Alright, I have to say that I am pro-life. I think abortion is disgusting and very unfair to life.
But I have to ask all you other pro-lifers a question that's been bugging me: Why do you want to get rid of institutionalized abortion?
I've examined it this way: It's safter for people than going into back alleys and having rusty coat hangers and vasoline being used, only in turn to have those young women go to the hospital bleeding profusely (as one nurse reported) and on death's door. Do we really want to go back to that?
I think we should teach more in sexual education and offer up an easier access to contraception. Also, teach that it would be better to go to term and put the child up for adoption, that way the child wins out and the mother won't regret the decision as much as she would with an abortion. It kinda boils down to getting slightly more promiscuous people or having more dying/hurt people. I'm not saying that either one is moral/ethical, but one is the less of two evils.
