For rape cases I believe that the abortion can be performed very very early within 1-2 weeks. So that it doesn't reach late term.
Though I understand the idea, it's impossible because you can't know if the sperm has impregnanted the lady so early.
What I don't agree with is the ideology of pro-choice/pro-abortion people when they say "my body, my choice, I can abort my baby till 9 month as long as it's in my womb".
I don't agree with their ideology because after a certain period in womb, the child isn't just your property but it is also a unique life of its own and to take away his rights by saying it's just a fetus is a disgusting act in my eyes.
Then what is your definition of "unique life of its own"?
When the female and male gamete met? When they start multiplying? When you vaguely recognize the shape of a bean? When the eyes appear?
The reason people support late term abortion is because as long as it's in the womb, the foetus is constantly evolving in something more complex and more complete. There is no possibility to define an objective limite saying "before it's a foetus and you can abort" and "after it's a baby and you can't abort". As long as it's in the womb, it's a foetus, not a living thing. It's by definition a parasite sustaining on its host. You can get rid of a parasite if you wish.
There are so many people out there who would happily adopt a child.
yeah, all those empty orphanages
Some people would like to adopt yes. But orphans are more numerous than possible parents.
Now grant homosexuals the right to adopt and... Maybe you can reach an adoption demand high enough to sustain the unwanted pregnancies? Don't know.
I think being pro-life doesn't mean to go and shoot clinics, it simply means we think abortion is taking away a potential life. It has nothing to do with "choice".
I can substitute "abortion" with "murder" and say I am "pro-life".
Problem is that you talk about a potential life.
Pills is destroying potential life, condoms are taking potential lifes. Masturbation is taking potential life.
Potential isn't a valid argument or else you have to apply it everywhere.
While a person may say they are "pro-choice" and say that "I find murder wrong, but I have no right to say to other person if a murder is wrong. So if someone commits murder and they don't find murder wrong, then it is acceptable". Sorry to burst your bubble, but here, you are not pro-choice for murder, you are actually "pro-murder".
What you don't understand is that NOBODY says that. Anyone pro choice simply consider that a 6 months old foetus is just a foetus, not a human being. So abortion is not murder, it's just a chirugical operation to remove an internal parasite. Nothing wrong with that.
That's my stance on abortion
Which is fine as long as you're consistent and consider you should also ban pills and condoms as they take away potential lifes.
