Great response

My attitude is one of no abortion after six weeks, two months maximum. Anyone choosing abortion as late term as 6 months, for example, should be forced to spend five minutes studying the child they murdered

If all men used condoms or (for those unprepared to support their children) had a vasectomy, there would be far less abortions for them to protest about. Never mind men claiming contraception is the woman's responsibility --- just wear the condom or have a vasectomy and stop trying to pass the buck

Reminder for men: a few years ago a prostitute came before the court. She'd given birth to almost a dozen drug-addicted babies. Their fathers were her customers

Coinciding with that item of news was another, concerning babies and children with disabilities and other problems who were being kept in cages by the people paid to care for them

So out there are family men who go home at night and help their legitimate offspring with their homework, whilst in a cage or cowering in a filthy corner somewhere are their illegitimate children, products of three minutes in an alley with a drug-addict prostitute

Children born to prostitutes don't just conveniently die and blow away. Nor do they enjoy pleasant lives. Many drift into prostitution themselves. Almost certainly, legitimate sons unknowingly have sex with their half-sisters on occasion and very possibly more unwanted children result

Any man who's had unprotected sex with ANYone has no right to an opinion about abortion

Thank you for pointing out that unless your dealing with the immaculate conception, for a women to get pregnant, it takes two to tango. One of the two has to be a guy. For a man to be mature, he has to understand and not just give lipp service to the fact they are equal parteners in this area. You say a women must "stare" at the "child" she murdered. That sounds like the ultimate 1984 government I can think of. Being a guy I feel we have a hell of a lot of nerve telling a women what she can do when a man will never be in the same place.

I have to ask at what time does the soal enter the body. Many religious traditions say its at birth. I'm willing to be very conservative and say maby at three months. At the moment of conception I view an organisim with a few billion cells. Thats not a baby. Thats a few billion cells. We can drone on this issue forever. Lets just say I support wide spread and cheap (if not free) birth control. And yes I do think adoption is one answer. But to demand women take a pregnancy to the end? Women are not just baby making machines. They shoulden't be treated as such.
