So, if I have a "problem" with another human being~and find myself in a situation where I have the choice to terminate them, or deal with them like a big girl~either of these actions are totally okay??

Please note: I view human life to begin at the moment of conception, therefore I believe abortions homicide.....If you don't share this opinion than this would not apply to you....

go to the thread it was started on steen are women dying to terminate all relivant facts are there as you already know

please note this is fact
i did go there, and there was not one example of a documented case of a woman having an abortion with mtx and dying. So as I questioned, where is your evidence of these women actually dying?

Notably, in that tread, you stated the following: "did I say they had died ? Errrm no "

so it sure seems like you are **not** saying that women are dying from abortions with mtx. So again, please provide some substance to your claimed "fact." please show that there are abortions through mtx that causes the woman to die.

And please provide evidence that mtx is actually used for abortions, other than in ectopic pregnancies where a d&c can't be used. You seem to have "forgotten" to do that as well.

Because, as I questioned before, that is not just some hypothetical thing you are talking about, is it? Where is the support for your claim of mtx used as an abortifacient other than in medical emergencies, or that women die from this use of these "elective" mtx abortions you claim are happening?

so surgeries should only be allowed when the risk is as great as that of heart disease?

Or not allowed when the risk is as low as with pregnancy? Which one is it?

After all, you are now saying that there is a certainly level of risk, under which the suregry (in this case it happens to be an abortion) is not allowed/valid/justified/accepted, right?

See, I told you that you probably don't want that argument, but now we are there. So please provide the criteria for when a surgery is ok, risk-wise.

i don't share that opinion, and therefore, to me your argument reads as nonsense.

please stop trying to twist my answers steen,i never said that any operation shouldnt be performed whatever it be.We were discussing banning heart surgery as you well know.Why have you taken one line from my post and tried to make it something it is not,i could not of said it more clearly,the risk of not having heart surgery is greater than the risk of not having an abortion,of which you agreed so how do you come to the conclusion that I said only operations with the same risk can be carried out,i havent.Some small operations can have just as a dramatic effect on peoples lives,

you have put a gradinet of risks on different types of surgery.

yes, and abortions are some of the most life-improving surgeries there are. We saw that in the past in the us, where women were so desperate to terminate their unwanted pregnancies that they would incur tremendous risks in the process. And we see it today in the countries where contraception is limited and abortion is illegal, where every hospital has a "women's wing" for the women who have undergone unsafe abortions and are suffering the health consequenses of this. Yet, women there still abort, despite the risks. As such, the access to a safe, legal abortion is a tremendous relief. Only those who neglect women completely can not see the value in that.

are you trying to say that if you don't agree with someone~that their case is just nonsense?? That's not very fair do you think?? I might not agree with someone, but I at least respect their views....

Can you find a post were I ever told you what to do or what to beleive in?? Do you really think that I have the power to do this.........If I ever did tell you what to do (which I never have) I certianly hope you can decide for yourself whether or not to do it, and recognize that me telling you what to do has no impact on what you actually have to do......I don't care what you do....Go get abortions~i won't have one....This is a debate forum....What do you expect??

the father has just as much a right to that baby as the mother as w/o his sperm, there is no baby. He does not have to carry it, it's still just as much his right. If I ever knew a man whose baby got aborted just because the selfish mother "needed" to do so, I would feel terrible for that man. How truly sad that would be. Abortion is just sad to me. And if the woman is not getting the abortion for "life and death" reasons, she is selfish for obtaining one.

As for the talk about what if she can't afford it or wants to finish school or rah rah....If she thought about that to begin with we wouldn't have to ask this question. There are far, far, far too many forms of contraceptive to cry "oh no, i'm pregnant"...Out there. The flat simple point is if your not using any or taking precaution, well then accept the outcome.

Take me for example. My pregnancy was unexpected. I was not exactly careful though and knew in all reality I could easily become pregnant at any given time. And I did. And I accepted it and it was not easy for me at first. Me and the father ...My husband now were not doing well and I was very emotional over some other things. That does not give me any right whatsoever to go kill my baby. That's the point....A woman has no right to abort a child. Period.




---great post jlee-- I agree with you 100%!!!

....Hence...A dabate forum. We are here to debate, not tell you what to do. As we never have and never will. But alas....We will voice our opinions, as you will too! :wink:


yeah so you're not telling us what to do by saying "keep your legs shut if you don't want a kid" and you aren't trying to tell us what to do if you happen to want abortion illegal? I know some of you prolifers don't want illegal but some do and the ones that do are the ones I am referring to. Maybe if you added.. "why don't you" in front of what you want us to do.. Then it won't come off as you giving us orders but to me it sounds like you're barking orders.

I do happen to believe that abortion should be illegal...How can you justify taking a life? Just because you feel like it right? There is no justification in abortion and in *my* eyes there never will be.

It's stupid to think that you can destroy a life just because it's inconvenient to you.

Having an abortion isn't about an "inconvenience." a woman shouldn't have to go through a pregnancy that she doesn't want to. Forcing someone to go through with a pregnancy they don't want, is just as bad as forcing someone to have an abortion when they don't want.

So it's not about inconvenience?

"it just wasn't the right time." = inconvenience ( thought it would interfere with their life)

"i wanted to finish school" = inconvenience ( thought it would interfere with education)

"it would interfere with my career" = inconvenience ( thought it would have a negative impact on career)

"i didn't want to have a baby right now" = inconvenience (self- explanatory)

" I didn't think I was responsible enough" = inconvenience ( not convenient at the time because they thought they weren't mature enough to handle a child)

" the father didn't want it" = inconvenience ( would interfere with relationship with father)

"i couldn't afford it" = inconvenience (thought it would be a burden on income)

must I go on?

So please dear don't tell me that abortions aren't done for convenience.
