Why does every "life" deserve a chance??? Did it DO something to "deserve" a chance?
It doesn't need to. I know there are many who would agree with you throughout history but luckily history has shown their true colors. Just as we can see yours here and now. Sad.
Do you think that women get pregnant on purpose so they can have an abortion, just for funsies?
Thomas Peters of CatholicVote.org
That is from a catholic.
The fact is, 54% of women who had an abortion WERE using birth control. Having greater access might reduce abortions, but it will not eliminate abortion.
ALL methods of birth control fail. Abstinence only education has been shown to fail.
Unless YOU are willing to pay more in taxes to support these new children, it might be best to let the woman decide.
And before R v W there were back alley abortions, so there is no true count of the number of abortions then.
I Call BULL Feces on that ( there are Birth Control Methods that have a 1% failure rate) that can be implanted into a woman or injected into a woman.....

What a fuss the pro "choice" crowd makes if someone even questions whether abortions should be banned or not.
Why is the killing of one million less significant than the killing of twenty children. This is a sick, sick society if we can't even see the illogic in that.
No logic in your logic-free argument.
What about all the billions of babies being murdered thanks to the lovely act of masturbation?

Abortions are not murder because you're not ending a viable life. No other argument is necessary because even according to the bible, life begins at first breath:
Quote:
After God formed man in Genesis 2:7, He “breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and it was then that the man became a living being”. Although the man was fully formed by God in all respects, he was not a living being until after taking his first breath.
In Job 33:4, it states: “The spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.”
Again, to quote Ezekiel 37:5&6, “Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the Lord.”
In Exodus 21:22 it states that if a man causes a woman to have a miscarriage, he shall be fined; however, if the woman dies then he will be put to death. It should be apparent from this that the aborted fetus is not considered a living human being since the resulting punishment for the abortion is nothing more than a fine; it is not classified by the bible as a capital offense.
According to the bible, destroying a living fetus does not equate to killing a living human being even though the fetus has the potential of becoming a human being. One can not kill something that has not been born and taken a breath. This means that a stillborn would not be considered a human being either. Of course, every living sperm has the potential of becoming a human being although not one in a million will make it; the rest are aborted. .
God has decreed, for one reason or another, that at least one-third of all pregnancies shall be terminated by a spontaneous abortion during the first trimester of pregnancy and that a number will be terminated after the first trimester. It would appear that God does not have any more regard for the loss of a fetus than he does for the loss of a placenta or a foreskin despite the fact that these were living tissue as the result of conception.
In a number of versions of the bible, one of the commandments in Exodus 20 that was spoken by God to Moses states: “You shall not kill”. According to the Mosaic text, this should read “You shall not murder” since the bible has commandments stating that people shall be put to death for a number of different offenses. Exodus 21:17 states: “Whoever curses his father or mother shall be put to death.” There are other capital offenses in Exodus 21. Of course, the commandment “You shall not kill” is not present in the commandments written by God on the stone tablets. For those who are not familiar with the commandments on the stone tablets that were placed in the Ark of the Covenant, they are enumerated in Exodus 34. The popular ten commandments that are enumerated in Exodus 20 were spoken by God to Moses who then relayed them to his people; they were never written.
There is nothing in the bible to indicate that a fetus is considered to be anything other than living tissue and, according to scripture, it does not become a living being until after it has taken a breath.
These children had actual lives and were actual people, the 37 day old fetus inside a woman never existed as a human. Remove that fetus from the body and even will all the science and techology in the world, it still cannot survive to viability. Hence, you are not alive until you are about 20-22 weeks in the womb, at which point the vast majority of the pro-abortion crowd also believe that abortion is wrong.
Do you have any anti-abortion arguments not based in your ancient superstitions based in a world where there was no science or medical technology capable of performing a safe abortion?
The Anti-Abortion Majority here in The United States of America.....
Yeah right.
The anti abortion majority scream about their taxes going to feed real, living, breathing children. Do you honestly think that they will pay for monthly testing for every sexually active woman in the US?
That is 157 million women. Say HALF are sexually active.
so 78 million x $8 (the average price of an OTC pregnancy test) = $624 million dollars a month.
The left wants guns registered the third time you have an abortion for birth control you should have to register your body and a danger of being fertile
