Abortion is morally wrong

I'm sorry for my late response. The first statement you made just contradicted your whole argument. Just because there is no proof that a fetus is a human being means that we should kill it? Ok, what if a research is conducted and we find out that a fetus is a human being, that means that America has been killing about a million human beings every year. That's mass infanticide at its greatest. By the way, the fact that a fetus grow into the humans that we see today is fact that it is a human being. There is no other thing in the entire world that can grow into a human being. A fetus is different from a sperm or an egg because instead of just having the potential to have life, it is already life because it can grow and feed (which are characteristics of all living things). A sperm and egg cannot grow. Just because something has the "potential" of becoming something, doesn't mean that it will become that thing. For example, you have the "potential" to get a million dollars the next second but that doesn't mean that you would. "Asking when a fetus becomes a baby will always invoke an emotional response." Exactly what I'm looking for! An emotion! Whether you like it or not, everything we do in life has to do with our emotion. Why do you go to college? Because you want to get a good job that you love which makes you happy. You want to succeed because it makes you happy. Everything we do involves emotion. If we remove emotion from important subjects, we do not make good decisions. Giving a woman the right to choose isn't the same as giving a woman the right to take a life. Just because she is the mother doesn't give her the right to kill her child just because she can't take care of it ( that's the major reason why women commit abortion). As a woman, I know very well the importance of women's rights, but like I said earlier, there are limits to rights. That's why you try to save a suicidal person if he tries to kill himself, despite the fact that he has full right to his body. That's the same with women and pregnancy. Giving a woman the right to her own body, doesn't give her the right to hurt a part of her body, or the life growing h=in her body. "Why should a woman, who may have had an accidental pregnancy due to a broken condom, be forced to have the baby? Put yourself in her shoes." Why are you using emotional tactics now Con? I thought you were against that. I'm an advocate for abstinence till marriage, that's why even if that happens, I would give birth to the child because the child would be in a stable family. But if I indulge myself in sexual experiences before I get married and get pregnant due t a broken condom, then I would still give birth to the child and I encourage women to do the same. Why? Children are blessings. Simple. If you are not able to take care of a child, then you shouldn't be having sex then, knowing the consequences of a wrong move. But even if I know the consequences and still indulge, I would put the child up for adoption. There are a lot of couples struggling with infertility or just want another child. I agree that contraception can help improve infant mortality rates by preventing pregnancies for occurring, but I don't understand how killing already living children reduces infant mortality rates. In fact, it does the opposite. Remember, you still haven't given a clear answer to when a fetus becomes a baby. " The child in that example would be both the rapist"s and the victim"s, of course. I wonder what the child would think, to know that they have been born into such a family, or lack thereof. Not to mention how the mother feels about that. I think to condemn them to such an eventuality is positively wicked, don"t you?" You said that the child is the rapist's and the victim's right? I agree, BIOLOGICALLY. Being a father isn't about making a woman pregnant, it has to do with the process of raising that child and being emotionally available for you child. What of the child? Since you always tell me to put myself in the shoes of others, let me tell you to do that too. As for the child, if you can't love him or her, put him up for adoption instead of killing them because abortion isn't a one day experience. Pro-choice isn't the same thing as pro-abortion. They are two different things all together. I'm pro-choice too because I believe in our right to choose things THAT AFFECT OURSELVES ONLY. Pro-abortion isn't pro-choice because you are removing the rights of the fetus or baby to live. Abortion doesn't take the child into consideration, it just takes the parent's into consideration whether they are willing to accommodate this "burden" into their planned out lives. Contrary to popular opinion, I'm not against giving a family a choice on when or whether they want to raise a child, I'm just against the killing of innocent children that are already alive. I also care about children that's why I advocate their rights to life like any human being should. Abortion is not just something that happens in just one day and it is over. During pregnancy, the body changes. A lot of hormones are released and the woman sees "baby" everywhere. Immediately after abortion, these changes immediately stop. That can be traumatic. Abortion takes the life of innocent children whether we like it or not. More than 90% of abortions are used as a form of birth control. That's just cruel, killing a child just because he or she would "inconvenience" you. A unborn child has the right to life, and taking that right away without consent is a crime.
