it is not ok, nor moral to murder newborn babies, nor a human fetus...
edit on 1-3-2012 by ElectricUniverse because: (no reason given)
Nor is it OK or moral to tell a woman what is morally acceptable or not when it comes to HER body.

This has always been a difficult issue to discuss, but I will give you my opinion.
In a truly free society we have to allow people the freedom to do what they feel necessary. That would include birth control, morning-after pills and abortion in cases in which the pregnancy is in it's EARLY stages or in cases of rape and such. That is one of the downsides of freedom. Abortion is going to happen and we must all come to grips with that.
But abortion in the late stages of pregnancy becomes a real issue because that baby could live without the mother even when it is not fully developed. I think it's wrong.
Now when that baby comes out of the womb there is not any doubt no one has the right to "get rid" of the child for any reason! I don't care what kind of twisted reasoning these intellectual know-it-alls use to justify it, there is no damned reason to kill a child when it has made it through the entire pregnancy, only to be rejected at the very end.
So I say this is complete crap, and this no longer lies in the genre of a "woman's right to choose"!
By the way...what ever happened to the fathers rights? What if he disagrees with that sort of decision?

I'm not really seeing how it's anybody's business but the woman in question. Whatever her decision is, SHE has to live with. Nobody else.

The big question is when does the soul enter the vessel we call our three dimensional bodies?
At the microsecond of each of our "big bangs"...............literally when the sperm and the egg collide and a new being is created.
or
When the "fetus" is several months old and already fairly well on his/her way to being formed.
or
as some cultures believe a few days after birth, (I highly doubt because I have seen a still born 4 month old "fetus" an d and he sure looked like a baby to me).

What makes you think they are liberal? It's not really eugenics, but eugenics generally stems from more right leaning groups.
The soul does NOT enter the baby until the baby takes its first breath.
The soul leaves the body with the last breath.
This is ancient occult law.
