  • "Saying that there are too many children is like saying there are too many flowers."

    Cool, but flowers don't take a significant toll on your body, life, and bank acount. No one has to give up college or travel or a job for a flower. No one has to live in poverty to support a flower. There aren't millions of flowers already waiting to be adopted without adding another one to the suffering. Growing a flower doesn't have the potential to kill you if something goes wrong. A flower isn't a life long commitment

    • You're only 19 bro, chill. You are not carrying the weight of the world with you so relax. You sound so bitter and negative.

    • @Listening5 I am bitter and negative. I'm also pro choice.

    • @Listening5 bitter and negative is better then being completely delusional.

  • I may even be pro life for myself, but I'd never tell another woman to be. For now I'm pro choice for myself, but I just acknowledge I could change my mind when I'm actually preggo. That doesn't mean I get to tell other women to not terminate their pregnancies.

  • I'm not sure what the original poster's view on this is, but I think if you are against birth control and sex ed, you should have no say in abortion. You can't say you're against abortion and then be also against actions that prevent unwanted pregnancy in the first place. It seems to me many people who are hardcore pro-life are hardcore against birth control and sex ed, it's so counterintuitive.

    • Sounds like they're anti sex or at least anti premarital sex. I agree with more use of contraceptives then there'd be less abortions. I mean as I said above, abortion should never be a go to for contraception but still available should a person need one.

    • Besides, while this isn't the main point, there's a stigma to being a single parent and I'm sure a lot of people don't wanna deal with a kid from another mom/dad especially that was unwanted.

  • i don't want kids, i'm not religious, and i'm thrilled that sex doesn't mean pregnancy. but i look at it this way:

    abortion hurts women. and yes, there are inconvenient pregnancies, but there are no unwanted children. if you cannot care for that child, or bring yourself to love it, i can guarantee you that someone else out there can and will.

    everyone says that pro life=pro birth. by the same token, pro choice= pro abortion as a method of birth control. it is not a decision that should be taken lightly, and i encourage people to fully consider all available options before committing to something so final.

    (and, for the "only men and religious people are pro life" folks, i am neither.)

    • What you say may be true for late abortions. But it just isn't the case for early, pill induced, abortions. The cramps can hurt a bit, but nothing like giving birth ! do you disagree with morning after sex birth control?

    • @jonblane it seems you misunderstood my post. when i say that abortion hurts women, i'm referring to the psychological damages that lst for years after the procedure; some professionals say that the mental anguish following an abortion is similar to ptsd and have taken to calling it post-abortion syndrome or post-abortion stress disorder. (of course, not every soldier suffers from ptsd, and not all women who have abortions will experience these things. but, as with ptsd, enough people suffer from it to constitute a serious mental-health issue.) morning-after bc is fine, since it prevents fertilization from ever taking place and will not terminate an existing pregnancy.

  • I remember going over to my sister's house one day to check up on her. She was six months into her second pregnancy, and her husband was working out of town. she had lost her first pregnancy, nearly died of complications, delivered a still born child at six months, and was told it would be very risky to try again.

    When I got to her house, she did not answer the door. I called, and she did not answer the phone. I let myself in and found her on the kitchen floor passed out. She was immediately put on bedrest for the duration of her pregnancy, and I remember all too well lying there with her holding her while she cried, afraid the complications she had with her first pregnancy were happening again. She would have had no choice, in that case, but to abort in order to save her own life.
    She did end up having a healthy baby boy, my miracle nephew, and having her tubes tied immediately (during the c-section, as a matter of fact).
    The point is, the vast majority of people who have abortions don't want them. It is most often a last resort and an agonizing decision, and to remove this option would cause only that much more agony.

    Is pro-choice anti-life? Not by a long shot. But "pro-life" is most definitely anti-choice.

    • Well said. Yeah abortions aren't something people do recreationally. I mean some people are reckless and don't use protection but even with people who do use protection, accidents still happen. Condoms break, birth control pills don't work sometimes, etc. In fact getting an abortion itself is an agonizing decision for the woman going through it. They feel bad they're killing a life they created but can't afford to take care of it or for other reasons.

    • @bloodmountain1990 it's not really ' a life' when it's the first or second month. yes i know i know it's alive - but it's basically a collection of cells with potential to become a human being. you could say the same about a teenager's load of sperm he spurts into a kleenex every day... if you tried hard enough to match the sperm with eggs you could repopulate america... semen are potential humans as well. i don't agree with late abortions, by the way, but i think it's mad that people take an extreme position on v. early abortion ~ it can even be done with a pill in the first couple of months.

    • @jonblane agreed. If early term abortion is murder than so is masturbation which means blow jobs is cannibalization... if she/he swallows lol.

  • "I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born." -- well thank you captain obvious.

    But look, no one is pro abortion. You don't need to tell us that abortion is terrible. The thing a lot of people think that sometimes it's the lesser evil and so far I haven't heard anything convincing to make it illegal

    • Killing a child and wreaking havoc on your uterus is never the, "lesser evil."

    • @Danimal007 well that's the thing we don't believe it's murder and therefore yes

    • Yeah I mean it's not like women who get abortions are putting it out there that they did. They don't feel happy about it and getting multiple abortions can make it so you can't ever get pregnant again. It's not like women who get abortions announce it publicly or make a Facebook post/tweet about it nor should they.

  • Mother Teresa was a terrible person! There are numerous accounts of her denying proper healthcare not for lack of funds, but because she said that the "world benefited from their suffering", yes she really said that and YES THAT INCLUDED CHILDREN.

    Reagan, the right is notorious for trying to deny aid to those families that are in poverty and need assistance.

    I can't take these quotes seriously, it just points out the hypocrisy of denying abortions and then actively participating in the suffering of children. Call me a monster, but Id rather our attention go to the many children already alive suffering from poverty who need health care and food, those in adoption and foster care, those who need access to schools and education and after school programs, than protecting the "rights" of embryos..

    • ''I think it is very beautiful for the poor to accept their lot, to share it with the passion of Christ. I think the world is being much helped by the suffering of the poor people'' - Mother sadist teresa

    • @Race_realist I used to look up to her but I didn't know how terrible she thought of poor people and treated the sickly she was revered for "helping".

    • Your logical fallacy is ad hominem tu quoque. They actively participated in the suffering of children but that doesn't make their quotes any less true. Attack the sentence, not the person.

    • Show All

  • yes, there is such a thing as too many children. I believe it's expressed often in the forms of the parents being unable to financially support the children, or not provide the emotional and mental support the child needs. I'm alive, thanks to my mother's pro life choice, and as a result she dropped out of her career to raise me. In my opinion, that was unfair to her, and I would have no ill feelings to being aborted.
    Also, I don't believe that life starts at contraception. Up until maybe the point that the fetus is able to perform all functions of life independently, it is merely a fetus and an attachment to the mother.
    So, what should a pregnant woman do? I hear that adoption is an option, or so all you pro life people say. I don't see the orphanages empty and these, now children, being welcomed with open arms. For example, the Romanian orphanage crisis. These lives, now that they are lives, could have been spared this suffering.

  • Thanks for posting this. I remember sitting in a University class bringing up the fact that most women who have abortions are not raped teenagers, and everyone started screaming at me. They were very invested in clinging to this idea that every girl who has an abortion is a victim and would, the way they tell it, just plain DIE if she had to give birth to that baby.

    It's nine months out of your life, and then you can give the child to a family member or give it up for adoption. There's literally nothing stopping you from continuing to live your life, with or without a pregnancy, with or without a baby.

    I'm really tired of the schools making it sound like birth is the worst thing that can happen to you. Our low birthrate is the reason why we have to replace our population through immigration in the first place.

    I didn't even say I was against abortion, just that their information was inaccurate, and they started screaming like wild animals. I couldn't help but wonder why they were so invested in being allowed to kill babies.

    Maybe they should just sterilize themselves.

    • But it's not really a 'baby' is it at 4 to 6 weeks? it's a potential baby true but not a real one. same with your egg that comes out of you every month ~ it's a potential baby if fertilized. i don't agree with late abortions ~ when the fetus can feel pain, and looks properly like a baby. but using a pill in the first couple of weeks is not the same as 'killing a baby'.

    • @jonblane Good point, and I really wish abortions happened at 4-6 weeks. The reality is that most girls don't find out they're pregnant until 4-6 weeks, especially girls who aren't trying to get pregnant. You have to miss at least one period and most of us will wait at least a few weeks after it's due. Then you have to make a decision, and even if you make a decision day one you have to wait for a doctor's appointment. They have to do an ultrasound to find the position of the fetus and it's size, and also ascertain that it's healthy, because we don't kill unhealthy fetuses I guess? That appointment takes a month and a half to get, and then the abortion appointment takes another 1-2 months depending how busy the clinic is in your area. Usually pretty busy, since abortion is so popular and vanity abortions are performed as an outpatient procedure. So by the time you get the abortion, you are 4-6 months pregnant. A 6 month fetus can be viable if born. But we kill them anyway.

    • @jonblane also faking my argument to "prove" your point is kinda silly, isn't it. My argument is against the reality against abortion. I don't have some fantasy argument against birth control lol

  • Many medical procedures involve the termination of living cells, which is what an abortion is.

    • LOL.

    • No. Its not the termination of cells, its the terminiation of life. That's actually scientific fact. Also those terminations don't terminate some one elses cells so even pretending that your stance that its just a clump of cells (which by the way you are as well) is accurate your view that its okay is still wrong because its not the cells of the person who had demanded the abortion.

    • @hellionthesagereborn "[I]ts the terminiation of life. That's actually scientific fact. [sic]" Nope. Actually this statement is neither scientific nor fact. Believe it or not, there really is no scientific consensus on the definition of 'life'. The most widely accepted definition is anything that has metabolic function and can reproduce itself. However, by that definition, some minerals are alive while viruses are not.

  • I have an idea for you "pro-lifers" out there. Instead of protesting outside a legal abortion clinic, why don't you go inside the clinic. Then as each young lady walks into the clinic, you tell them having an abortion because your going to adopt the child. You will sign papers stating your intention to pay all her medical expenses, purchase maternity clothes, and all other expenses of the pregnancy. You will assure her that you will love and nurture and care for the child the rest of its life.
    If you don't want to do all of these things, perhaps you should stay the fuck out of her business.

    • @godfatherfan There are probably hundreds, if not thousands, of crisis pregnancy centers across the US that will help women through their pregnancy and to adoption. Many women accept that option, many don't. I know a whole lot of pro-lifers who have adopted or taken in foster children. Others help the families that do. Call your local crisis pregnancy center and see how you can help.

  • Refuting from the bottom up:
    -If everyone has great potential (including zygotes) then great potential doesn't mean anything. It's like saying everyone's intelligent, intelligence is relative and not absolute or universal, same with potential unless you define it out of existence.
    -"Too many people use abortion as a form of birth control. And that’s very wrong. I could never, ever have an abortion." This does not prove anything, it's not a successful argument, it has no actual inferences.
    -"Abortion is inherently different from other medical procedures because no other procedure involves the purposeful termination of a potential life." This does not address instances of incest, rape, life of the mother or serious mutations/similar biological problems.
    -"Abortion on demand has, in my judgment, contributed significantly to an environment in our country in which life has become very cheap." Ok... how so? This statement makes no inference as to how this (what it claims) might be the case.
    -"Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love but to use violence to get what they want." This does not make any inference as to how removing a possible life of some length extrapolates to "what they want".
    -"When we consider that women are treated as property it is degrading to women that we should treat our children as property to be disposed of as we see fit." Zygotes, sperm cells and eggs are not children. Protons and neutrons from stars are things which COULD EVENTUALLY become persons also, the (failed)'logic' that zygotes could become children and therefore is children, produces stardust could eventually become children and therefore is children.
    -"I think we have deluded ourselves into believing that people don’t know that abortion is killing. So any pretense that abortion is not killing is a signal of our ambivalence, a signal that we cannot say yes, it kills a fetus." This just asserts that "abortion is killing" without supporting that claim AT ALL.
    -"People often say that abortion is a woman’s choice, and they’re right, they choose life the moment they have sex." There exists instances where sex does not produce life. In addition, such instances do not require harm in addition to those that do produce life (in fact, often less harm).

    • Continued: -"I certainly supported a woman’s right to choose, but to my mind the time to choose was before, not after the fact." If the fact is having sex, this quote does not give any inference as to how one should not have sex if they don't want children. -"I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born." Again, there's no inference here, yes, a person existing requires that the possible person he/she was to not have been aborted, the quote is accurate but makes not argument as to how abortion is objectionable. -"Saying that there are too many children is like saying there are too many flowers." Persons use more space than flowers. Persons use more resources than flowers. Persons can suffer. Persons can cause other persons to suffer. Most persons do not understand logic. Most persons act (at least mostly) in their own interest. The quote makes absolutely no sense and I would laugh her out the room, rightfully.

    • Continued (2nd continuation): More generally: If one argues that greater human life is inherently desirable (this is to say, regardless of quantity) then one has to commit to accepting the claim that filling every possible corner of the universe with human life is inherently desirable. Perhaps what is more applicable (common) is persons claiming that each next possible human life is inherently desirable. This is essentially as easy if not easier to refute in the case of that "I am worth fighting for" quote as it is unsubstantiated (as in not substantiated by evidence in at least this case) Next time you want call 10 quotes "amazing" give me some that aren't insanely easy to prove to be absurd and/or irrational. -Have a nice day :D

  • So a person is supposed to abandon everything they strived for education and/or career wise for a foetus they didn't want?

    • Contraception is idiot proof. Pregnancy is a natural consequence of sex.

    • For a life you mean. And men must pay child support, is that not making a big sacrifice for your children?

  • Great take. You know with all the different kinds of birth controls we have now... there shouldn't hardly any abortions.

  • Meh fuck life. 7.4B is too many, Mother Theresa is full of shit, a flower only needs dirt, water and sunlight to live. Humans need far more resources unless they are living like sewer rats (I'd rather not exist at all if I had to do that) and there's limited supply. Stupid comparison. If I were dictator I'd loosen murder laws to where not only ALL abortions were legal but the parents had the right to the kill their kids up until they were adults at age 18. If they were allowed to bring them int other world they should be allowed to take them out of it until then. There, the end of the idiotic pro-life/pro-choice debate. Hell I haven't talked to my mom in 30 years. Part of the reason for that was because she didn't abort me when she had the chance (I was still first trimester when Roe vs. Wade was decided).

  • The U. S. is the most violent country on the planet and it's not because of pro choice people.

    • Literal autism.

    • @TheSpartan What does autism have to do with this? lol

    • It is your country which forces people to carry guns.

  • I get annoyed at these "Pro-Lifers" they aren't pro-life, they're Pro-Birth. They couldn't give a damn about the life of the child once it is born.
    Prenancy is no easy street for women. At times their health, and mental health is in jeopardy. Sometimes there is foetal abnormality present and there is no viable prospect of live birth. Then there is rape to be considered.
    No man will ever have to take that ultimate decision, only a woman will.
    Women need to be given that choice of what is best for their health and mental well being, if there are complications with the pregnancy.
    Where i wouldn't agree with abortion on demand, or abortion being used as a method of contraception. It's never a black and white issue, where black and white dogma, or legislation should be the rule.

    • We do care about life after it is born, we just have different ideas about what is best for it and history has shown our ideas work better.

    • Of course most "Pro-Lifer's" give a damn about the child after it's born, they're the ones who adopt and foster the children you didn't want after they convinced you to carry the child to term. You'll never see a liberal pro-choice (it's all about me) couple running a foster home with a bunch of children.
