Hello friends,
For a very, very long time I have always been against abortion even when I was an athiest. I was always disgusted and horrified by how people whould agree to murder a living human being... "For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb." (Psalm 139:13) So you see... God formed us in our mothers womb. If people destroy what they have in there wombs they are destroying what God has given them. Children are a gift of God. They are special, beautiful and I love there innocence. Jesus has always loved children. Don't we all? Abortion Statisitics:

How could abortionists properly kill babies if they weren't allowed to practice first?! Silly poll!

Gosh, no one even cares about the consequences if it was illegal
The rate of back-alley unsafe abortions would rise rapidly I know about adoption but in many countries not every child gets into an adoption center and has to live on the road and gets abused. So in my opinion, Abortion should always be legal because not everyone believe that it's "murder" |

So in my opinion, Abortion should always be legal because not everyone believe that it's "murder" And pedophilia should always be legal because not everyone thinks it's wrong, right? |

Okay Yoshi I'm not here to debate, you should know better
First of all, I don't get the strawman thing And I think majority of the world is against pedophilia, abortion is 50/50 Man, if I was bashing the pro-lifers I'd be banned but this certainly isn't the case |

I was simply pointing out that while you may feel a certain way, those statements alone really don't provide justification for your argument. I'm not here to debate either, but nothing is as cut and dry as "well, some people want it, so it should be OK," or "if we ban guns, only criminals will have guns." etc.
By all means, disregard. I wasn't trying to hijack the thread. |

It's a horrible indictment of this self-centred society that murder is considered acceptable.
Abortion should definately be illegal. |

The reason Roe v Wade was decided for abortion because the supreme court believed it was a privacy issue for the mother to have that child or not, that whatever decision they make, they must remember it for the rest of their lives.
I am 80% sure that the government recognizes life at the moment of conception. Forgot where it was said though... Now, if a woman privately abuses her child after birth, everyone would be horrified, and if ample evidence is given, she will be convicted for child abuse crimes. If the woman can legally be convicted for harming someone's life after birth, and the government states that life begins at conception, then a woman should be convicted for giving an abortion. So I believe that abortion should be illegal. |

No,I don't believe it should be illegal. However I personally believe that there should be a cut off date of 12 weeks for abortions to take place. Untill that time, in my opinon, its not immoral to abort the foetus and shouldn't be seen as murder by any stretch of the imagination.

no it should not.
But I've given up debating my point of view pro-lifers can't keep their emotions out of it and it never gets anywhere |

Can you say, "strawman?" And pedophilia should always be legal because not everyone thinks it's wrong, right? That's hillarious! If you're going to point out someone's logical fallacies, don't make your own in the same post! Comparing abortion to pedophilia is a false analogy Seriously though, thanks for making my day. And lastly, Rachita pointing out the concequences of illegal abortion is not a strawman fallacy...I'm kind of scratching my head over that one since it's just not even somewhat a strawman..she didn't misinterpret the pro-life position. She just pointed out the consequences of making abortion illegal. And no, abortion should not be illegal. |

Should be illegal, we are all Gods children at the moment of conceivement.
What happens with the child after its born, thats a different matter. |

First of all, I think abortion is wrong & immoral and I do not think it should be practiced. BUT do I think it should be illegal? No. Why? Because if abortion were to be made illegal we would be back to where we started. Before the passing of Roe v. Wade many, many women turned to botched abortions. They would perform it themselves in many dangerous ways which would end up killing them. If abortion were to be made illegal I think that this sort of thing would happen again. It's very dangerous to make something such as this illegal.
