We can vote, we can take care of our children, we can use birth control. We can reassure a woman who is pregnant that we will provide for that child so that that excuse cannot be used in the decision to kill. We can, as a part of a community, shun people who take life or allow it to be taken casually.

That is so very true. And I pray that if more men do these things that more women will run out of excuses for ending the life of their children.

I just think it’s tragic that the ultimate decision is completely taken out of their hands.

Men are allowed to debate this, but that doesn’t mean they get a say when it comes to the actual decision.

(OK, if this were a liberal blog, that’s where I’d stop, but here, let me say that Of course I’m being sarcastic! Hey, as long as I’m on a roll, any pro-abortion rallies happening on Mother’s Day?)

On a serious note, when the subject is global warming, you often hear the argument that if they’re wrong, at least let’s err on the side of caution. I never hear that about abortion.

Yet they yell and scream about kids being exposed to Howard Stern, Opie and Anthony, Video Games, Movies and Music because of the “damage these things do to them!!!!” WHAT THE HELL DO YOU CALL THAT?

Well there is a God! There really is a God! And He is just and they will be called to answer for killing His children.

There is NO common ground. There is NO place of compromise.

Who says? I bet you’d be surprised how many pro-lifers would walk away from the cause if we knew abortion was only used in rape cases or medical reasons. Not all, sure, but quite a few. I would.

We all know that teenage out-of-wedlock childbirth is a MAJOR FACTOR that contributes to poverty in America. If public funds were available for abortions for the poor, there would be a lot less poor people. Enrique on May 10, 2007 at 10:40 AM

..stupid on so many levels. …or in other words “if we killed more poor people, there would be a lot less poor people.” There is just no way around it. Killing a person a few months before they leave the womb is still killing them.

I ordered the documentary today. It’s on backorder…so cool, they ran out already!

Was Einstein a “mistake”, Bill Gates, Edison…?

You tell me.

And of course, it is also speculated of Stonewall Jackson.

how a pro-abortionist things

Oops – that should be “thinks” – not “things.” Where’s that preview button when you need it? :)

The topic is important, life and death important. The discussion we are having here will be an important part of the Republican primary process. My vote will go to the pro-life candidate. So, in a way similar to your “I am John Doe” Vent, I say…

I am Pro-Life.

As someone who used to be pro-abortion, and turned pro-life at the same time I became a conservative, I can identify with the guy in the film who said he was short of breath after realizing that what he was talking about was a life. I felt the same.

To go from being pro-abortion to pro-life was one of the most liberating experiences I’ve ever gone through. I look back on my pro-abortion days with shame, but also know that having a good idea of how a pro-abortionist things helps me to be able to understand their rationale – or lack thereof – and helps me more in being able to precisely dissect their arguments.

If the test is positive for “autism” the mother with be given the option of “terminating” her “defective” baby.

Who the HELL gave anyone the right to kill babies that might grow up to be like me, or Ashley, or my son?!!!!
We may be a bit atypical but we are not-nor is any disabled person- a MISTAKE that should have been destroyed rather allowed to be born!!!
Heaven forbid that someone might be inconvienienced because of a less than perfect baby.

And yet the abortion industry fools mothers of potentially disabled babies into believing that the most mercifulthing the mother can do is to make “it” disappear.

I misunderstood your comments. My apologies.

Esthier on May 10, 2007 at 11:34 AM

Nicely said Esthier.

The whole, “Women should be able to get abortions because of poverty” line is really old, tired, worn out, and patently false. Whether or not a child lives in poverty, it is not up to us decide whether he lives or dies. Like tickleddragon said, why not just kill off the elderly, and thus solve the Social Security mess? Because it is wrong.

Enrique, the reason we keep up the “abortion is murder” drumbeat is because for the last 30+ years, the pro-abortion side has been banging the “choice” drum. And finally, this country is starting to hear us. And we ain’t about to stop now.

And if these pro-abortion people are all about “reproductive rights” and “reproductive health”, then why are they so opposed to placing sanitary standards on abortion clinics, to bring them up to the level of even a dentist’s office?

The women in that movie seem to be victims of a society that calls killing an unborn baby a “surgical procedure” –and not the completely safe procedure people are led to believe.

eforhan on May 10, 2007 at 4:51 PM

And that’s exactly the point I have been trying to make.

NOT that abortion is good for babies but just that it harms women.

The unborn children are not dead before the choice is made. Do the unborn get a choice as to whether they will be aborted or born?

No, since they cannot speak, very clearly they do not have a voice. So my comment still stands.

That’s like saying that a person who is killed isn’t a live victim of murder after the fact because he is now dead.

Yeah, that’s exactly what it is. A dead person is not a live victim.

I submit that abortion does more harm to the unborn child than to the mother.

aunursa on May 10, 2007 at 4:33 PM

Right. Killing something is worse than emotionally scarring and causing bodily harm to someone. I NEVER SAID IT WASN’T.

Really. Please. I can see that you’re passionate about this, but don’t let your passion blind you. I’m on your side in this fight.

The only thing I was saying is that abortion is bad for women. PERIOD.

I also agree that it’s bad for unborn babies, but I would hope that goes without saying. Aparently in this case it did not.

As a general rule, no, dead people do not get a say.

Some of you are picking on every little thing I write. Just because I didn’t mention that the murdered babies are also victims, it does not mean that they are not victims.

The unborn children are not dead before the choice is made. Do the unborn get a choice as to whether they will be aborted or born?

I was only saying that women are live victims of abortion. I’m only saying that abortion does more harm than good to women.

That’s like saying that a person who is killed isn’t a live victim of murder after the fact because he is now dead.

I submit that abortion does more harm to the unborn child than to the mother.
