As a foster parent for the State of Iowa I know this, the child always gets their own attorney to speak on their behalf, even if the child can't speak for them selves. Those who have no voice deserves someone to speak for their best interest. Gods eye is on those children even in the womb. My Heavenly Father will judge those who murder all his little children.


And you have decided to appoint yourself?

Does anyone seriously think that the young women of America are going to compliantly sit back and allow a bunch of conservative, middle-aged men wearing grey suits and sitting in Washington make the decision as to whether or not they will have a full term pregnancy?

There are quite a few women out there that are pro-lifers jgarden, one of the main reasons the left villified Sarah Palin was because they felt threatened by the fact she didn't have an abortion to kill off her youngest son...

I'm curious how this would apply to the mothers lifestyle. Would a pregnant woman who miscarries because of her alcohol consumption or diet be charged with a crime if it was shown that her unhealthy actions caused the miscarriage?

I don't care about their wombs, it's the child in their womb that deserves to keep living and not be murdered by an abortionist.
Fairly obvious you don't care about the women. They are only women, after all.

If the child is not living why is it growing?
So now volcanoes, stalactites, and the hotel they are constructing down the street are all alive?

Considering the person you are essentially mocking is a foster parent, I think you owe them an apology...

I fail to see what being a foster parent has to do with deciding that they get to speak for all unborn everywhere. And since I was not mocking them I do not feel an apology is warranted. Do you feel that all disagreement is mocking?

Half of all abortions ends with the death of a woman!

All abortions, ultimately, result in the death of the woman. Eventually. But then, the same can be said for giving birth.

ETA: Oh, I see now. You're saying that half of abortions (statistically) abort female fetuses.
