I believe life begins at conception, and I do not profess the Catholic Faith.
Also, I've heard of cases of pro-life atheists. I've not met any myself, but considering the scientific validity of life beginning at conception, it doesn't surprise me.
Some will come up with the rape argument. No doubt that puts her in a difficult situation through no fault of her own, and certainly society should help her. However, if we accept that human life begins at conception, clearly killing the baby is not an option.
that is disgusting, where are you coming from are you so lost in your anti abortion rheteric that you have lost all semblance of decency?
I don't limit it to catholics...I hate all religions equally. Just a bunch of idiots who use some fictional explanation of the unexplainable to control the masses.
yup..... better to go your way. Kill an innocent that had nothing to do with the crime. I suppose you would also support killing the other children of a rapist?
No G. I support the rapist and his spouse making their own decision. I also support the 11 year old victim making her own decision to keep or terminate the fetus. You see that, I support individual's choice.
The problem with that is that the fetus is a human being. How do you balance her rights with its? That's like saying you have the right to kill me.
No, nicky has already stated that the "fetus" is nothing more than a parasite, a growth. He has equated it to being a cancer.
According to the law it isn't. It is only individual's opinions that it is a human being at that point.
Of course I balance all rights the same way, my life is more important to me than yours or anybody else's so in the right situation I would kill you without a second thought.
If I did not believe a fetus to be human, I'd have no qualms about a rape victim being allowed an abortion, and I truly can appreciate the difficulties involved. Again, society should provide her its full support whether she keep the baby or give it away. And certainly it would not be fair for her to be penalized should keeping the baby stand in the way of saving money for education, etc. However, there is still that pesky detail. It's human.
If I denounce my status as a Person, I can choose to go on a killing spree because laws only apply to Persons.
So if I were just a pesky nuisance, you'd kill me without a second thought?
OK, being sarcastic, I'm sure you didn't quitre mean it that way. But on the point of law, yes abortion is legal. so are smoking, drinking, gambling, even being stupid in other ways within certain parameters. The fact that it is legal does not make it right.
At one point the RCMP and Indian agents had a right, nay an obligation to legally remove children from their parents to send them to residential school. The Constitution gives the government the right, nay an obligation to discriminate in favour of 'the two founding races' in its language policy. Then we have the separate schools. The fact that it's legal doe snot make it right.
