I realize that,not everyone will agree with this(although,when you look at it in the perspective presented here,I can't understand why anyone wouldn't) but,to each their own.I,for one, am passionately against it for many reasons. Unfortunately my stance on abortion is the less popular one. But, I'm willing to fight for it anyway. It takes more courage to fight for what you believe in. Even though it may not be what's socially popular. People need to realize how morally and ethically wrong abortion is no matter what your spiritual background is or whether you even have a spiritual background. That is irrelevant. Because, like I said,it's not a beliefs issue,it's a moral and ethical issue. I just ask that you read this with a clear mind and an empathetic heart.Look deep down and search your conscience. Especially if you are a young woman facing an unplanned pregnancy and are considering abortion as an option. It may seem like a good option to you. But, the child has already been conceived and, although that child wasn't planned, it still has the right to live no matter what the circumstances were that brought it into the world. Life is not an option, it's a right.
Some people aren't necessarily for abortion. They're just indifferent; ignoring the issue as if it doesn't exist or will just go away on it's own. Because they fear the backlash that comes with standing against something they are,strongly, opposed to. But,this issue cannot be ignored forever. And it won't end until more of us take a stand against it. Life doesn't just begin at birth.Science proves that life begins at conception. So,when you think about that fact, abortion is,basically, just a socially(and in most places,legally) sanctioned form of genocide. So,keep that in mind while reading this.
I recently saw a CNN report on a tragic story about a woman whose boyfriend tricked her into taking an abortion-inducing drug after she told him she was pregnant. The boyfriend is now facing first-degree murder charges for killing the unborn child. He told his girlfriend that his father, a doctor, had prescribed her an antibiotic for an infection. In reality, he gave her an abortion-inducing drug, and the pregnancy was terminated.
This story is undoubtedly tragic, and the boyfriend deserves to face punishment for first-degree murder. However, the undercurrent of this story is working against the tide of abortion-rights advocates. Note with me the inconsistency of the logic of our laws and of abortion advocates.
The pregnancy of this woman was terminated by her boyfriend, the supposed father of the child. Since it was against the will of the mother, the boyfriend is being charged with first-degree murder. However, if the woman had terminated the pregnancy herself, it would have been perfectly legal and perhaps even applauded by abortion advocates. Even if the abortion had been against the will of the father, the mother would have been within her legal rights to have an abortion.(Does anyone else see the contradiction or inconsistancies here?!)
Why is this a problem? The charge of first-degree murder implies the pre-meditated killing of innocent human life. It implies value in the life that is lost. In this case, it is the life of an unborn child.
What makes an abortion elected by the mother any different? The charge of first-degree murder cannot be levied against the boyfriend for any physical harm incurred by the mother. Instead, it is directly centered upon the loss of life for the baby. The attorneys may even argue that the life was taken against the will and rights of the unborn child. In the same way, abortions performed according to the will of the mother take the life of an unborn child against his/her will and rights. Why is it murder for the boyfriend to induce an abortion and not when a woman chooses it on her own?It makes no sense,whatsoever.It's ridiculous and sick. How can any logical,morally sound human being think otherwise?I think this story is only one of the many excellent examples of the twisted logic people use to justify abortion. Anyone with any thoughts on this?Please keep your responses limited to short paragraphs.Makes it much easier to give clearer and more acccurate responses. Then that will lead to an on-going dialogue. Which is why I write my blogs to begin with.God bless:)
