Whereas animals are just animals. |

| now who is attacking? Anyway... No, I wasn't, and I don't see where you got that from. Oh, was it it because I said that what makes us human is emotions, thoughts, etc? And the fact that fetuses don't have those things? Sorry you don't like the facts of biology. Their brains aren't developed enough for that, according to research.
The line "animals are just animals" is seperate, thus why it is on a seprate line. It is in reference to the other part of her question, where she asked why you people are okay with animals dying, but not fetuses. Again, context hon. You're good at taking me out of context. Do you practice? |

typical pc reply eh. |

query: why is it "typical pro-choice", and what exactly do you mean by this? Do you mean that it is an open minded opinion, with room for expansion and compromise? Or, are you trying to imply that i'm pro-death and that I hate children? |

are you comparing a fetus to an animal now. |

exactly like others have mentioned because animals are not human beings and zefs are human beings. |

no I mean the sarcastic arrogance of the reply, this is why, even though I believe in a womans right to choose for herself, I will never call my self pro choice, I personaly would not want my partner to abort and luckily she feels the same.Btw I have never said you were pro death, now whos twisting words.As for me using punctuation, what a joke. I remember you complaining when I pulled a pcer over her punctuation.I have just broken my arm so I may miss the odd comma having to type one handed. |

| please, we're trying to be logical here. Don't bring religion into it. I personally feel it is very bad to base a decision that can potentially kill thousands of young women on a religion. And i'm taking about all the girls who can die because they can't get a safe abortion. Use religion for yourself, but america (at least) is built upon a seperation of church and state (or so it used to be. The current president is mucking that up though). |

i have said before eiri I have no pobrem with abortion being legal for those girls who would risk their lives for an abortion. I think it should be illegal because million unborn babies die but I am okay with it being legal for this group of women willing to suicide. Legal or not don't take away is not a nice act even if you have no religion at all. And religion does matter eiri because that is one major difference between humans and animals and america more than 70% of people have a religion, predominatly christianity whether you like it or not. Religion is part of the characteristics that describes a culture from a certain region. |

we have stated erie that abortion whether you call it not a nice act or not is exactly the same like a not a nice act. A planned death of a human being. So if you have an abortion you have to say that you did planned a death and went ahead with the dead plan of a human being. You take a life away exactly like in a not a nice act. The only difference is that in not a nice act case you go to jail and with abortion you do not. Act is the same. |

don't need to worry about that one, you are free to abort all the babies that you want. Actually I would encourage bahaha to have abortion, we sure don't want replicas of bahaha out there lol. |

now this is your own personal opinion that I sure don't agree with you. I do not base my morals in stories made up by frightened human beings. I believe in god, I have seeing first hand the miracles and have experienced myself so I am fully convinced of his existance. This is the silliest thing you have said erie. |

please learn how to spell my username, it's only 4 letters long. Now, who is we? Pro-life? Okay, i'm going to assume that's what you meant. Abortion is not exactly like murder. When someone murders someone else, they mean harm, they are angry, and they want to hurt the person. They intend harm and pain, and there is hatred. A woman who aborts often cares intensly for the fetus; and aborts because she knows she can't give it the life it deserves; and she knows that adoption is not always a good answer. Abortions are done out of care and concern, and a person does not die, like in a murder.
i'm not christian, I do not believe in god, so pelase top using him as an excuse for an argument. Any other way to respond to my statements besides your religion?
i'm insulted that you think I shouldn't reproduce. I'm sorry you don't want children raised by openminded people. Of course, you probaby want the wolrd to become more secularized, and have religion and state be as one. Also, I don't want to abort any potential children. It would hurt me very much to do so, but I would, if I had to.
name a miracle you have seen. No, birth does not count because we know how birth happens and it is wonderful, but not a miracle. Your specific religion actually stems from a desire for the humans living in the harsh desert-like land of the middle east to explain why life sucked so much. They decided they needed an afterlife to look forward to, or there must be one, because this life was so hard. The devil was invented because simply threatening the israelites with punishment upon their descendants wasn't enough to make them behave. So, a hell was developed, where those whole disobeyed the rules would supposedly go after death. It was all made up by humans. Why is my disbelief any sillier than your belief in a compilation of fables written by falliable men nearly 2,000 years ago? |
