[your forcing upon an unwanted child? What about failed contraception? What about accidental pregnancy? What about illnesses which are “scientifically proven” to be triggered and/or caused by pregnancy?What about the physical and mental changes the woman has to go through? May I also point out that not all women have easy pregnancies, supportive families and partners, decent income, health insurance (to where it concerns)]
• [“What about girls who are raped?”]
I’m not Catholic, but I believe they have a very sensible and ethical procedure to handle cases of rape. Rape is no excuse to kill a human. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
• [“What about women physically unable to follow through with pregnancy?”]
Women who are physically unable to follow through with pregnancy should not get pregnant to begin with. Use birth control. Get a tubectomy. Consult a doctor. Don’t rush into an abortion. There are options that pro-choicers tend to neglect to mention.
• [“What about women in abusive relationships?”]
If you’re in an abusive relationship—get out of it. This isn’t rocket science. I don’t know what an abusive relationship has to do with abortion. Are you saying that a woman isn’t capable to raise a child on their own?
• [“What about people living in poverty?”]
Poverty also has nothing to do with abortion—well, unless you’re into eugenics. The last time I checked, their are plenty of children living in poverty today. Keyword: living.
• “What about the unanswered questions your forcing upon an unwanted child?”
I’m not totally sure what you were trying to say here but there is no such thing as an “unwanted child.” That’s a terrible term thrown around by terrible people. There is always someone willing to adopt a child, even one that is disabled. For example we have people in this country that are smuggling children in from other countries:
•[ “What about failed contraception? What about accidental pregnancy?”]
An accidental pregnancy is not the child’s fault, is it? Trying to justify murder for your own mistakes is like a bank robber justifying killing a police officer because they were caught stealing.
• [“What about illnesses which are “scientifically proven” to be triggered and/or caused by pregnancy?”]
Again, see the Dr. Koop quote above. Talk to your doctor about the risks of the possible risks of pregnancy. Otherwise, use birth control or get a tubectomy. Be personally responsible for your actions. Sex is fun but it’s not a game.
• [“What about the physical and mental changes the woman has to go through?”]
No offense, but tough shit. We’re grasping at straws here.
• [“May I also point out that not all women have easy pregnancies, supportive families and partners, decent income, health insurance (to where it concerns)”]
Despite your myriad list of excuses, it all boils down to personal responsibility (other than in the small case of rape). There’s really no good justification to murder an innocent, unborn child. It’s neither logical nor moral.]
