I Did My Own Abortion Because Texas Used COVID-19 as an Excuse to Shut Down Abortion Clinics

[Paulos23]

well .... they need to grow up .... abortion is legal ... as detestable as it is and no hope in getting it changed, even now progressing into infanticide ... I would support birth control rather than innocent babies being aborted as some kind of a convenience due mostly to irresponsible behavior.

I mean ... come on people ... which is better ... preventing pregnancies or killing babies???? Seems like a no brainer to me.

I agree, and it makes sense from the bigger picture. But some people want everyone to follow one narrow path.

You can't force people to follow the "narrow path" ... Jesus didn't force anyone ... nor should we. Christians are supposed to spread the good news ... people make the choice to receive it .... or not ...it's not a forced issue.

I don't think many Evangelicals feel that way. They are always trying to get biblical prescribed morality written into law. Abortion and contraception are the perfect example where secular and faith-based outcomes are drastically divergent.

Some people prefer to take all Birth Control away. To punish the woman for having sex. They should be forced to keep the baby or put the baby up for adoption. Or many Christians want it hushed up. Anyway, with that being said. Trying to get rid of abortions really do nothing now days. To many abortion options available.

well ... I'm for preventing abortion by access to birth control ... giving access to birth control doesn't mean people can not still purse getting abortion banned .... although ... I do believe it never will be changed ... it's gone too far already. Least-wise we can do better to curtail unwanted pregnancies by making birth control easily available .... and therefore less abortions I would think.

So what do you say christians ?????? Birth control or allow the murder of the innocents to continue?

It's a sad sad state of affairs ... His way is the best way to live .... but it is a choice ... choice given by the Lord himself. What a sick world we live in .... getting sicker every day ... of course He did tell us it would be this way .... difficult to watch prophesy unfold.

Not a chance--because the real agenda is punishing women for having sex when they're not supposed to.

I understand your frustration; I also used to see the world through a lens of moral decline and abstention of godly principals. As much as I empathize with how you feel, I cannot share that feeling experientially anymore. I am now experiencing an optimism the first time in my life concerning the direction of the world. I wish we could see eye to eye, but there is a vast chasm between theists and atheist when we consider human achievement, culture, and progress. We can however, try to understand each other with respect and dignity--even if it's difficult.

I would agree .... but not much of that going on in the world ... I am up in my years ... have seen a lot .... we aren't getting better ... still are some wonderful people on earth .... but society as a whole is in the dumpster.

I keep my world small .... small family ... small group of friends and stay out of the rest of the world ... love the Lord and build my relationship with Him ... gives me peace.

Nah, I think it would be best if humans would stop having sex entirely.

Yeah, I know of a few parents who should.

 

[Kenny'sID]

You don't get satire, do you. Nithavela's post was a satirical response to rnmomof7's dragging in the tired old "keep your legs together" line, not an endorsement of promiscuity.

I know.

Tis' you who didn't get it.

 

[Kenny'sID]

For those of you who oppose the legalization of abortion, is it only for religious reasons?

We just don't like the killing of innocent babies. For those of you who had to ask...Wow.

What should convince a non-believer that it should be illegal?

Oh, umm, I don't know...Common sense? Compassion? Disgust with killing the most innocent humans on the planet?

Those are your personal feelings on the matter, but understand there are other factors that people consider. Why do you think this is common sense? Not everyone does.

 

[Kenny'sID]

Those are your personal feelings on the matter,

Mine and, I'd dare say, quite few others.

Why do you think this is common sense?

Because common sense tells many of us we should not kill babies, To others, though unimaginable, to some of us, I suppose it is not common sense just as you say.

Not everyone does.

Painfully clear.

But, why? I know you believe all this--but why do you believe it? Why should I?

Nobody really likes the idea of killing babies. Most pro-choicers don't even like the idea of abortion very much, the later in pregnancy the less they like it.

But you've got a non-negotiable stance to defend, and I suspect that almost all the people who can be convinced that a zygote is a baby already believe it.

 

[Kenny'sID]

You can't teach common sense so, you are on your own there.

 

[Kenny'sID]

They don't dislike it that much.

Then I'll assume you don't have good reasons.

I Did My Own Abortion...

We are expected to have sympathy for this woman?

That is completely unfair.

No, it isn't. This is a standard leftist sob-story about some poor, oppressed little-girl tortured and upset because it wasn't effortlessly easy for her to kill her baby.
