I believe when you have an abortion, you should be provided with all the education about pregnancy, & the development of the fetus at the time of abortion

As long as the fetus/zygote has not developed a nervous system (and therefore can not feel) or a brain (and therefore can not think) it should absolutely be legal. It isn't a "baby" as so many anti-abortion advocates would like you to believe. Two of the major things that make us different from other animals as humans is our ability to think and feel. A fetus/zygote without a nervous system or brain can do neither of those things.

Conservatives have been trying to force women who become pregnant due to rape, to carry the pregnancy to full term. They are pushing this also in cases of incest. The conservatives are also attacking the birth control pill because the pill blocks the fertilized eggs ability to attach itself in the uterus. However, the conservatives support industrial pollution to be utilized to kill the unborn, babies and elderly. They also support the contamination of babies by toxins and the development of disabled babies. Conservatives are also trying to repeal child labor laws. Allowing children to be in competition with adults for jobs. The children would be paid at a lower rate of pay. This would also allow for children to work even if it had a negative impact on the child's education and EVEN without the parents consent. So, if they take away the woman's autonomy over her body, as the conservatives are trying to do. As well as changing the definition of rape as conservatives are trying to do. Women will be forced out of the workplace in many situations due to safety. Destroy the unions as the conservatives would like and destroy child labor laws as well. You have the replacement worker at a cheaper wage. It also destroys the educational level of those children and allows for easier manipulation by the government.

I believe you're thinking of robots. You might want to look into it.

It is too often used as a form of birth control. Conception comes from a choice one makes. One should be ready for the consequences of their choices while always considering their actions.

Slavery was once legal, too. Doesn't make it right. Too many women are grieving due to their choice to abort their child. Too many men regret their lost fatherhood. When you are pregnant, it is not just your body anymore. It is the home of your child. When you kill that child, you kill a huge part of yourself.

What right do you have to tell a woman what she can and can't do with her body? You think you speak for that unborn baby but you don't! Maybe you need another lesson in your bible study class. You don't have the right to judge another person. Now sit down and shut the fuck up!

It isn't about Judging, it's about protecting someone who is too weak to protect their self. With the language and hate you are showing a Bible study might be helpful.

Don't punish the Baby to spare your own pain, it's not his/her fault.
Rape/Incest is less than 1% and that number is exaggerated because most young girls find it easier to say Daddy I was raped, than to say Daddy I spread my legs for a football player trying to make him like me.

With the language and hate you are showing a Bible study might be helpful. Only if I believed the pages were worth more to me than a roll of TP. You are judging someone for making a choice they think is best. Why does the woman's voice become to weak just because you think the unborn child has more value? With your logic you should be out speaking against grocery stores for selling slaughtered meat. Don't those animals need a voice are they not gods creatures as well? Christians are so full of shit cause you pick and choose what the words cover. You can't be uniform in your opinions because they are all based around make believe stories.

I absolutely love the ridiculous religious crowd who takes the stance of "MURDER IS MURDER PERIOD" and refuses to acknowledge any inormation showing why that is a false belief. Can you murder something that 1)Can't Think (Because of the lack of a brain) and 2) Can't Feel (because of the lack of a nervous system)? No, you can't. There is simply no logic behind calling abortions on fetuses or zygotes without a brain or a nervous system "murder". Its only tossed around by the religious crowd to make their ridiculous beliefs sound more valid and important. Look at the previous responses and you'll see that every single person who claimed to be against abortion offered no reason for their beliefs other than the absolutely false belief that something that can't think or feel is somehow a "someone" or "a baby". It is neither a "someone" or a baby, its a non-breathing, non-feeling, non-thinking mass of cells.
