Susie is only 12 years old. She’s brutally raped by her brother, father or even a stranger. She gets pregnant. Are you really going to tell Susie she’s committing a sin by having an abortion? Some would say “it’s not the Childs fault” but it’s also not Susie’s fault. Should she be forced to go through a painful pregnancy and have to decide between missing out on the rest of her life or putting a child she gave birth to up for adoption? Also, a girl Susie’s age might not even physically able to give birth. Have you not heard of young, very tiny, girls dying during labor because if their size? Or the child dying anyway?

How many kids are sitting in foster homes? How many people stay in foster homes until they’re adults? The rate kids are being put up for adoption is way higher then the rate they’re being adopted.

Get over yourselves. Right or wrong, we are all allowed to have our own opinion. Everyone keeps shouting that God does not think it’s right and God will punish you… Then you would also believe God created all things, including abortion. You know what other 2 things God does? Gives every single person the power of FREE WILL and he FORGIVES! Why are we all so willing to take what the Bible says and use it against others, while completely forgetting the other things it says? Selective memory, maybe? Or maybe just hypocritical.

Right or wrong, abortion is legal. No, it shouldn’t be used as birth control, but no, you also should never, ever judge a person or tell them what they should it shouldn’t do unless you’ve walked a couple miles in their shoes. Not everyone who has sex that results in an unwanted pregnancy is a slut, bad person, uncaring or anything bad. Wait until it happens to you, you’ll be preaching something different.

I commend the women who keep an unplanned and originally unwanted child, but kit everyone is in a place on their lives that, that’s possible.

Casey, shut the hell up and stop harping on everyone else. Take a look in the mirror and reevaluate yourself. If your daughter, who wasn’t even a teen, was raped, you’d really force her to have a child? A child that could potentially die anyway, or harm your daughter VERY severely physically AND emotionally for the rest of her life? If your answer is yes, YOU are the real monster.

I don't know, you know its just tough to admit that I realized that all the church does is lie which is contradictory to the loving image I'm trying to project.

Odd.

1. A majority of women get depressed after an abortion, true. BUT, the same ratio of women get depressed after giving birth. It's because of all of the hormones that are released during and after pregnancy. And the symptoms include anything from the weepies to abandoning the child in a dumpster.

2. Abortion is safe. It's as safe as any surgery that's not drastic (like heart surgery). The only dangers are the same dangers a person takes in any surgery, like the doctor slipping. The two cases that people make against abortion where the PATIENTS' own fault. The one girl got an abortion and then had sex with her boyfriend a day later (not a smart decision) and the other publicized case, the girl lied about her age, weight, and medical history. She failed to tell the doctor that she was on blood thinners. That's how she died.

Casey– Sub-Saharan Africans are at such high risk of HIV because of their culture and countries. Most the people live in extreme poverty and don't live in sanitary conditions.

Sorry, I forgot that I was talking about the same people that denied the fact that condoms help HIV prevention to the highest at risk group, Sub-Saharan Africans! Haha, silly me.

I also know some people who've been through the adoption/foster-care system. If you think it's always the loving, merciful decision, think again.

But it's WAY easier to just oversimplify things and assume all women who have abortions are just selfish sluts who have no compassion for the life growing inside them, or are even too stupid to realize that a separate organism is growing inside them, hmmm? It's not so easy to realize that abortion is not as cut-and-dried as most anti-abortionists like yourself make it out to be.
