It's easy to say no so long as it isn't your own mother, wife, sister, or daughter who is facing probable death because something is wrong with their pregnancy. And if the pregnancy likely is already going to end in a damaged or dead baby then forcing the death of both that baby and the mother is simply a waste.

Exactly. Mom has the right to be healthy. Abolitionists are so cruel...............................................................

Prolifers have grown to become moderates, and so that the followers can not see the obvious journey to prochoice, they've been branding them as extreme antinatalists and labelled them "proabortion".

Side: No.

Was the mother of your 1 and 3 year old facing a damaged baby ?

Luckily no. But that doesn't negate our family opinion and choices, nor our support for other families to have their own opinions and choices.

Side: Yes.

I believe abortion should be allowed for the health of the mother because a fetus in not considered alive even by medical terms. While I can see and understand the concerns of the other side, I strongly agree with the pro-choice side of the argument. If the fetus was indeed a live human being, I would be disagreeing right now. However, the fetus is not, in fact, a live human being that emits brain waves. By all medical terms, it is not alive.

Side: Yes.

A fetus is not considered alive even by medical terms so you say ! So how is it you came to be ? You were not considered alive until you exited the womb?

Side: No.

Nope. Women don't need to be saved by committing such sins, and they shouldn't be. You're blinded by anti-religion ideals, popularised around the Renaissance and the Enlightenment millenia later than Bible. I have Bible on my side.

This is my body. If a pregnancy endangers my health, I have the right to choose abortion.

Side: Yes.

You always have the right to do abortion, whether or not health is an issue.

You'll just have to burn in hell for an eternity for that.

I could paste all the quotes here, but they're about 400. It makes more sense that you read the quotes by clicking on the link. If you want to, read with all the context you prefer, or even the whole book, for some fanatics like to accuse us of putting things "out of context".

Side: No.

This is one of the best quotes for the purpose,

"In sorrow thou shalt bring forth children. ... Thy husband ... shall rule over thee." Genesis 3 16
