In this poll I voted “in all cases” and even though I am Pro-Choice doesn’t mean I am not Pro-Life. My stance is not about whether it is murder or killing but standing up for a woman’s right to choose no matter what her choice is. This is about not having Politicians, government or even my next door neighbor having a say on what I can and cannot do. But it seems like in most cases the people that are against abortions are the same people complaining about people using Medicaid, food stamps, unemployment and welfare. If the choice is taken away from woman (of any age) are you going to be ok with them needing assistance of some sort because eventually they couldn’t take care of the child? Or what will you say to the child in a few years when he/she is in foster care because of abuse, neglect or the parent not being able to support the child or children they have? Where will the money for foster care homes that are going to be more overwhelmed going to come from? What is going to happen to the children that have already fallen through the cracks because the homes they are in are already over whelmed with children needing a home and loving parents? Once the child is there and a ward of the state and if not adopted they will be moved around with no stability till they are 18 (then after that they are on their own with no family support). The argument is always saying adoption but in most cases getting adopted it is not an option because he/she is not a blond hair blue eyed pretty baby (for example). It is called free will and no matter how "people" feel about this issue they need to allow each individual to make a choice for themselves because ultimately it is that person that has to live with the decision either way. Love the sinner hate the sin (right)?! By doing this and trying to make abortion illegal doesn’t mean there will be no more babies dying because like before abortions will keep happening but it will be very dangerous for the woman. We all have choices to make in our lives
To cheat on our spouse -or -Stay faithful
Stay married and work things out-or -Get a divorce and hopes the next marriage work out better
To drive drunk home from the bar-or -take a cab home and get home safe
Accept Jesus-or -Turn away from him
As I said at the start my choice of saying in all cases because when you take away all options except for the one you think is “right” that takes away a person’s free will. By making laws to accommodate religious beliefs where does it stop? Some religions do not believe in taking medicine or going to the doctor, vaccines, or birth control. This is why in the 1st Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion….. This is a very slippery slope and once it starts where does it stop. You can’t make everyone happy and that is fact. This is why people say separation of church and state because there a hundreds of different religions or variations on religion. So who decides which church or religion can make laws? Baptist, Mormons or Catholics? Then Church of the Moon wants to have a say too. Keep religion out of the laws. Picking and choosing which ones you want go by does not help. So are we going to start putting people in jail for adultery? No divorces either? Keep it simple when it comes to laws.
