What do you think of doctors who abort babies?

[Anonymous]

My godmother used to abort babies small or 8 mos inside womb.

[NewsReader]

Shame on them. Same goes for doctors who circumcize baby boys. How can those people live with themselves after doing that kind of stuff?

[Anonymous]

They aren't doctors.

[Agape93]

Uh... they literally are.

[Opinion Owner]

Doctors heal people not kill them.

[Agape93]

They can do both, especially considering the parasite is not yet a person and is not a patient.

[Opinion Owner]

Humans aren't parasites.

[Agape93]

An organism that is attached to another organism for the purpose of extracting nutrients is by definition a parasite, and a fetus is exactly that.

[Opinion Owner]

It doesn't count if it is the same species; and certainly not the offspring. Especially when that is how a species reproduces. As mammals we invest more in our offspring than the rest of the five kingdoms of life. You can't bastardize the definition of parasitism to include one's offspring. As the definition clearly includes the fact that it involves two distinct species if you look it up in any biology textbook.

[Agape93]

It does count, parasitic behavior classifies one as a parasite, just not a taxonomic parasite. Nice try.

[Agape93]

Considering you legit said obstetricians and gynecologists aren't doctors, I suggest you educate yourself before you even try to go after others.

[Opinion Owner]

I said nothing about obstetricians or gynecologist. I only specified those that murder children. Also no species creates its own parasite. You should try taking a biology class if you believe that.

8 month abortion is usually only done when The child or mother won't survive the birth. So its rarely a real abortion but a decision to save one life over another and sometimes just save one life!(the mother when without this procedure both would die) Now with some state laws this is illegal so its just both die, child dies after birth or mother dies during child birth. So what do I think about doctors that do these abortions: they are life savers and heroes.

[Anonymous]

Really, because there are only a few late term abortion doctors in the U. S. and they only perform abortions if there are problems with the fetus, and/or mother and early labor or cesarean and not onsidered safe. If it's a nonviable fetus early labor and cesarean would be futile anyway.

Personally, I see it as another form of spawn camping.

On a professional level, the Hippocratic oath begins "I swear by Apollo", who most modern doctors don't even worship, but the basic "do no harm" tenet is pretty damn clear. There's room for ambiguity if the mother's life is in danger, otherwise, not so much.

Nurse here. They are doing their job as medical professionals.

[NotTacocaT6969]

They do an important job that saves sentient lives.


My best friend would be dead without a doctor who could remove the incorrectly attached fetus that was threatening her life.

[Agape93]

Glad she's safe, and that the doctor did their job. 👍

[Agape93]

I generally like them. They've never done wrong by me or anyone I know.

[Berethor]

Pro-life people would likely see it as breaking Hippocratic Oath, I am fairly neutral about it.

[MORPHEUS_12]

They are worthy of sainthood.

[AsaKyo]

I have no opinion of them

They're just doing their job

[SixOfClubs]

Legal killers.

[electromagnetic]

I’m in the neutral. To each their own.

[Anonymous]

They save just as many lives.

[Cubus]

They break The Hippocratic Oath.

[AngryCarl2]

Nobody aborts babies.

[gorydetails]

no she didn't.

[Wise4myage]

That’s just sick.

[Asker]

I know maybe thats why she got lung cancer few years later.
