The old abortion issue....

[Poor Boy]

Lets put it this way Tex. Let us give the baby a sporting chance. We will take the name of the father,the mother, the doctor,and baby in a hat, draw out a name to see who gets to die.

My how democratic!! I figure since in doesn't involve me - why do I have a say? I don't think abortion should be a birth contol method - but beyond that I wasn't there for the act - so why would I have a right to say what action anyone should take? My morals are not the morals of the world and nor should I try to make them that. I hate parents that don't parent - but I don't think it's up to me to take them out and shoot them cause they don't meet my standards................. this abortion thing just is the womans choice and until men can start carrin babies - it will be - but never fear - there is a pill for a man - so he won't be used as a sperm bank any longer - lets see how many men jump on that band wagon!!!

Once again, not a baby until born. It is a fetus while in the womb.

But, Bubba, that's your belief. Mine is that it's a baby at conception. I couldn't abort one of my own and I've never had to face a daughter having to make that horrible decision, having only sons myself. I just wish no one ever had to make that choice. Hoarsie, you're in my prayers - your daugher knows you love her and that her baby is loved as well. She will be OK.

Here are some definitions from Webster's New World Dictionary.

Baby-a very young child; infant.

Fetus-an unborn offspring of a vertebrate animal that is still in the uterus or egg, esp. in its later stages and specif., in humans, from about the eighth week after conception until birth.

Embryo-an animal in the earliest stages of its development in the uterus or the egg, specif., in humans, from conception to about the eighth week.

If we could ask the fetus/baby/whatever in the womb his opinion what would he say?

Potential is the key word. Until it can live on it's own, it's a fetus.

Where is it said that it must fit the definition of the word "baby" to be deemed killing.?? That's just dumb!

Anyone who argues that a fetus is not alive (therefore, life) is retarded!

If you believe in God, you will obey his commandment and stop trying to justify murder of early life.


Thy shalt not kill!
