Abortion

You have some good feedback. Now here's mine. I will skip the Christian part because you do not have the same belief as me. Next point.Yes, a woman can get pregnant even if she does all the safety requirements and I'm not saying you shouldn't have sex unless it's for a baby. I'm saying that there is birth control for a reason that works 99% of the time. So the mother is irresponsible. If she can pay $1000 to get her baby killed, she can spend less than that to simply avoid a pregnancy. You say that there are millions "of unwanted babies who probably won't have very good lives since the amount of children put up for adoption is very low come into the world and suffer". Whoa. Where in the world did you come up with that? So many people are trying to adopt at the moment that there's a waiting line out the door. If there was so many "unwanted" babies, why on Earth would someone travel to different countries after waiting five years or more to receive a child and by the way, the trip costs thousands of dollars and this is not including the fees to adopt. I was adopted from China. If there were people who didn't want to adopt I would be in China right now and Steve Jobs would not have created Mac. That argument is dead. While I'm on the topic of adoption, you said that there are an absurd amount of orphans who need to be adopted etc. Many people who want children and can't have one don't want to travel all the to a different country because they don't have the money. They want to help their own country. Other countries take care of their own problems. Why help other countries when they can help themselves. Maybe you're forgetting that there are people who want to adopt kids within their own country too. Next subject is rape. There is no doubt that I feel bad for raped women, but which is better? Murder or rape? The woman can hate the kid all she wants, but if she gives it up for adoption, then she won't have to look at it, love it, or care for it for the rest of her life because someone else will do that. She was part of the crime, she was victim so now she must take responsibility and not put it on something that had no part in the rape in the first place. Why kill something innocent for a crime that the father committed. Also, rape will stay with her no matter what. It's something that scars someone emotionally. Aborting the kid won't make it any better. Now, it's I killed my kid and I was raped. Gee that sounds even better (sarcasm). It's almost like someone's kid who got ran over by a car and survived with much physical damage. Should the parent kill their child because it pains them to see their child in a helpless estate? Should the parent decide that instead of dealing with it like a mature adult, they'll just kill the child because it makes them hate the driver every time they look at the kid? You're almost saying the same thing.Next point is abortion is murder.Yes, we kill animals, but what do they all have in common? Heartbeats! Yes, the heart may beat for awhile after the brain's dead, but that person is a dead man. Why, if a heartbeat is not so important, do we do CPR and check for heartbeats when someone is knocked unconscious or is dying? We do it to see if they are alive. This is the same. We check fro heartbeats to see if a person's living, then the "fetus" must be living if it has one. The fetus is a baby. No child is unwanted so there is no reason to kill it.Steve Jobs could have been aborted, but made a computer most people use today. Steve Jobs was adopted and obviously wanted by someone.The mother's life in rape is greatly changed anyways. Giving it life and giving it up for adoption can allow the mother's life to go on.If abortion was illegal, more people would have a chance and people would be able to have their wishes of having a child. I'm not suffering and dying and I was an orphan and am an adoptee. For my analogy you said no one would care if a fetus died. I would. Some of my best friends were adopted and in one situation, it was either my friend get aborted or a divorce. She is the greatest friend I have. So really I care a lot because just think, if they were aborted, all of my friends wouldn't be here and neither would I. Don't you know anyone adopted that you love? They could have been aborted, but their parents decided to make the right choice. Ok. Fine, a lot can go wrong with a pregnancy, but that's what doctors are for. Doctors are supposed to be saving lives, not ending them through abortion. If the mother is going through complications, then doctors are there to help. A lot of things can wrong in anything you do. For example: when you get a tattoo, there are risks, but when something bad happens you normally go to a doctor. If there were zero complications with anything, then we wouldn't need doctors and the world would be perfect. I know many people who have had kids and had pregnancy issues and went to the doctor and started feeling better. It's painful, but that's why we have pain killers and it may dangerous, but that's why you normally go in for ultra sounds during a pregnancy to see what's going on; this way you are less prone to unexpected complications. I have an essay for round three and a video for round four. I am looking forward to your response. By the way, the website you asked for is abortion.procon.org. It was my mistake, however that the survey was taken in 2002. I needed to post a more up to date survey.
