Quote by: Redcomet ok, yea, abortion's bad. yea, us liberals got that memo too, its not just you. instead of prohibiting it, why don't you let people make their own decisions about their lives. Who knows what circumstances they are in? are you saying that every single person who is involved in an abortion is immoral? do abostion clinics deserved to be bombed? why are we hipocrites when freedom and democracy are on the march but they are limited in our own country? you cannot force morals onto others, you can try to, but you can't make it a moral bill that everyone must follow. morals, ethics, and one's Superego does not work like that. you can try to convince people not to get an abortion but forcing a child onto them because they made a stupid mistake or had an accident even though that child is unwanted? what problems do these children face later in life psychologically? saving lives isn't as simple as banning abortion. in addition, people who are too old to physically have children have different views about abortion than a "teenage hipster." |
Well, why don't we just eliminate all laws that make it illegal to kill another human being? Why don't we just let other people decide if they need to kill their neighbors, or that ass that just cut them off in traffic?
Are all people who are involved in abortion immoral? I don't know. Do you think that all people who are involved in the premeditated killing of a completely innocent human being for no better reason that convenience are immoral? Personally, I think they are.
The laws that say that you may not kill your fellow humans have a moral foundation and I don't hear many people saying that they won't have that set of morals forced upon them, so it seems that morals can be forced upon people by society. There are plenty of laws that have their foundations in morals and people obey the law for the most part.
And the mere suggestion that it is better to kill than take the chance that a person may have an unhappy life is ludicrous. If that sort of logic stuck, all pregnancies would be terminated. People are unhappy on both sides of the tracks.
