Open Response To Abortion Comments

Abortion: An open response to some comments

Politics are rather iffy, however, many people seem to only look at abortion as about the baby...

It is mainly about the baby. Everyone knows that . It's the baby that's getting killed in an abortion, not the woman. But many women are suffering now BECAUSE of an abortion.
The majority of pro-life people recognize and care about the woman just as much as the baby. In fact , pro-life people have done more to show compassion towards and help mothers who are struggling with an unwanted pregnancy than any abortion clinic. Christian pregnancy centers have been springing up all over the country for decades now, offering real help and compassion to women.

Regardless of what Obama said, or did not, I would not deny him my vote based on one "wrong" thing he said. However McCain, who is just a carbon copy of George Bush frightens me.

This election isn't primarily about the candidates. It is about whether we the people will choose life or death, blessing or cursing. It is about whether we will choose what is right in God's eyes over our own self-interest. Here is a strange thing. McCain frightens you but a man(Obama) who is PROUD to have enacted laws to protect infanticide ( leaving babies to die after they survived an abortion ) and who won't even grant the right to life for these babies who are born alive is not frightening ? And that "one wrong thing he said" (those are your words not mine) means that under his watch millions more babies will be murdered if gets his way in the matter. McCain has stood up for the right to life for all people both born and unborn.

Any man that is against abortion needs to consider the rights of the WOMAN and then the baby.

Why should the woman have a right to live and not the child ? Both are EQUAL in the eyes of God, and in fact, God places a special punishment on those who would mistreat one of these little ones. No one should have the right to end your life just because they don't want you. The baby is a separate person and not a part of the woman. Did you catch that. The baby is in the woman and being fed by the woman while he or she is growing prior to birth , but the baby is not a part of the woman, like a liver or a kidney. They are two different people. And one does not have a God given right to decide that the other one doesn't get to live. And by the way, it's not just men who are against abortion. I would say that the majority of active pro life people are women.


What about rape victims or low income families that cannot support a child, so they decide to abort the it in order to avoid raising a child that they cannot support. To me, as a woman, abortion makes sense if a) you are a rape victim or b) you are financially unprepared for a child.

This is a classic excuse. Let me ask you this. How about we just kill all the children that we feel are a financial burden to us ? That would free up our money for other more important things. No ! murder is wrong no matter if you are rich or poor. The rape question: Very few rapes ever produce a baby.And though rape is a crime, you don't murder the child to make things right.

But after all, if we are so concerned about abortion and are such "humane" people, why are we not concerned about world hunger; the unending AIDs/HIV crisis in Africa, or North Korea's regime in which citizens (predominantly children) have to cross to South Korea and avoid being shot to death just to obtain food for their family.

Pro lifers are humane. There are many people concerned about these other problems in society and are doing something about it. Are you saying that to be concerned about babies being murdered in our own towns and cities by the millions means that we are not concerned about these other people? Where do you get that idea ? Are you concerned about these things? Tell me what you are doing about them. According to your own reasoning, those children who are diseased and starving should be killed so as not to be a financial burden on their families or society. People who say they are humane but argue for the right to kill babies are the biggest frauds on the planet. And Obama is at the top of the list of those frauds.

If you refuse to protect the life of the most innocent and most vulnerable among us then you don't deserve to be the President of the USA.
