A relative is mine is adpoted, his mother didn't bear him but she is still his mother. Raising a child makes you a mother or father, in my books anyways.
H. Godwinson, women that use abortion as a form of contraceptive are irresponsible amazinhunks in my books. But, just because they are amazinhunks doesn't mean they should have their rights taken away.
Thrawn, but I do wonder how you can relate a fetus to a tumor.
A tumour is a biological growth that your body produces, as is a fetus. That's my comparison. I'm not saying anything more then that. It's just a comparison.
who's talking about rights, anyway?
I thought women's rights versus fetus's rights was what the pro-life, pro-choice arguement was about.
And... do you think the right to life supercedes the rights of the mother.
Difficult to saying anything about this with out knowing exactly what you mean by "right to life".
It's a moral choice to be sure, and I have to be comfortable with the choice I make within my own set of morals.
That's exactly what it is. I haven't heard any arguement as to why pro-life people believe that a human being is a human being at conception though.
As for the death penalty the only arguement that is defendable is that it's societie's revenge pure and simple. No has yet proven that it is an effective deterrant, and the economic arrguement works against captial punishment. And I think a society that kills it's own citizens is barbaric.
If you are going to have an abortion that is the choice you make. I can say it isn't the choice I'd make, and that's all.
That's a pro-choice standpoint, not a pro-life one. The pro-choice has room for women who are against abortion, if they are against it then they don't have to have one.
