1. This is not a balanced essay when you refer to "radical pro-abortion activists" - just a little biased?
2. How many of the members of state and national legislators who are suggesting banning abortions, listing them to six weeks, making traveling to other states to obtain an abortion illegal with heavy penalties involved, etc. are men and how many are women?
3. What are the current national adoption rates? There are many children who are not adopted then the parent(s) do not have resources to support the child's basic needs. Are you willing to adopt one or two children since you want all children born?
Hi Bonnie. Thanks for your questions, all good ones. Let me answer them one-by-one.
1. What would you prefer to call people who burn down and spray graffiti on such establishments? I think I was being charitable in what I called them.
2. I haven't the faintest idea what sex the legislators are, but does it really matter? What if they were all women? Does that determine the rightness or truth of the matter?
3. I understand that there are long waiting lists for adoption of newborn babies. But what if that was not true? What if I am truly a bad person who would not adopt a baby? I'm not sure how that changes whether or not abortion is evil. Either it is always and everywhere wrong to kill an innocent human being, or it is not.
But on another note, look at it from the point of view from the unborn child, is it better to not be adopted and be alive than not being given a chance to live? I think we should give them the chance to live.
I appreciate the dialogue. Let me know what you think.
I just love the argument that rather than run the risk of children not getting adopted we should just kill them. Seriously??? ‘Extra’ people should be killed??? Where does it end? Should we round up the homeless and execute them because they they don’t have a home? Should we execute people who’s parents dumped them on state governments as ‘wards of state,’ because they are no longer welcome at home?? God have mercy on those who think people would be better off dead than risk not being adopted!
