"that is utterly heartless & selfish, just as abortion is to me. There's no reason that shld happen."
Utterly heartless and selfish is making a woman give birth to a child she doesn't want for whatever reason knowing that it could ruin her life, just coz you don't think it's right.
"1.If she doesnt want it then give it up for adoption i'm sure there are plenty of people who cant have children of their own and will be GLAD to raise them as their own, your problem is solved. "
People are selfish and want a kid of their own, adoption is ideal but it wont happen. People want the "magic" of child birth, sadly.
"also i wouldnt have wanted someone to abort me when i was in the stage of development, think of all the stuff you guys would have missed out if your parents decided your were some speck of dust with no importance or value only equivlent to some microscopic scum."
Scum? Taking it a bit far. If my parents lives would have been lead to extreme struggle and ruin as a result of my birth then I wouldn't have a problem with being terminated. The thing is, you never know if you are coz you aren't a human yet. Ooooh all the stuff I would have missed. The pain, agony, frustration and despair in the world. Sure there's amazing stuff but missing out on the world today isn't a bad thing at all. BUT it's not missing out, it's stopping cells from becoming a child that would be born unloved and unwanted. It's selfish in itself to force the child to be born into a world where it isn't wanted and to be consciously treated as that speck of dust you refer to.
"When you abort you just dont kill a cell but the creatures life, all the things he could have gone through dening someone or something the right to live is the equivelent of murder."
Talk about blowing it all out of proportion. You kill the cells. You don't kill anything else. Just the cells. It's not denying the right to live because had it not been for unfortunate events ANYWAY, there would be no cells in development. Hence why abortion is a good thing more than a bad thing. You are taking it too harshly. Then again I don't have sanctity of life. I don't hold it high in value. I've got it, I use it. I don't worship it.
