Would you support anti abortion legislation as long as it included exceptions?

[Mr. Shaman]

I'm very impressed that 70% of those polled said abortion should be legal.

This forum is very heavy on the repub side of things so I thought the votes would be to take womens rights away. Y'all give me a bit of hope.

Every once-in-a-while, it is possible for a "conservative"/"moralist" to GET common-courtesy.....but, don't go swinging any dead cats.....expecting to hit one of 'em.​

 

[Dr.Drock]

In the womb, if the child does not live, it is a natural death. It is not cut up and dispersed by man for the convenience or nod of a woman.

Should a "God's Will" law be put on the books?

A law has nothing to do with God's will. It should be man's law. Just call murder what it is.

So...........no, it shouldn't?

What about wars and the death penalty? Are those going against God's Will when people make the choice to kill and it's unnatural?

 

[High_Gravity]

Just let the woman choose whether she wants to get an abortion or not, case closed, stop trying to push your "morals" on others.

You are probably right. This is a personal decision that some women will have to decide and contend with sometime in their lives.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Return the matter to the individual states. Let them decide what is best for them.

No. This is a decision that can only be made by the woman involved. It is no one elses business.

Period.

Which would still be the case if it were a state's issue.

....If the state allows her to make that decision.

Poor argument.

It is God's decision whether a child should be born.

And who enforces God's decisions?
You, me, the government?

No one. Your heart.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Kinda curious where you guys stand.

I support states rights.

If we can have a vast array of arms laws, regulations and restrictions.

we can have abortion laws, regulations and restrictions.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight......she can't have an abortion, if you're not allowed to have a 30-round clip.

Teabagger-logic.

Amazing.

 

[Katzndogz]

Women should be informed that they have a legal right to abortion and abortion is the killing of a human being. If they are okay with that, go ahead. Post birth abortion should be illegal under any circumstances whatsoever, no exceptions.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

It is God's decision whether a child should be born.

That'd be YOUR God's decision, right???

You got the documentation (readily) available, where He signed-off on that????

[Mr. Shaman]

It is God's decision whether a child should be born.

So God decides who lives and who dies?

In the womb, if the child does not live, it is a natural death. It is not cut up and dispersed by man for the convenience or nod of a woman.

Ah, yes......

....Khristian-logic.

I'm betting He never shows-up to defend such legislation.​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

I think more often than not those poor women who don't want to go through pregnancy would just end up either performing the abortion themselves or through a medical loophole at a clinic or on the newly created black market for abortions.

I can't even imagine a way to convict someone for having an abortion either, would seem so easy for a lawyer to either say medically she needed one or that the abortion was an accident.

And one must remember that when abortion was banned prosecutions of the women was very rare and almost as rare for any doctor.
"She needed it because of medical emergency"
Add in current HIPPA laws and that will be used all of the time because the medical records are private.

Correct, so i don't see any way in which a law would stop abortions.

I think the end result would just be MAYBE one conviction out of every 5 or 10 years. The conviction of course would happen just to punish a mother who already had one.....

.....And, lacked the finances to (legally) defend herself.​

All of the prosecutions would be the poor women. Abortion has always been hush hushed if it was a woman of the upper class of the neighborhood.
That is the norm of the hard core religious right.
Do as I say, not as I do.

ooooooooooooooooooooooo.....should be!!!

I'm sure you can justify why it should be.​

Yeah..this was the argument for slavery too..ace.

....And, OTHER such....

....intramural-pursuits.

Interesting. He's okay with HUMANS deciding who lives and who dies, but outraged by the idea of God doing it.

I'm pretty sure no law is needed for people to just up and die whenever God decides it's time.

The last I heard, The Taliban was covering that job.
