately, with reverence, and deep compilation... And the only person that can do all that is the potential mother... |
In a perfect world, every abortion would come with a complimentary tubectomy.

I'm personally against it but pro-choice at the same time.
It'll never happen to me unless I wanted it to, so I don't really care. |
