I will rephrase it then. Since you had so many bad things happen to you in your life, rape, abortion, etc; do you wish your mom would of aborted you knowing what you know now?
It doesn't seem relevant.
My life is my experiences.
Just what I thought, can't answer it. Too many aborted babies don't even get the chance to answer if they wanted to live.

I did not call you stupid.
Yeah you did and I hope you have nightmares of aborted babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I said "Let's not be stupid".
In other words - - - don't make unnecessary antagonistic comments - - like the one you just did.

They are not babies.
They are nothing - - therefore they have no thought on the subject.
OK - - I'M DONE.
I don't normally get into these type of exchanges.edit on 11-11-2012 by Annee because: (no reason given)

It is not a baby or infant until birth.
Biologically and medically they are fetuses while still in the womb.

As a matter of fact I do. You're exploiting their choice to justify yours. A woman who was raped and had an abortion is in no way equal to a woman who willingly slept with 10 guys and had an abortion.
The comparison is insulting to say the least.
I was raped by an ex-boyfriend. I did not become pregnant from that.
I don't see the difference.

Seems to be human nature to dehumanize these days. Not a baby, it's a fetus. Not dead people, collateral damage. Etc etc.edit on Sun, 11 Nov 2012 14:44:59 -0600 by TKDRL because: (no reason given)

If you're going to be very black-or-white about abortion then no one has a right to remove cancer from the body. Cancer is alive, it just has no awareness. You're a murderer for ending a life that didn't even know what it was doing was bad.
What about some of the states that have put into laws that life starts before conception with eggs or sperms. Should we start arresting everyone who is menstruating? Men who masturbate? Those are potential lives you are destroying right there.

Whatever.
Every woman that you know who used an IUD, The Pill or Norplant for contraception is guilty of having an abortion. They are no more or less guilty than the woman who takes the Morning After Pill or has an abortion through a medical procedure.
Take it up with the AMA if you are seeking better solutions.

Conception is when the sperm fertilizes the egg. That doesn't 100% mean a future baby because it only becomes viable once implanted on the uterine walls.
When you have a fertilized chicken egg do you call it a chicken already? Or do you call it an embryo or fetus inside of the egg? When an apple tree is pollinated do you automatically call them apples or just blossoms?
