Abortion - “Wizbang” of an answer
January 14, 2006 |
Thanks to Wizbang for catching the latest in pro-abortion fashion wear. One lady was wearing a lovely red on white ensemble this lady wants to stop the “slaughter” of life. To save life she is promoting abortion. “Save a mother” by sucking out an infant from the womb. Sure makes sense here - not.
Obviously it irony is lost to her and other like-minded supporters of abortion.
Three answers on abortion are given by Wizbang here (3 of them). Worth a quick read.
In addition he adds the following which I thought were well stated.
If you wish to enforce you morals upon America and make abortion illegal, then what’s your plan to reduce the number of women who die because of your actions?
“Enforcing morality” is such a stupid argument it hardly is worth debating… so I’ll do it quickly. All laws enforce morality. Does Tas want us to get rid of murder, rape, age of consent, fraud, blackmail, et al laws? It makes for great hyperbole but not much better than “Well they’ve done abortions for years.”
Slavery, for many centuries, enjoyed far more public popularity than abortion has today. There were down sides to abolishing slavery too. (like 650,000 people dead for starters.*) Using Tas’ arguments (if you can call them that) we should have kept slavery too.
So the sum total of tas’ arguments are that abortion has been around a long time and something bad might happen if we stop doing them.
In the end let me echo Wizbang, “Can anyone on the left make an intelligent argument today?” Amazing how many have been won over by these arguments.

I feel a woman should have the right to choose what she does. Does that mean a woman who has been raped is required to have the baby of her attacker? Who is to determine what is morally right for anyone? My morals may be totally different than Jane in Minesotta. It all stems down to a womans right to choose. I think religion plays a big part in this debate. Everyone has been trying to seperate state from church for how long and yet our currency is printed with “in god we trust”??? We are no longer able to pray in schools yet the national anthem has the statement “one nation under god”. Regardless, why isn’t there a law passed telling a man what he can do with his body ie: making vacetomys illegal? I have two beautiful children and don’t think I would ever have an abortion however, I don’t think its up to the government to make that decision. If I was raped or infected with HIV or cancer, I would have an abortion in a heartbeat.

…. Who is to determine what is morally right for anyone?….
I am most interest in that statement probably more than anyone else. The argument that the right to choose. Everyone wants to choose their own morality. No one is allowed to determine for them what is moral. So everyone is free to do as they see right in their own eyes.
But many laws are laid down that do that very thing. It is morally wrong to kill. It is morally wrong to cheat your neighbor. It is morally wrong to steal.
Everyone does as the please despite either the law or moral code. Outlaw abortion and many still murder their child. (I have argued that a child aborted from rape… the blood of that child could be placed on the head of the rapist). The women who want to abort their babies will regardless but they now expect both society and the law to condone the act.
What does abortion do? It kills your closest neighbor. It cheats your closest neighbor of a chance at life and it steals the most precious commodity they have… life.
Who is to determine what is morally right and acceptable? Our Creator who gave us that life. Are you to say you accept the millions being aborted as just a casual decision to get on with life? Will that be your argument?
Something for the pro-choicers to concider……
We were all once a fetus, is it beyond the realm of posibilities that when your mother first learned she was carrying you, she may have concidered her options?
What if she had decided to terminate?
Would that have been OK? You would not exist, if you have children they would not exist, and your (husband or wife) would be married to someone else. You would have been deprived of life with all it’s experiences and memories. In this day and age with abortions being so readily available, you are one of the lucky one’s.
Lucky due to the fact that you had a mother who chose life for you. Don’t you think they all deserve the basic human right to life?

World wide there are over three thousand terminations carried out every day. Thats well over a million every year. In the US fifty percent of all cases, birth control was used, forty-eight percent used no precaution, and two percent had medical reasons.
That’s a stagering ninety-eight percent that could have been prevented had an effective birth control been used. That’s sad.
Don’t get me wrong, I suspect the figures in Australia would be much the same. Just a whole lot of unnessesary killing.
