[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [qb] I can't quite pin down the argument that abortionists make. You argue that it's the mother's body and thus her soverign right to do what she pleases. Someone points out that the child has a body too, and you jump to arguing about economic consequences, as if that rendered the previous argument moot. Someone points out that economics is no excuse for immoral action, and you jump to the definition of life. Someone questions why responsibility for one's child created by one's voluntary actions should begin after birth instead of before, and you decide to talk about rape or how laws about paternal child support aren't enforced. Yes, you have legitimate points in some cases, but please try to be a bit more linear, because right now we're just going in circles. [/qb][/QUOTE]The point is that you're all for telling women that pregnantcy is the result of their irresponsible behavior, yet are [i]against[/i] her taking responsibility by ending an unwanted pregnantcy and not bringing another unwanted child into existance... Now [i]that's [/i] talking in circles. The ultimate fact is, it's her body, so it should be her choice what to do with it- weither to let it develop or stop it while it's still pre-sentient. No one should make that choice [i]for[/i] her. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Irishman: [qb] I've been with my wife during her pregnancy. She never thought of it as a burden, nor developed a psychosis due to the "shock" of said condition. Do you really want people with temporary psychoses making the decision to end the life growing within them? I don't. [/qb][/QUOTE]Your wife had [i]you[/i] there for her- and I'm sure you both wanted (probably planned for) the child. If she were the victim of rape, you'd likely feel a whole lot diffrent and she would [i]certainly[/i] have some trauma over the event. Your instance would never be a burden, because she [i]chose[/i] to have the child in advance and with someone she loved and who would be there for her. She wasn't the victim of a crime, or of failed cobtraception. Tell me you can see the diffrence here. [QUOTE]I really don't think you care about these mothers in unwanted pregnancies. I think you just want to be right.[/QUOTE]Or I know several mothers that look at having their child as the moment their life went wrong. The moment when their future was forever tied down to raising a child they [i]might[/i] now love, but never wanted and could not care for- most when they were still in their mid-teens. None have careers, none went to college and all work full time to support a child... alone. Most carry that anger around, and it shows in how they treat their kids. [/QB][/QUOTE]
