That's fine. We'll all have to account for our actions someday. When do YOU believe life begins?
Your going on the base of conception, I go along the base that of if it can live outside the womb or not. I am not pro-abortion. I am pro-choice, but I do not believe in partial birth abortions. Period. But I am not going to let you bully me for my opinion, and your comments are not going to change my point of view or make me feel guilty. I respect yours, please respect mine. And No, it is not like a 4 year old kid. It is not outside of the womb. It may have seperate DNA, but can it live outside the womb during the first trimester? I think not.
Where is the baby's right to choose?
Well, that goes back to when is it a life.. so there will always be differing opinions about that. Already expressed my view, not going to reexplain...
I don't choose who is right and wrong. The Word of God determines this. God. Take it up with Him if you don't like it. I sense he won't agree with your relative rule of what's right and what's wrong.
Is right always right and wrong always wrong? Is it decided by majority? What compass do you use that doesn't change with time?
Your going based on " the word of god". Your going on religious beliefs, not proven fact. Prove it to me, beyond the bible, then maybe I will consider what you have to say. Right is right, wrong is wrong, but remember it differs depending on culture. They have honor killing in Middle East, killing a girl if it even looks like she is being "immoral", which in that culture means that just talking to a male can do that to you. They see this as a honorable thing to do, yet I would assume, the "majority" of this country would find that intolerable. So yeah, majority may rule, but right and wrong are based on cultural values. It is not cut and dried. Your view on right and wrong is not one that everyone shares. Oh, and good and evil.. goes along the same concept. I believe in a higher power, and I believe that he gave is free will, so I will deal with my actions when it comes to him, just as everyone else. Compasses change with time yes, but that doesn't mean that someone's "moral compass" is going to go in your direction.
How do you know this? I think you assume too much.
I choose to believe this because your pushing your point of view about choosing adoption, not abortion. Unless your a person who says something and does the other, then I would assume that you would never had, or let your girl, wife, whatever , have one.
When it comes to the adoption thing.... My house is full of people who spend the holidays who do not have family, because no one wanted to adopt them. Foster kids who are now 18, 20, to 25, that were told they were TOO OLD when they went into the foster care system, to be able to find homes. So yeah, you may have that experience, but mine has shown people to be a bit different.
yes, you can try. And no, they are not women. Alot of the females that have abortions maybe legally an adult, but that does not make them make adult decisions. Doesn't mean that they are mature. But not all women use it as form of birth control. I am very very careful, and yet it could still happen to me. DO we really want to get into this. I am 25 year old woman, who never wants to bear children, and takes every possible precaution to not get pregnant, yet I am not allowed to make the choice to have my tubes tied..Here in Tx, it is very difficult for a woman with no kids to get that. So I will be damned if someone is going to tell me that I cannot fix the problem permanently, and that then tell me that I am wrong to not have it if I do. Accidents happen, people are raped, condoms break, and medications sometimes don't work under duress. I would say 90 of the women who have them, don't make a snap decision about it. They think long and hard about the decision that doing, and why, and what for. They aren't just concerned about themselves, but they take into account how it is going to affect their family, ect.[stock][/stock]
