I know I posted this elsewhere but I figured I through it up here.
You can hate me for this one. I don't care. The subject of abortion was brought up between myself and some friends. I decided not to comment because everyone in the room seemed to think the same thing and I wasn't going to fight a battle that none of us would wave any white flags to after hearing each others views.The way I see it, abortion is cruel no matter the situation. You can tell me that its the woman's choice. That's fine and I don't disagree with that. What you do is your business, no one else should really make your choices for you. I still see it as a cruel thing to do. It ranks up there with killing no matter how you point it out for me.The biggest thing I hear is, Its okay to be done if the woman was raped. I hate that as an excuse. Shell have issues. Having the baby will cause her more stress and problems because it becomes a reminder of what happened. I'm sorry but I cant see a baby as an it no matter what stage of life they're at. She didn't choose to be raped. The child didn't choose to be conceived, so I get lost on how its okay to kill them for something they didn't choose. We don't go around aborting women who have been raped because they didn't choose to be. That was the main agreement with the group who brought it up. They said abortion is okay in the cases of rape but not okay as a birth control. Fair enough, but I still don't see rape as a great excuse. If you don't want that child, its understandable. Killing it just isn't to me. Not with adoption agencies. It was said by someone during this talk that it'd be better to abort a rape pregnancy. That actually made me want to slap the person. Their reasoning behind it was that if you bring that baby into the world, it could have the fathers tendencies to rape. Any child could end up with that. Do we realize that more often, how someone becomes as an adult is due to how they're raise as a child? Weak reasoning, in my opinion. What would you do? You get knocked up and you don't feel you're ready for a child or you get raped, would you be so sure that you wouldn't consider abortion yourself? No. Plain and simple. Ive thought this over many of times. Case (1) I decide to have sex, (I state it this way since I'm a virgin due to choosing to be). I know the child risk. I know there is no birth control that is 100% effective, some come close but none are. So I know by choosing to have sex, I'm taking the chance of getting pregnant. So if that happened, I would see no right in me aborting my choice to risk it. No one made me had sex and I believe in taking responsibility. This child wouldn't of been planned but its not their fault, why would I punish them by death? In the case of rape, case (2), the more touchy of things, I still stand with I wouldn't. I know myself well. I know how I think, how I react to things, I don't think anything could ever make me kill my child, even if they were forced onto me. No, I wouldn't have chose this to happen to me, but again, that baby didn't choose anything either. It was mentioned, also, that abortion at an early state wouldn't count as killing. This one is in the air. Its a split topic on when to consider a fetus a person. Here's how I see it though The baby is made out of you. Even if they're not fully developed, they're a part of you. Its a part of you that grows into another being. Your child, your flesh and blood. So being I see it that way, I couldn't imagine killing a person who is a part of me. Has a part me in them. I know some methods of abortion. It makes me sick to my stomach, the things they do to abort the births. If the fetus is under 6 weeks, they normally do the saline method which burns the fetus to death. The fetus reacts to this too. Ultrasounds show that the fetus pulls away from the solution which is a sign of feeling. Older ones get their brain suctioned out. If a fetus under 6 weeks can react to feeling the saline burning, an older one can more so feel its head cut open and brain destroyed. This ruins the argument of abortion being okay because the fetus cant feel, by the way. Just thinking of what the child goes through on those alone, makes me ill. So thinking of being able to put a being that is part of me, flesh and blood, through that sort of pain and death is honestly unbearable to me.I wanted to get it out. My view on it. Some of the things mentioned with these friends of mine made me a tad sick so I thought Id share my thoughts about it.You can hate it, you can hate me for it. I don't care. I don't think its right though. I still think every woman has the right to choose what she does, whether I or anyone else likes it or not, but I myself think abortion is wrong and cruel. I could never do it, no matter the case.
