I agree. No law that ends with, "And then it's ok to kill the baby" is a just law.

In the link - good responses to the two most popular "exceptions" to pro-life:
The circumstances of a person’s conception can have no bearing on their humanity or their intrinsic human rights. If a child in the womb who was conceived in marital love deserves protection, by what rationale can we deny the same protection to a less fortunate but equally innocent child who happened to be conceived in the violence of rape or the depravity of incest? Can it somehow be acceptable to kill a baby because his father committed a horrible crime?

That same logic prevails in medical emergencies. Abortion proponents struggle to name life-threatening conditions that are remedied by abortion – pregnancy is not a disease – but even so, if a pregnant mother is in mortal danger, we shouldn’t, as-a-matter-of-course, discount the value of the child’s life in favor of the mother’s. If both are human then both merit all the lifesaving medical attention we can bring to bear.

When an expectant mother is fighting for her life, we should make every effort to save mother and child – the way a firefighter would if they were trapped inside a burning building – even as we acknowledge and accept our limitations and understand our best efforts might fail.

If the choice presents itself in this awful decision the Dr needs to be guided honoring both lives, and saving the one He can best save.

Dr. Allan Gutmacher of Planned Parenthood said, "Today it is possible for almost any patient to be brought through pregnancy alive, unless she suffers from a fatal illness such as cancer or leukemia, and, if so, abortion would be unlikely to prolong, much less save, life."

That's a bunch of nonsense- such a situation is not comparable to a fireman in a burning building. In most unfortunate cases, it becomes pretty clear beforehand that one can save the mother or try to birth the child and probably die.

I think you all have no good judgement on the matter at all because your bias is no longer pro-life at this point, it's just bias.

A mother can live and produce another child, or not leave her other children without a mother.
But you all don't think that far- you don't even want to acknowledge that fetuses were property in the Old Testament, as the rate of babies being born and making it past their first year was like a lottery anyway.

In most unfortunate cases? Name one condition, for which abortion is the cure.


A mother can live and produce another child,

Would you be willing to use that argument to support infanticide?

ALL of them. Life saving abortion is not as rare as you all think- you want all these women to walk through the valley of death to maybe save an unborn fetus than to live another day and produce another.

I think you all are full of it, and the only reason your church won't back down is because they don't want to contradict their past popes' ridiculous declarations on the matter. That's their religion, not the welfare of man.

As for these 'evangelicals', well, they're just idiots, plain and simple. Even the Earth being round is a major concession for them.

How about matricide :idunno:

And infant is a born child. A fetus is not.

Then it shouldn't be too hard to name one.

So... name one.

You want the name, place, and date of a random woman who received one :idunno:

Just your denial making you talk gibberish :rolleyes:
All you people know how to do is side step.

In a circle
like your logic.

Can you cite any instances? If you don't know of any, you can't say they're common. You're pulling it out of thin air.

No. Just the name of 1 condition, for which abortion is the necessary treatment.

The condition in which the fetus is causing a hemorrhage or rapid infection; a woman could bleed out or die of a fever. Among several other complications which can occur, none are new- the success rate of birth was alarming before modern science, and still modern science is not infallible.

You may as well stop the 'dumb act', it happens and you all are really saying that the woman should die. Stop trying to blur that reality or sweeten the issue :wave2:

What's the medical name of this condition? I would like to read about it.

No you don't, otherwise you would have already.

You all labor under denial, and that is why you get exactly zero accomplished on abortion.


Just because liberals managed to get far on arbitrary dogmas and emotion doesn't mean that Christians can do the same- stop being a bunch of hypocrites: in the same way the Left lost due to calling everyone bigots instead of making an impression, so to do you lose in doing things like calling abortion murder.

I've pretty much had it with people throwing themselves up on a cross- the difference between them and a real martyr is that a martyr actually makes a change.
You all simply make fools of yourselves.
