I believe in rights for women.
Ha...so, in other words. You have no real argument and are only capable of parroting and repeating meaningless buzz-phrases...dually noted.

We all believe in rights for woman too...and men. It's just we believe these rights extend to all people and not just ones that you have decided are worthy to receive them.

i would support a ban on abortion when the federal govt. and state govt.s insure that all women will get all the financial and medical support they need to raise the child, since they are being forced to have it.

That is the dumbest tripe you've posted thus far. No one forced them to make a baby. They made the choice. Now they are pregnant. They can give up their baby for adoption. People will PAY THEM to have it. Adoption demand exceeds abortion demand (none of you eugenicists will address this FACT).

Quote:
 
they also should get free childcare so that they can work and support themselves and their child.

There is no such thing as free healthcare and they are welcome to give up their baby for adoption by a family that can afford healthcare (bwt, most states have universal healthcare for children...way to stay informed)

Quote:
 
if the govt. isnt going to provide women with the tools and resources they need to successfully raise a child, it has no business telling them they MUST have it.

You are a socialist fool.

It isn't the goverments job to play santa claus meets robin hood and create your socialist pipedream. On the other hand, it is their job to protect the rights of individuals....including babies.

Only a eugenics-loving control freak socialist bootlicker would say something so moronic. No one is getting abortions after a week. You are either completely clueless or a LIAR. Average age is 6-8 weeks.

You are the only one bringing up religion. I didn't. Not sure what you are talking about. My guess is you have nothing real to say so now you are reading your Marxist buzzword playbook...

I'm against socialist control freaks like yourself....You do more to empower the evil people running things, that make people think abortion on demand is necessary, than anyone. You might as well work for David Rockefeller himself...And no, you would lose that bet (and most others, it seems). Sperm is not human. This is human:

You must be very very young, or very very immature, because you seem incapable of having a discussion without attacking the person you are talking to. Your parents should have raised you with better manners.

Women should have the right to do what they want with their bodies. This is the essence of personal freedom. When we give the Federal governmant the right to tell us what to do with our bodies, all bets are off. If we overturn Rowe vs. Wade, the slippery slope to fascism is complete.

Agreed....but once again, there is another person's body in the mix here. You can employ doublethink and say it is something else, but its a person that the woman chose to create. Sorry.

No. The essence of personal freedom was the womans choice to create the baby and the baby's right to life, liberty and property.

Once again...we aren't telling anyone what they can do with their body. We are telling people what they can't do to someone else's. Btw, it is illegal to light yourself on fire and then run around and hug people. So...you aren't just allowed to do ANYTHING with your body. Your vague, tired terminology is proof positive you don't really have much of an arguement...

When you had a response, it would seem. I responded to your usual rhetoric, and you ignored my response. I can only assume it's because you didn't have anything further to say.

Please stop posting photos of foetuses (sorry, microscopic humans; I wouldn't want to be labelled a eugenicist), we all know what they look like. It's like a vegetarian showing a picture of a cow to a meat eater and saying that's why you shouldn't eat meat. There's no logic to it.

Funny how Rax fails to answer the question: "would you apply animal cruelty laws to dogs and cats in utero?". The answer is...no. why, because that would be just silly. 1 week old dogs..are not dogs. just like 1 week old humans..are not humans. a seed is not a flower. a hunk of steel is not a car. an acorn is not a tree.

a 1 week old elephant is not an elephant, deserving of protection under animal rights laws, and neither is a 1 week old human a human, deserving of civil rights, social security benefits, and the right to arm bears.

That's amazing, what's ridiculous is there are possible answers to that question but none of them have even considered them (punish the abortionist, not the woman, for example).

I love the last one, 'god called you?'.

They are not pro life one bit, all they are is are pro bible.

Um...you say I didn't answer the question and then you quote my answer. Hilarious.

And once again, no. Dogs and cats aren't humans. Humans are humans. Its funny how you call something a dog and then say it isn't a dog. 1 week old dogs..are not dogs". Um, yes, dogs are dogs. lol

Once again, most abortion take place LONG after this. You will continue to ignore that FACT, which in turn proves my point. And elephants aren't human either. I can't figure out for the life of me why you think that point is valid.. :D

Um, no. Only an idiot would try to insinuate im some sort of religious fundie. You only show your ignorance when you read from your lefty cue cards....I simply take life seriously and respect humanity. You don't. That is where we differ....

This is human...get over it.

There is nothing extreme about advocating NOT killing babies. You are the only extremist around here. You are a nanny-state enabler and eugenisist. I'm not "attacking" you or anyone else (just like I'm not "destroying woman's rights"), and especially not "viciously". I'm just pointing out very succinctly how idiotic your world-view is.

You're side will never win. Ignorance and cheerleaders of tyranny never win. Ever.

I know all still stands. The truth tends to do that on its own, amazingly...Rox has torn all the eugenisists arguments to shreds. Exactly. All still stands.... ;)

If you have something you think I failed to address, then kindly repeat it. I've ignored nothing intentionally. You probably just said something irrelevant and not worth commenting on, honestly...

It Is EXACTLY the same. It's the same as showing a photo of a (living) person (who may or may have been murdered; it's irrelevant) to put people off murder. In fact in your eyes that is what you are doing.

I don't think anyone here says abortion is pleasant, and I don't think anyone would like to see abortions on unborn humans older than a few weeks, and certainly not beyond 20 or so weeks. I believe there should also be agreement between two or more unbiased doctors that the procedure is necessary for each individual situation. But to completely remove the possibility from mothers and FORCE them to have a child who for WHATEVER reason they feel they cannot have is to dictate.

What we should NOT do at any cost is let the bible - or any other non scientific text - dictate policy. Which let's face it is the primary reason people are anti abortion. As soon as the word god comes into a political debate it cannot be taken seriously. Politics is politics and religion is religion and the two should never mix.

I await your trademark cut n paste n belittle retort technique.

My point is that shit happens and people aren't always responsible for their own reproductive organs. You would like to think in all circumstances this is the case, but that's not 100 percent truth. When situations occur and a woman gets pregnant she doesn't have a human being, she has a possible viable zygote, embryo, fetus. It is up to that woman to decide whether or not to become a mother.

If you can figure out a way to stop death sentences, euthanasia, and the problems of why there aren't enough people for adoption, then perhaps abortions won't be necessary for women.

Think dog pound and animal control problems for why there are too many abandoned pets put to sleep each year. Now think of this problem on a human scale.

Quote:
 
First, we must emphasize that the establishment of a culture premised upon the use of certain discovered universal physical principles, defines a culture with a certain upper limit on its potential relative population-density. However, no such fixed level of potential can be sustained indefinitely, since attrition of used resources will lower the potential, until scientific progress, as in modalities of increased effective energy-flux densities, corrects this problem. Therefore, cultural progress, including advances in discovery and application, as by capital investment, of the kind of universal physical principles actually expressed only in the modalities of analog functions, were necessary if a presently achieved level of population-density were to be sustained.

This distinction is otherwise located in the function of crucial physical experimentation in physical science, and in the role of Classical modes of irony in musical polyphony, in Classical poetry and drama, and in the tradition in art of Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael Sanzio, and Rembrandt. In respect to physical economy, the primary requirement for the maintenance of a society's level of potential relative population-density lies in the development of, and investment in basic economic infrastructure and in production (per capita and per square kilometer). However, without fertilizing the modes of communication in a parallel fashion, in the modalities of human mental processes associated with analog functions, physical-scientific creativity will be aborted.

If I was a woman, I would want the right to decide what to do with my body, as long as it doesnt harm anyone else. And yes, the fetus growing inside of me MAY become a full grown human, but while I am feeding it with my stomach, breathing for it with my lungs, it is my choice to decide whether to keep it or not. Thats one of the main difference between humans and human fetuses. Humans breath and eat on their own. Fetuses do not.

It is. I just am still appalled at the deaths of those Chinese children. I guess my main assertion against all of this is that if we allow nations to murder those who have stepped afoot on this earth how can we ever tackle the abortion issue. I do believe life is a beautiful thing I just wish we could do more for the ones that are here now. I am disgusted at how expensive of a price they put on babies. I think since we put a value on human life it has partially damned us on these issues until we can actually conquer and say no more of this vile shit.

I have like this mental block of abortion because every time I think about it, I think about dying children and it's just a rush of hatred in me. I guess for me it's like this we have to fix this first thing before we can really get down to the second issue. I guess I'm a little partial to moving creatures.
we can attack all of these problems with one declaration.

"I will not kill ANYONE."

If we all adopted that single line and made it true, abortion, war, theft, murder, would all virtually dissappear.

I think he meant to say "I believe it's the woman's right". In that, he is correct no matter how hard we could argue this matter. There are roles we play in nature, the second men start trying to tell women how to run their lives, hahaha just all i can say is haha. If abortion numbers are high it's most likely a reflection of the surroundings, so to boil the conversation down to just abortion is idiotic and will take us nowhere. Lets bring that circle back round yall.
it is a moot point, since no one has the right to harm another, no matter what their maturity level is.

for instance, you say it is the right of the woman to know what she should do with her own body. well yes, but then the question that the Constitution would seem to ask is, "Does excersizing that right take rights away from someone else?"

With abortion, the answer is "Yes." Excersizing the right to terminate a pregnancy in your own body would be perfectly fine if it were just a "pregnancy", but it is not. It is a life and it would be terminated along with the state of "being pregnant".

That is analogous to saying that "Every slave owner has the right to do what he wishes with his or her own property". Well yes that is true, but as we eventually figured out, the owner of the slave does NOT have the right to violate the human rights of the one they consider their "property". Therefore, slavery is illegal now, although at one point property rights concerns gave it some legality.

We're not saying women don't have rights to their own bodies. We're saying that those rights cannot EVER violate the rights of the unborn child to at least be given a chance at life.

The logic is simple.

To argue otherwise is to argue that some "higher" humans have the right to violate the rights of "lesser" humans, which is pretty much the evil that we are all fighting.

TO oppose evil, you must oppose all violations of human rights. Everywhere. Including inside someone's body.

Arbor generalizing statements such as that are ABSOLUTELY unacceptable and inappropriate.

7 days. Sorry dude but that is totally not on. This type thread is prone to cause emotional outbursts considering its subject matter. I'll advise that everyone takes a breath and considers whether what they're gonna say might offend others before posting. Thanks.
