I agree. I have been on both sides of the fence on this issue, and I keep eventually coming back to the pro-life side. It is a matter of right and wrong. The baby didn't decide to be born. The mother usually decides to have sex. In cases of rape or insest, I think we should still give the little bugger a chance at life. If it has a shitty life, at least we can say we tried, which is certainly virtuous. Killing babies because they might have a defect due to insest, or if they are known to have abnormalities, is only a small step away from forced sterilization of "untouchables" and then later massive eugenics policies. Yes, women have a right to choose. They have a right to choose right or wrong. They do NOT have a right to choose for another. The constitution exists to protect the weak from the strong. In this case, the unborn from the mature. That being said, we should all have a right to end our OWN lives. Ending another's life because you don't know how you'll be able to care for that life, is simply unacceptable. So many roses have grown out of the concrete. So many unwanted children have come to have wonderful lives, and contributed considerably to our civilization. So many handicapped children have either lived fulfilling lives, or shown others the true meaning of life. That is CARING FOR OTHERS. If we cease to care for the weak and those without a voice, then we very literally cease to be part of humanity. For such a thing, we would deserve no mercy from ANYONE.
