Abortion should be legal

Thank you very much chiinchillin for your time and energy on your argument. I appreciate all of your efforts in this debate. This process as you describe it is very important to a child's development. If a pregnant woman, (AKA. MOTHER) loves and cherishes her baby she will take care of her body when she is pregnant. Everything that mother does can impact that child's life. Why should we discourage mothers from drinking alcohol, smoking, drinking caffeine, or from doing drugs? Why is it important for mothers to stay away from chemicals, or to have children before 35? It is because when we love our children we cherish their right to have healthy and happy lives! Even if the mother has to make changes in her lifestyle or undergo difficulties. It is our responsibility. So we can not think that killing our baby is morally, ethically, and lawfully right. To prove that it is ethically wrong consider this quote by Ronald Reagon "I've noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born." This observation is clearly irrefutable, so nobody who has been granted life should take the side of death. Only life can give life. Life can not come from death. At this point let us change the question from when human life begins, but instead consider 'What is the value of human life? "The abortionist who reassembles the arms and legs of a tiny baby to make sure all of its parts have been torn from its mother's body can hardly doubt whether it is a human being. The real question for him and for all of us is whether that tiny human life has a God-given right to be protected by the law - the same right we have." https://patriotpost.us... The value of life has dropped along with the lack of good judgement which has resulted from the sexual liberation that focuses on terms of rights, or individual desires""what I want, what I may pursue", while it destroys the common good, by undermining families and rotting whole neighborhoods from within, but none of this seems to matter. What results is children growing up without fathers or mothers, of the incidence of venereal diseases, of births out of wedlock, of delinquency and crime. Ignoring our principles has destroyed the fabric of our community, selfishness has guided our decisions, those who are most powerful get their way! The greatest example of these crimes is ABORTION. "We cannot diminish the value of one category of human life - the unborn - without diminishing the value of all human life. http://www.bing.com...? Another cause of the lack of good judgement is that; Profit is usually more important than a conscience in the world we live in today, "Those who defend abortion, arguing that it is good and necessary for a healthy society, are defending an institution which is making them very wealthy. On the flip side, those who argue that abortion is an act of violence against an innocent human being, do so at great financial cost. There is no pay-off on the "pro-life" side. All the efforts to educate people about the reality of abortion consume large amounts of money, and there is no billion dollar product to refill the coffer. Think about it. Those who support abortion the most are growing rich off its continued availability while those who oppose abortion the most are losing money for their efforts. Who, then, is more likely to be honest and forthright about the issue at hand? Who is more likely to be motivated by principle and who is more likely to be motivated by profit?" My argument is not to point a finger, but to bring forth the facts and figures, which I invite anyone to critique from their own sources: $438 million is spent each year on first trimester abortions $393 million is spent on late term abortions. $337 million (or more) that Planned Parenthood (America's largest abortion provider) receives annually in government grants and contracts. By last count, Planned Parenthood (a tax-exempt organization!) has $951 million in total assets! http://www.abort73.com... I would hope that you chiinchillin will join this good fight to make abortion illegal, along with the many people who read this debate. If we can make abortion illegal we can "restore the rights that were taken from us." I would like to leave this round of the debate with a speech from Ronald Reagan 'We can not pretend that America is preserving her highest and most sacred ideal that each life is sacred.' "When we've permitted the deaths of 15 million Children who will never laugh, never sing, never experience the joy of human love, never strive to heal the sick, feed the poor, or make peace among the nations' 'These children are denied the first and most basic right of human life.'
