A lot of pro-life people feel that the child should NEVER be murdered.
If a woman has been the victim of rape, then why force her to then turn around and murder her own child? That puts a double burden on her.
She's already dealing with being raped.
Why force her to deal with murdering her child too?

FF, would there not be a lot of resentment from the mother, raising the child of her rapist?

I take it that you're not a woman and haven't ever been raped?
You might want to read a little more on women's views of rape ...

Except in the case of rape, the woman DOES choose what she wants to do with her body. When she picks having unprotected sex, then she has chosen.
When a woman commits abortion she isn't aborting herself and she isnt' painfully stopping her own heart from beating. She does that to another human beings body - her child.

44soulslayer - it's not 'moronic' to have 'the child of a rapist'. What is 'moronic' is to force someone to kill their own child and to have to deal with all the mental anguish that comes with doing that. That child is the child of the victim as well.

As you stated 'except in the case of rape' thus removing the rest of your statement from the topic of this discussion. You see the difference right?
It's about a 'rape' victim and someone else TELLING them that they need to keep this child. ... Who are WE to say that a girl/woman should be forced to go through that?

The point is, people will argue on when life begins. No one honestly, in the pro choice world, looks at it as killing. They look at it as termination before life. If you want to argue that life begins at conception, you can, but then the argument will go nowhere.

I love how the 'pro lifers' are against abortions, but in favor of the death penalty. Thats not pro life to me.

if the mother doesnt want the child she should give it up for adoption.
