It's because people go by their religious beliefs. Abortion isn't a touchy topic for me.

If you think abortion is murder, wouldn't it be murder regardless of how the baby was conceived?

Again, I don't think abortion is murder. I'm just wondering what the logic is behind the people that say abortion is murder but make an exception for rape.
Well I am one pro-lifer (in most cases) that would rather call abortion taking a life, but I don't think I would call it murder. Self defense is taking a life, but certainly not murder and beleive it or not many pro lifers do not believe in abortion in any case.

That is exactly what I just said before i read your response. There are exceptions to every rule we are taught.

They are hypocrites.

They SAY they are only concern is for the "baby" (nevermind telling them there is NO baby).


But , they turn around and say THEY would approve in cases of incest, rape or the life of the mother.




Which proves they don't care about the "baby" (afterall, abortion is abortion).....

they are ONLY concerned with controlling women, it's a power thing for those who have none....it's misogynist, they fear and hate women so are desperate to control and punish them.


They think: If a woman enjoyed the sex, she should be forced to have the baby.

If the woman didn't enjoy the sex then it's OK if she has an abortion.


Ya, no logic, no thought, no reasoning, just stupidity and jealousy of those who enjoy sex..
In your view stupidity, but what right do you have saying someone is stupid because they do not agree with you? What a childish attitude, especially when you add that bit about jealousy. No one is condemming anyone for enjoying sex, what is being said "use birth control" or maybe better said moral control.

It's the same reason why people of your ilk can control the food I put in my body, the lightbulbs I put in my lamp and the amount of water in the toilets I flush, but are pro-choice on abortion.
