Furthermore, most abortions done in the United States, are done illegally to begin with. So not only are those that partake in abortions murderers, but we can add law-breaker to the list as well.

Um, murder is the default name for illegal/unauthorized killing, sport.
Also, fetuses aren't persons yet.
Finally, the fact that abortions of the 'back-alley' variety take place doesn't make ALL of them illegal, in a country where it is not illegal federally.
Murderers and lawbreakers?

"Furthermore, most abortions done in the United States, are done illegally to begin with."
That's quite a big pronouncement to make with no citation to back it up.
"So not only are those that partake in abortions murderers, but we can add law-breaker to the list as well."
If abortion WAS murder, those participating in it WOULD be breaking the law regardless of your initial claim, however, abortion is NOT murder, so STFU.
Okay, I'm pro choice, though I think abortion should only be used as a last resort, and be considered a tragedy. Fetuses aren't people? How do we know that? How do we know anything?
Citations or you are lying for jesus.
You're own book says lying is a sin.
You just doomed yourself to everlasting torment. Better get praying for forgiveness.
All I can say is that every single one of the posters on that thread except one are MALE and would never have to have an abortion. Go get pregnant assholes, then we'll talk about giving away your freedom to uninvolved self-righteous prigs.PS Jason, fundies lying for their religious beliefs are still violating commandment #9(and like it or not the commandments do apply to fundies) and you are a big-time liar about most abortions being illegal. I've noticed that most anti-abortion people are big-time liars(and males).
Why are these no-brain shit-heads so anti-abortion, while miscarriage (spontaneous abortion) is hailed as their god's will?
I seriously fear for the future of the human race.
Whether your like it or not, abortion is legal, and are LEGALLY performed. And you had better check your statistics again. More abortions are performed in Indonesia, China, and India than in the US.
Also, a blastocyst isn't a person, so no one is being 'murdered'.

Exactly.
"Okay, I'm pro choice, though I think abortion should only be used as a last resort, and be considered a tragedy. Fetuses aren't people? How do we know that? How do we know anything?

Damn messed-up post.... Anyway, my response to that quote from clockworkgirl21:
Being pro-choice doesn't mean that you necessarily agree with all choices, or that you love abortions and think they're just the niftiest thing ever. It just means that you think abortion is a matter of individual choice.
And abortion is a last resort! Who would rather pay $500+ bucks for an invasive, painful surgery than pay $10 for a box of easy-to-use, painless condoms?
Also, we know fetuses aren't people if they don't fit the definition of what makes a person. Typically, it's a sentient human being. Fetuses may be human, but they are not sentient. If we do decide that they are persons, why aren't animals people? All that separates us is DNA.
But even if a fetus IS a person, that doesn't give it the right to live in someone else's body without their consent.
A friend of mine not too long ago had an abortion. She'd cheated on her boyfriend and had left him to marry the other guy, but things fell apart and she didn't feel right carrying the child to term. She mentioned something disapproving about a friend of hers who had had one seemingly more for convenience and I said, "Look, I'm adopted. Coming around to a pro-choice position was incredibly difficult for me and I'm still not terribly comfortable with it, so I'm not going to condemn anyone for their reasons for aborting."
“Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer. Give them, 0 Lord: what wilt thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. ."Hosea 9:11-16
Your god is not prolife. Shut the fuck up about abortions.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
