First of all, i found your answers to some of the guest book entrees
disturbing.
Why? Because I don't believe we have the right to decide if other people's
lives are worth living or not? Or because I happen to disagree with you?
First I would NEVER abort my child due to the fact that i
personally believe that the fetus after the 2nd trimester is a live, human
being. So therefore i would never even consider abortion for
MYSELF!!!!!!!
However, I believe that the women involved have the right to do as they
see fit
with accordance to their bodies and beliefs.
Ah. So, you believe that abortion kills an unborn child, but believe that
women have a right to kill that person if they choose. Let's replace the
word "abortion" with slavery. I would NEVER personally own slaves, but I
won't interfere with someone else's choice to own slaves! The natural
reaction would be, "But slavery infringes on someone else's rights!"
Exactly, AND SO DOES ABORTION. In what other case would you say "Well, I
wouldn't kill someone else, but I won't interfere with another person's
right to kill someone"?
There are many circumstances that
can make a woman to make a decision for abortion and it is not up to us to
hinder her choice.
What if a woman decides a day after she gives birth, that she cannot
handle the child. Can she kill the child? Why not? When someone's "choice"
infringes on the basic human rights of someone else, then we do indeed
have a right to say something. If someone decided that you deserved to
die, would you appreciate everyone sitting back, allowing that person to
exercise their "choice" to kill you?
I like to say that even though i am pro choice, i do not
believe in abortion but i do believe in the woman's RIGHT to choose what
is
best for her.
So you believe that people have a right to kill their children?
Like Janine Garafalo said... for All those pro-life activists out
there... if
you dont' want a baby getting aborted, then they should get them... a
"buddy"
that you are responsible for the next 18-21 years, to spend 40 hrs of time
with
them, and give up 40 % of their paycheck!!!! I'd like to see you do that
for
everysingle child out there... Good luck if you decide to try....
Are you against child abuse? Yes? Well, why aren't you out there taking in
all the abused children?! If you can't take care of all the abused
children in the world, then how dare you speak out against child abuse?!
Are you against abortion doctors who have butchered women who went to them
for an abortion? Yes? Well, I hope you are willing to pay the medical
expenses for all those women! If not, then you shouldn't speak out against
it.
I just love it when pro-choicers say that pro-lifers should take care of
every unplanned child, as if they themselves don't have to help because,
after all, they support the legal right to kill the child, so hey, they've
done their part. Well, "G," I DID offer to do basically what you suggested
- when I was 19 years old. I offered to leave college and come home and
dedicate much of my time and money to helping my friend who was faced with
an unplanned pregnancy. She turned me down. I also know pro-lifers who
have done this and many more who are ready and willing.
I also know plenty of people who are aching to adopt
children. Do you know anyone with an unplanned pregnancy? If so, please
let me know, because I know people who will adopt the child. Right now,
there are not enough "unwanted" children to meet the adoption demand.
Also, you mentioned that you found my other guestbook responses disturbing. Did you
find it disturbing when one of the pro-choicers I responded to blasted the
Catholic Church for assisting a pregnant girl in need?! Here you are,
saying that pro- lifers need to help more, yet you don't utter a single
word about the person who went on a tirade against pro-lifers when they DO
help!! Do you blindly agree with what someone says, as long as the person is pro-choice?
Like Elizabeth Cady Stanton said, "When we consider that woman are treated
as property, it is degrading to women that we should treat our children
as property to be disposed of as we see fit."
