'Life'
Tell us your thoughts on 'Life.'
1.
Folks who demand that anything that offends them, usually hiding behind ..it offends or informs my children, simply don't get that we all need room to live our lives..and to make room, even uncomfortable room, for others.
For example, demanding that fertiized eggs not be generated simply to tear apart may be a reasonable compromise.
In return, to demand that fertilized eggs left over from in vitro procedures and on their way to the incinerator not be 'saved' for research is a pig headed and uncaring response not worthy of consideration.
2. American freedom demands that I allow you and, by extension, you allow me to live our lives, within the boundaries of civilization, according to our personal conclusions, beliefs and ethical standards. Worse yet, if we allow the law into these personal areas of life, what happens if we are outvoted? If the law can prohibit birth control, it can also demand it. If the law can prohibit abortion, it can also demand it. Thus these are areas of our lives that we simply must keep the law out of. Nothing, save the general decency standards, guarantees me freedom from being offended.
3. Surely,balance is required in this matter. Possibly not all fertilized eggs should become human beings and the rights of the woman takes precedence . Equally, there comes a time in the gestation process when the rights of the fetus must be recognized. That is the position of our current law and I think it is a good compromise. I personally see no contradiction between being pro choice and anti death penalty. Everyone agrees that a new born infant is a human being and at that point being "pro-life" has its profoundest meaning. hpbs
4. States do not have rights--people do have rights and people move interstate. But prolifers insist pregnant women can't go near abortion doctors. Males go to doctors and have unwanted parts removed and nobody interferes with their freedom of movement. Prolifers act as if women must be penned in their homes and be forced to breed tithers to fund pro-life churches. A president must be impeached if that person bans female freedom of movement here, where all are guaranteed LIBERTY--including going where they want to be.
5. Not one Presidential candidate is an atheist and all are tithers. Prolifers among them are protecting IUPT's--In Utero Potential Tithers. All say they worship a God with no mother and no wife. Genesis is about money. It ended matrilineal descent so private property began to be inherited by firstborn sons. Jews can still thank God they're not women, even though each fetus begins as a female. Men start wars and kill people because no man's body is ever depleted as its minerals are sucked through the chord to create another individual.
6. Mobility of Muslim women is prevented when they must be accompanied by a male relative to go anywhere. Freedom of movement of all pregnant women is prevented when ban-abortion laws ban them from going to buildings where doctors can help them have life,liberty and happiness by ending a conception for any of her own reasons. It is torture to force women to bear offspring of rapists and incestors, brothel clients who rent women and never intend to be fathers. Roe v Wade stopped civil enforcemen of Canon 2350 that bans abortion and suicide, to insure ongoing sujpplies of tithers.
7. A person is not alive until he/she takes in his/her first breath. A person stays alive until they have drawn their last breath. After a person draws their last breath, and is dead, the body does not just dissapear. It takes time for it to decay. After conception, it takes time for a body to form in a woman's uterus in order for it to be ready to be become a living being with that first breath.
8. The state solution is a bad one. Not all women have the means to travel possibly hundreds of miles to obtain an abortion. We do not want more unwanted children born to ambivalent parents and the resultant social costs. We do not want desperate young woman harming themselves in attempts to miscarry. We do not want an increase in late-term abortions. The "let the states" decide solution will guarantee these.
9. One can be pro-life and pro-death penalty. (I am neither) Pro-life does not necessarily mean pro "evil" life." The moral argument against the death penalty should center on the injustice of it. Rich live and poor die. White live and non-white die. And, even more important is that justice is imperfect, which mean that innocents die. Nothing is more immoral than that.
10. Agree with Ron Paul or not, at least he is consistent. He is pro-life, anti death penalty and pro peace. None of the other candidates can make that claim.
