Personally in my mind ABORTION IS MURDER. I would never do it.

At the same time I dont think it should be a political debate it should be a persons own choice. I say that because if we made it illiegal people are still gonna do it, so we should at least have a safe place were people can get abortions.

ONCE AGAIN THATS JUST WHAT I THINK/FEEL

It depends on what your views on murder are. Regardless of religious or moral issues, the destruction of a life, no matter how simple it is, is killing. The embryo or fetus may not have the advanced feelings and thoughts that an adult human would have, but the destruction of it's developing body is automatic death, and the only two causes of death are from killing (murder) or natural causes (natural causes include diseases; it is from the environment, which in turn can be clumped together as "natural", at least for this particular discussion).

Personally, one person's lack of control or reasoning should be no excuse for the death of another. Sexual abuse and rape is the elephant in the room most anti-abortionists fail to recognize or discuss, but then again it's a tough issue to find an answer for. However, if unprotected consensual sex produces an "unwanted" child, there should be no rights given to that person to destroy a developing life simply because that person "doesn't want a baby".

There are other factors, obviously, that I will not touch on because it is too intricate an issue to pick apart and address at the moment. If anyone wishes to hear more on my opinion, though, then by all means ask me.

This was really well said and I agree completely!!!

[hannahnananana]

i'm against it.

[Charlotte.]

Well im not gonna say im completly against it because as said earlier on if a girl is raped or is like a druggie or has no money to look after it then abortion might be for the best, but that dosnt mean that i like abortions, because i dont. I think adoption is much better because the baby will have a much better life with someone who will be able to look after it and support it better.

i personally feel that everyone has the right to decide weather an abortion is the right thing for them at the time that they have to make the decision
i dont think they should be judged for it
i personally wouldnt be able to have an abortion as i would feel like i was destroying a life of an innocent little human
no matter what age i got pregnant i would keep the baby
i feel that if you have been irresponsible enough to have sex without contraception when you dont want to bring a new life into the world that the baby is now your responsibility and you shouldnt end its life because its not the right thing for you at the time
i think adoption is a better option as you are not destroying your life or their life
but i totally disagree with abortions xx

Abortion is running away from responsibility..........that's my thought about it.

If you don't want to have this problem, then don't get yourself fucked.........

And as for rapes, I do feel sympathy toward that, but I still think it's running away from responsibility.

Giving away a child for adoption is or raising it without conditions is irresponsibility. By having an abortion you're preventing a person from living a mediocre life.

Are you suggesting that it is better not to be alive than to be put up for adoption?

[Wynn]

No, I'm saying it's irresponsible to put another person in this overpopulated world to simply ignore it.
