Subject: That's the rub Author: glenn [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 07/27/06 8:22am In reply to: melissa 's message, "what is the world coming to when you get to determine what is careless and thoughtless" on 07/26/06 12:59pm "soooooo much easier just to limit my access to taking care of my own body then doing those things, though, isn't it?" I'm not making excuses. Just wondering. Poverty, health, etc are all issues that are important as well. However, in my humble opinion, nothing is more important than someone's life. There are no guarantees in life as you well know. You are right. A child (unborn or born) has no guarantee it will live the good life, go to college, get married, have kids, etc. But why are we as a nation accepting the fact that we can deny these kids from ever making it out of the womb alive? Because some mother might not be cut out for motherhood? Or gosh, I accidently got pregnant and a baby will only prevent me from pursuing my career. I dont' subscribe to feminism. It has many fatal flaws and is hypocritical. I don't mean to sound harsh. That's just me. When decisions are made to prevent "The Man" from sticking it to you and "We'll show The Man", I'm sorry but I go back to nothing is more important than a human life - born or unborn. Which is precisely why I can't support the death penalty. Who are we as a nation to decide anyone's death? I do sympathize with you Melissa. I agree there are many problems in the world that need attention. I don't believe that killing our unborn is a solution though. Infact it only prevents us from finding the solution because it has become the solution. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
