Abortion debate.

If it were me, and my life was in danger and the doctor took the life of my baby to save mine without speaking to me or my husband. . .You better belive that I would press charges against that doctor for the murder of my child.

I would always trade my life for my child.


My stance on abortion: Nobody, and I mean nobody, as the right to decide if and when an unborn child should die. Not the mother, not a doctor. . . Only God.

You can not kill to save anything. No good comes from an evil act!
Now, if you are attacked, kill away. that's not murder. But if you end a life on purpose in order to do anything except defend yourself, you are a murderer.
The way it works is: You can't terminate the pregnancy to save the mother. However, you can perform a different operation that might result in the death of the child. It may be a 99% chance the child will die, but if you aren't doing it on purpose then you are committing no wrong.

[b] The doctor/mother does if her life is in danger, God doesnt exactly have a habit of coming down from his big palace in the sky and going: "Dont do this".[/b]

Consider this illustration,

Let's say you bring home a new baby boy from the hospital and that night there is a fire. Even if there is a good possibility you will die to save your child do you risk running into the fire to save your son?

It's no different with a new born. You believe that 95% of the time it would be murder. That other 5% of the time it is still murder. You are opting to save your own life or the mothers over the life of your son or daughter. Any parent worth anything would give their own life for their child.

All life is innocent in some way or form.

Dumb scenerio, just like dusts one about a burning car.

exactly what I said.

"Now, if you are attacked, kill away"

MURDER is wrong. Abortion is Murder. Killing is not always murder.

Dont need to. Its a dumb scenerio, which is out of context with the topic. Were talking about unborn not born.

Abortion is murder IF its done for reasons such as:

- I dont want a child
- My BF wont support me, so no point keeping it
- I want a career

Things along those lines.

Its silly to call aborted a baby, to save the mothers life murder, its extremist morality (IE: Ridiculous, and Over-Assertive).

Actually, murder is the intentional killing of an innocent person/child/baby.

If the baby is in the fallopian tubes, which is the only time the mother's health should be in danger (that I know of), there is one procedure, a salpingectomy is appropriate, though sad, but it doesn't actually kill the baby. It's a way that, if it were possible, the baby would be saved.
