Abortion should be outlawed

Hi righty10294, This has been a touchy subject around here, lately. So, i ask that we keep this debate formal, and not let it get out of hand. 1)"Abortion should be outlawed. It is just disgusting how a women can kill their offspring just because she had "sexy time" wrong. I don't want to hear the argument, "what if she got raped." If she did get raped she should have the baby and the raped pay all losses to the women. Now when she has the baby, alls you have to do is to bring it to a orphanage or a firehouse. How much can that cost you, if you bring it there on the way home from the hospital."-righty So, its disgusting how a woman can kill her offspring. I'm taking it that you are against condoms and birth control then? When you use a condom you are actually trapping half of a future child in a latex "glove". And eventually killing it. Birth control, prevents ovulation, or the producing of eggs.Im wondering how much you know about the process of child bearing. Abortions are (mostly) done in the first trimester (before the 12th week of pregnancy). When the child is still, what some call a blob, and not much of a child. http://www.pregnancy.org... This site provides a week by week analysis of the "baby" in the womb. As you can see the fetus does not resemble a human at all, until week seven. So, if an abortion is done, before this time, is it ok? I do find it interesting that you are against the idea of abortion even if a woman got raped. Tell me, say you're married. And your wife comes home one day, and tells you that she was raped. A few weeks later you find out she's pregnant, but not with your child. Are you going to sentence your wife to carry a "bastard" child for nine months.Everytime the child "kicks" she remembers that moment when she was forced to have sex. Everytime she has to go up in a size of clothing, she feels the emotions rush back to her. Your really going to sentence the woman you love to live nine months of hell, because she was forced to have sex,against her own will? 2)"Also, 1.2% of abortions are with girls who are 15 years oldo. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, that is the parents fault for the girl getting pregnant. They should've been paying attention to what she is doing, and who she is hanging around."-righty What do you advise the child to do? Continue with the bearing, ruining her body for, she has not yet fully developed, possibly bringing pyshicial conditions that worsen with age? Continue with the bearing, and forcing her to drop out of high school? 80% of pregnant teens are forced to drop out of school. 80%! These woman can never get a self supporting job, and can never have a successful future. Which is worse? Having the opportunity to be successful and it being stripped right from under your nose, or never having the opportunity at all? By not allowing the abortion you've just condemned not only the mother, but the too be child, to a life of poverty and sadness.

Then he should be fined the amount of money the women lost, so their is no need for abortion."-righty So, money solves everything? Money takes care of that physical pain that the man put her through, during the rape, child carrying, and birth? Money takes care of the emotional pain she was put through during rape, child caring, and birth? Money takes care of the chances of her family disowning her? What if the man doesn't have any money, or enough to pay for said crimes? What now? Some of the physical effects of rape. "http://www.healthyplace.com...; Money takes care of that too? Abortion is not the taking of a child, its not the taking of a life. Its the taking of what WOULD BECOME a life. What harm is there in preventing life? People do it everyday with condoms and birth control.
