Even if we to agree the foetus was a living being, it does not mean it has right above the Mother or society.
If the foetus was a living being, then we are comparing the LIFE of a living being with the economic position of another. Ofcourse the former should be above the latter! A life (or potential life) is priceless. Btw. I am NOT religious. I dont think abortion is wrong because Jesus or Allah said it was. Im just applying common sense here.Comrade nathan said:Even if we to agree the foetus was a living being, it does not mean it has right above the Mother or society.
See. "If" the foetus was a living being. Your argument therefore is inherently flawed. The foetus depends on the mother for life, why should it be put before her well being? Both physically, mentally, financially, etc, etc.musik_junky said:If the foetus was a living being, then we are comparing the LIFE of a living being with the economic position of another.

I answered this already! As for the "IF", even if it isn't a living being, it is a potential life. According to the law it is a living thing anyway.katie_tully said:The foetus depends on the mother for life, why should it be put before her well being?
I don't even know where to begin with you. Perhaps I'm wasting my time.stacey** said:i think abortion is completely wrong, you are killing a live human!! its murder!! but the laws are there and no everyone has the same opinion as me so i doubt they will be changed, but people should seriously be more careful. carelessness is not an excuse for ending someones life.
The current Catholic Health minister refuses to allow the RU 486 drug. A safer, cleaner, non surgical drug for early term abortions. Allmost everyother country in the western world allows it.AlleyCat said:that being said i once saw a video of an acid-burned foetus crying and it shook me to the core. i would now think long and hard before making the decision to abort or keep the child.
Normally quite a rational person? You're nothing more than a fucking disgrace (and that's about as polite as I could possibly be at the moment, I'm afraid ).Serius said:Iam usually a rational person. I tend not to overeact or act emotionally...probably something to do with how i was raised. But the truth is that if some bitch decided to abort a child that is both mine and hers... I would honnestly kill her in cold blood. I am usually a pretty empathic person, but i would have a lot of difficulty seeing past the obvious issue of " omfg! she just had my baby killed!". Just the loss of the future experiences with the baby and the opertunities it could have had at a good life would drive me over the edge.
It isnt right to kill a baby without a damned good excuse. accidents dont happen. Iam not one of those conservative Christians who beleive sex is only for your wife... but i do think that if you arent emotionally stable enough to have a baby should an "accident"happen... then you shouldnt be opening your legs like a damned whore.
He makes for an entertaining disgrace, no?Generator said:Normally quite a rational person? You're nothing more than a fucking disgrace (and that's about as polite as I could possibly be at the moment, I'm afraid ).

Education for safe sex? OR education along the lines of abstinence?nwatts said:Education is the key.
What is wrong with the current sex education scheme?nwatts said:Both. Extending; education as to alternatives to abortion as well. Namely, financial education.
Depending on how it's regulated that could lead to problems with people who want to abort their partner's pregnancy without her consent or whatever.erawamai said:The current Catholic Health minister refuses to allow the RU 486 drug.

Perhaps one reason not to vote for the Liberal government. Safter non surgical abortions are not in their interest.
