Second it takes a lot of gall for a man to demand he rule on what a woman can do. 1. When does a "fetus" magically become a "baby"? Does the vaginal canal have a magic wand that bestows personhood on a fetus when it comes out? 2. What if some women are killing other individual humans because of the inconvenience of letting them live?

Its thinking like yours, that keeps some God fearing countries so backwards in policy. IE rampant sexual abuse, rape, but a fear of confronting it. A man is the last person that needs to be in charge with dictating what a woman can do with her body. 7 hours ago, blackbird said: It is a human's life we are talking about.

I do think there is a huge difference between killing in a war and killing a fetus because teenagers were to stupid or lazy to use birth control...with no consequences, I mean all we really missing at this time is a drive through clinic, that you don't even have to get out of your car....I mean what damage could be done if the baby is carried to term , then given up for adoption, which has long waiting lists...it has economic bonuses as well we grow our population, provide good homes for all these children....the consequences is they carry that baby to term for 9 months... I agree but what I do not agree with is some poster trying to differentiate between killing babies...be they fetus or 2 year old and justifying it. Saying killing a child is OK in war and then insinuating they are a victim of war is nonsensical. A child is not a combatant. In the case of backturd, he/she seems to insinuate the child is hamas and that is a consequence of war. A child has no political affiliation. Espousing the bible anti abortion and dismissing the "Thou shalt not kill" scripture in one hand and then praising one nation killing kids with the other is BS and hyper hypocritical.. As for "teenagers being too lazy too stupid or lazy to use birth control". I think that teenagers are not true. "the majority of women who had abortions (57%) were in their 20s, while about three-in-ten (31%) were in their 30s. Teens ages 13 to 19 accounted for 8% of those who had abortions, while women ages 40 to 44 accounted for about 4%." https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/03/25/what-the-data-says-about-abortion-in-the-us/ Quote Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

CITIZEN_2015 Posted August 5, 2024 Report Posted August 5, 2024 Abortion should remain legal up to a point where it is a fetus and part of woman's body (not sure how long after pregnancy. I leave it to experts). If a fetus is alive so is the egg and sperms are alive too. Life does not start when sperm enters the egg but when baby with brain and heartbeat is formed. After that (likely two to three months after pregnancy) killing the baby must be considered as murder. Quote

Having an unwanted child is far more of an imposition on a mother than Iran attacking Israel would be. It doesn't make any sense what your excuse is for shunning the killing of one person but not the other. Just isn't internally consistent. Quote

You forcing or shaming the woman into having the child, literally adds to the trauma of that very rape. You clearly have never met a rape or molestation victim, if you feel having the baby is in her best interests. 5 hours ago, blackbird said: That has been shown. Your opinion has been shown. Nothing more. Its like me posting a religious article from a developing country that practices strict sharia law, and stating that a woman exposing her stomach must be met with 100 lashes from dried goat skin. Certainly factual within the limits of your beliefs and country, but that stops dead in its tracks the moment you step foot in a western and free society. 5 hours ago, blackbird said: go into hell for eternity You clearly haven't seen east side downtown Vancouver. I think many would take their chances. You're precisely why many churches find themselves losing attendees. My wife is a born again Christian and God fearing. She is a live and let live type of person, and strongly believes that religion is a choice. Her daughter also happens to be gay, furthering the importance of adaptability to the realities that we all face. You can't force feed your rigid and antiquated beliefs onto others. You will be met by heavy resistance in a free society, especially if there is heavy handed evidence refuting your claims. Quote

There are lots of people who can't have children and looking to adopt a child. Adoption is very common. No, it isn't very common because very few people can actually afford to raise a child. Many of the kids just wind up living with a pedophile who systematically rapes them, often because the pedophile has been informed by 1960s intellectuals that sexual repression is the source of fascism. Our economy is more focused on killing random people across the pacific ocean who are inconvenient for Israel than it is maintaining the possibility for replacement level childbirth. And this is by design. And the state that has designed the society that way has no justification for making it more difficult for people to just try their best to enjoy their individual life as difficult as it is.

You clearly haven't had a woman in a long time, or live in a country where they have no rights. You are incredibly out of touch. You entirely miss the point. I realize the law enables a pregnant women to get an abortion. My point is the law is wrong and evil. The discussion is not whether she can go ahead and have an abortion. Obviously under the law she can. My point is that it is the wrong decision. It is contrary to God's inspired word. There should be no such thing going on. I realize I have no say other than what I post on this forum. I post what I believe to be the Biblical truth. That is the right path to follow. Anyone can ignore that and do their own thing. But there are consequences such as killing an innocent baby to begin with. Then the woman may have to live with the guilt of that the rest of her life. That may be a painful thing for some women. There is also the gospel in the New Testament. She can become a Christian and through God's mercy and grace, obtain forgiveness. The word "rights" does not necessarily cover everything moral and righteous as a country's laws may be immoral as Canada's are. Therefore some things are left to the individual to understand and do or not do. Just because one has the right to do something under the law doesn't mean it is the moral or righteous thing to do. Thinking that because the law allows something, doesn't mean it is the right thing to do. That idea is a deadly interpretation of the law. She may become a Christian and find forgiveness through the grace of God. Edited August 5, 2024 by blackbird Quote
