| Why I Can't Tolerate the Pro-Life
|
|
|
I cannot tolerate someone being pro-life (most of the time) for a few reasons. I bet that if you are pro-life at least one of these applies to you.
1.) Your belief takes away my right to the pursuit of my own happiness. Your belief that abortion should be made illegal takes away my rights and turns me into an incubator.
2.) You ignore cold hard facts and come up with your own emotional bullshit.
3.) You use lies to scare women into having children and disrespecting themselves by punishing themselves for their sexuality.
4.) You make an assumption that all women will love to be mothers if they carry the pregnancy to term.
5.) You also make the assumption that giving a child up for adoption isn't difficult or that carrying an unwanted pregnancy isn't a pain in the ass for the woman.
6.) Your attack on a woman’s sexuality. "She should have kept her legs closed." you make me sick.
7.) You take this embryo and say that it is more important than its mother.
I have no problem with those that are personally pro-life but allow women to make their own choice. Whether or not to have an abortion, keep the baby, or give the baby up for adoption is a woman’s choice and always should be. I am tired being told that I have to tolerate someone elses beliefs when they take away my rights.

The ultimate choice is weather or not to use a condom. If you make a bad choice, you should suffer the consequences, not the baby. Adoption is made for a reason. I do not believe that abortion should be illegal in cases of rape. I personally couldn't have an abortion no matter the circumstances. However, there are some situations where it should be ok. My cousin's girlfriend was 18 when she got prego and she was disabled. They told her either she or the baby would die. Obviously she had an abortion. Instances like this I believe it should be ok.

Because condoms always work, you are right. And women should be punished for their sexuality. Wow you opened my eyes. I am pro-life now.
NOT

heres the thing...i believe everyone is entitled to their own belifs and opinions. i personally would never have an abortion...however i in no way shape or form think that everyone should feel the same way about it as i do. I have a few friends as well as family members who have made the choice to abort a pregnancy for their own reasons. if you are not ready for a child, then why bring one into this world for it to suffer. granted, they shouldve taken extra precautions to prevent pregnancy...but nothing is 100%. to each their own...i understand the thinking of certain individuals against it...i was raised in church and this is something my families religion is against...however each person makes their own choices and whatever the choice may be, THEY are the ones who live with the decision they made. we are free to do what we want...and who are we as people to judge? i know im not god!

Oh so let's kill a baby because women can't protect themselves and can't be responsible. Got it. I have been having sex for 6 years and have not gotten pregnant. It's really not that hard.

1. Abortion takes the lives of approximately 1.5 million developing babies each year in the U.S. Half are females. Don't these females have the same constitutional "right" to control their bodies which pregnant women purportedly have?
2. Pro-choice is the same as pro-abortion. It legitimizes and condones it by supporting another's "right" to have or commit abortion. It's like claiming to be personally against child abuse, but in favor of the "right" to abuse a child.
3. The very word used to describe a baby developing in the womb implies that it is human; not just a blob. The Latin work "fetus" means "little child" or "young one." From the very moment of conception, the fetus contains all the genetic information that baby will have for the rest of his or her lifetime. A live human being -no matter how small-is formed at conception. Premeditated destruction of that live human being is legally defined as murder. Legalized murder is still murder.
4. Human beings shouldn't be discriminated against based on where they reside. A body part is defined by the common genetic code it shares with the rest of the body. An unborn baby's genetic code differs entirely from the mother's. It's not part of the woman's body. It only resides there.
5. In All About Issues magazine, Carol Everett, who ran 5 abortion clinics, admits she and her staff routinely lied to the pregnant girls who came to them. When asked if an abortion hurt, or was it a baby? they would say it didn't hurt and was only a blood clot. Even though these counselors saw 6 week old aborted babies with arms, legs, toes, and eyes closed like newborn puppies.
6.Pregnancy is a piece of cake compared to the aborted baby who had surgical scissors stuck in its skull and had her brains sucked out with a vacuum, was dismembered and thrown in a garabage can.
7. Adoption is always an alternative. Many U.S.parents are forced to go to Russia or China to adopt thanks to abortion. Whether a child is wanted or unwanted doesn't justify killing it. It cannot be determined with any degree of certainty which babies will be born to loving parents or abusive parents. A woman's who considers her child to be an inconvenience is not justified in killing the child.
8. Abortion is four times deadlier than childbirth and often results in inferlitity and breast cancer--referred to as the ABC link. Abortion is never safe for the babies-they always die.

I will respect your beliefs but #8 is too wrong to ignore! Abortion is much safer than childbirth.

1. I find it scary that you "pursuit of happiness" is dedicated to killing unborn children but whats even worse is YOU are denying the childs right to life, liberty, and his pursuit of happiness.
2. I don't know and don't care about your "cold hard facts," (okay I will give you that one) but if you think that emotional responses like say 95% of abortions are birth control, abortion is murder (since it does have all the qualifications for murder), and that it is used largly to kill off minorities and the poor aren't good arguments then I don't think you are as open minded as you think.
3. An esample of these lies would be...
4. I have never made that assumption but if I ever hear it I will relate your sympothies.
5. Nobody has ever said that but we must help these women to understand that the child can be raised by parents who are able to care for it.
6. I will give you this one too but just to make sure you throw up isn't it my fault if I eat too much and get fat, isn't my fault if I walk out in front of a moving train, isn't it my fault if I "forget" to pay my taxes. Mabey they should be responsible for thier own sexuality.
7. Niether is more important, which is why the mother doesn't have the right to kill it.

You make very good points. I never thought about point 4. It is an interesting way to look at it. The same goes with point 5. I don't think I have ever heard those points be raised before.

OK.
I was on birth control, condom broke, pill failed I got pregnant. I had my daughter, gave her up for adoption (I was 20 but would have been a horrible mother back then) and went through hell over that choice. I will NEVER tell someone that they have to do that. As for the men here judging..go away. It is very easy for you to say "carry a child for 9 months and then give it up" since YOU will never be faced with that choice.
I am pro-life for myself, but I am pro-choice for others. Now, there are other ways to abort a baby than going to a clinic. Do we REALLY want young girls who find themselves pregnant having to go back to those methods?
If abortion is made illegal again .. how do you prove you were molested? How do you prove it was rape and not consensual? Would you honestly force a woman to carry the baby of her rapist for 9 months and then the scars from that pregnancy (stretch marks etc) as a reminder for the rest of her life?
It seems to me people are too anxious to judge. Save it for women who use abortion regularly as a method of birth control.
