Is abortion child abuse?


Yes.

Murder is child abuse. Plain and simple. Many forms of abortion also involves torture which is also clearly child abuse. Just because it is unborn doesn't mean it is any less of a child.

Side: Yes.

It's not "child abuse" when it's not a child. If it hasn't been born, it isn't really a person. It should always be the mother's choice. It's HER body.

Side: No.

What about the baby's body? The fetus is not a part of the mother's body, it is attached to it. It is a separate body. And it is a real child.

Side: Yes.

Do you have any videos of people beating up their abortions after a night of drinking? Or yelling at them "you lazy, stupid, abortion! Go get a job! Or at least go get me another beer."

Side: No.

This is how blind you are. Killing is the worst abuse. Abortion is killing innocent babies and for you to suggest that is not abuse is unbelievable.

Side: Yes.

Killing is not automatically abuse. Euthanasia, police action, war, risky surgery, and self defense can all kill, yet not one of those scenarios is even remotely considered abuse. This demonstrates how narrow and self serving your paradigm is when you look at the world. You're incapable of testing your own claims against parallel scenarios. Indeed, that problem is common with all of you debaters hung up on religious moral absolutes.

Side: No.

It is child abuse to cut babies to pieces without due process.............................

Side: Yes.

Without due process? Tell me the law they're violating. Tell me where any legal right exists for the embryo. "Due process" isn't the standard which would win an argument on this for you.

Side: No.

Legally or morally it is neither physical nor psychological child abuse.

What is abuse is the many 1000s of babies, such as the 2000 ( two thousand) African infants who die painful and lingering deaths from starvation and/or disease ''EVERY DAY''.

It must be nice to be blinded by moralistic self-righteousness,and as a consequence able to smugly occupy the moral high ground in cloud cuckoo land and spew out a load of unrealistic and pompous judgmental drivel.

Side: No.

Are you that blind to no restriction abortions in at least eight states in America? The Democrat Party supports these abortions for any reason of viable babies that DO FEEL PAIN!

Go pull a rock over your head and pretend you have an ounce of humanity. You don't when supporting no restriction abortions. Now play the fool by claiming you do not support late term abortions while electing poiticians who support it.

I guess fools like you who say you care about African infants, are playing ther moral highground. Do you even have a clue your total double standards and hypocrisy?

For all the issues you care about, it is a compassionate people who care, but when it comes to caring for our most innocent vulnerable babies, fools like you judge those pro life people as playing the moral high ground.

SICKENING!

I consider you to be too intelligent to really believe the sewage with which you contaminate this site.

Come clean and admit that you are only winding up those who cannot see through your mischievous pretence.

Side: No.

While I agree that it is awful babies are being born into terrible terrible lives in Africa, the LEAST we can do is to protect our own babies either born or UNBORN by preserving their lives. Also you mention African (presumably black) your savior, Planned Parenthood's President said that Blacks are weeds.

Child abuse involves a living child. Murder is murder. It is you who is trying to embellish your statements with superfluous fluff. If you think using the correct word, murder, to describe abortion is semantics, I think your head is too big and you think too much.

Side: Yes.
