[QUOTE="Dirty, post: 343486, member: 6535"] JayKay, I appreciate the reply. A lot of good points have been made in the previous posts. I am not okay with 66 million murders/abortions. I’m not okay with even one abortion and I agree - life begins in the womb not simply after birth. When people say, “my body, my choice,” that is bullshit. It was your body when you chose to be irresponsible and risk pregnancy so you could get off. Once conception has occurred, it is no longer your body with which the concern lies. It is a new body - a new life. I fully understand that. I just am unable to forget or ignore that when the abortion doesn’t happen and the baby is born that the problem has NOT been solved for that child. You now have the human life outside of the womb and the potential problems have not gone away. Blessed is the child in that circumstance who is adopted to a wanting family or whose parents that chose life realize how precious that life is and nurture it, and blessed is that child who goes on to live a fulfilling life because his/her parents chose life. But that is far from the case for many if not most of those children. For that reason it is a lot bigger issue for me than just pro-life vs. pro-choice. Some people can take it and leave it at that. I can not. When you choose life, that child needs someone to be along for the ride FOR LIFE, not just through the pregnancy. I will be completely transparent right now: I do NOT condone abortions but it is a lot harder for me to read or hear about the atrocities that happen to children after they are born. Please do not interpret that as me saying abortions are okay or that they don’t equate to murder of a child because that is what it is…no sugar coating it. I’m just saying we have not saved the world and earned God’s good graces because an abortion did not occur. Choosing “pro-life” is a lot bigger than that. I do know, as Twitch mentioned, this conversation has gotten a lot bigger than what the root of Roe v. Wade is and also what the current judgement would mean. [/QUOTE]
