[QUOTE="Jonathan_Gale, post: 77345417, member: 450943"] Adoption is an exceptionally noble deed one can do, either giving up a baby for adoption or adopting a baby. The former a sign of trust in God, the latter a sign of shedding God's grace. Even if you just drop the cradle on the side of the road in the middle of the night, it would be better than to abort. Consider Moses, the intermediary between God and man, the liberator who led the Israelites out of Egypt, was adopted. Jesus, born of the Holy Spirit, was also adopted by his earthly father. Most women choose abortion over adoption due to their fear of pregnancy and childbirth, in the modern mind, pregnancy is a medical condition, and childbirth a medical emergency instead of a natural process to perpetuate human race, the concept is completely distorted. It's viewed as dangerous and life-threatening, it's inconvenient to their career, and it will ruin their beautiful figure - hello hair loss; hello swollen feet; hello stretch marks; hello saggy breasts. I don't mean to disparage any of them by saying that, but those are the justifications which I've often heard, sanctity of life is the least of their concerns. Traditionally, like the four seasons of year and the four phases of the lunar cycle, there are also four stages in a woman's life - girl, from birth to first period; maiden, from first period to first childbirth; mother, from first childbirth to menopause; and crone, from menopause to death. Please note that "maiden" is not equavalent with "virgin", the milestone is NOT first intercourse, but first successful childbirth. Childbirth is a natural rite of passage to transition from the previous stage to the next stage, but in this sick culture of female objectification, only the maiden stage is disproportionately prized and celebrated, because all the typical features of beauty are biomarkers of childbearing potential; but once a maiden does bear child and enters into motherhood, she is considered as secondhand, her market value drops. Think about Madonna and some other female celebrities, even at a crone's age, they still pretend to be a maiden and promote themselves as such. So, in order to save the baby, honor God and make right decision, this kind of mindset and value system has to be dispelled, we have to understand that beauty comes from the inside, while men look at outward apperance, God looks at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7). Beauty will fade as we age, with or without childbirth, and no amount of plastic surgery, diet plan and exercise program can fix that, only our character grows and lasts. [/QUOTE]
