So why not allow them to kill their children too?  


We have been teaching more and more sex education in this country for the past 30 years.  STD's are going up and abortions still happen.


You already agree that the woman shouldn't have a right over her body after the first trimester, correct?

This womans right to her body argument is getting old when you don't even believe it yourself.

 
 
You're just being repetitive and argumentative now. I've posted my perspective as honestly as I can and don't expect anyone to change their own POV or agree with my own.
 
Peace.

As with most people, like you, who support a womans right to choose, you base it on arguments which are contradictory.
 
You then claim that you personally don't like abortion.
 
I am simply trying to figure out these contradictions.
 
And as with most people I point them out to, you choose to end the discussion.
 
I understand though.  If I held your odd and contradictory stance on such an issue I wouldn't want to try to explain it either.
 
Whatever makes you feel good!  
 
Peace.

Damn it.
 
The old "he's running away" routine to lure me back huh ?
 
WELL IT WORKED !  Angry

Ok, the core contradiction that I think you're seeing is the "woman's sovereignty" versus the "unborn child's right to life". I tried to explain it earlier but apparently failed. IMO, the woman's right trumps the fetus' right early in the pregnancy. As the fetus devlopes and gains independence, it's right to life catches, then trumps the woman's sovereignty over her body.
 
How do we resolve other issues where two "rights" conflict ?
 
If they're contradictory, they can't BOTH win.
 
There has to be a line at which one outweighs the other.
 
Anti-abortionists draw the line at conception.
 
I don't.

I understand that.
 
You are correct, we draw the line at different points.
 
However, how can you still use the generic arguments about women having a right to their body when you don't believe they do past a certain point?
 
Either a woman has a right to her body or she doesn't.  You try to have your cake and eat it too with that argument.  If you truly believe a woman has a right to her body then she has that right at the end of the 3rd trimester just as much as she does at the start of the 1st trimester.

Well, here in the real world people make mistakes, poor and uninformed choices and even *gasp* reconsider whether they wish to bring a child into the world.

Want to help end abortions ?

Teach kids the facts of life and don't limit them to abstinence only.

Just making abortions illegal won't stop them. It'll just create even more criminals while giving the state jursidiction over a woman's body.


 
So you agree with the logic, which means you agree with the conclusions.

She never loses her right to sovereignty. The developing child's right to life merely outweighs it after it's developed to the point of being autonomous and independent. When it's still entirely dependent upon the mother for survival, her right to sovereignty over her own body outweighs it's right to life.
 
I think this reconciles the opposing "rights" as reasonably as can be done.
 
If the developing child's "right to life" ALWAYS outweighs the woman's "right to sovereignty", then she has no right.

I don't expect you to agree, but can you see what I'm saying ?

 
 
Please, forgive me for being so picky.
 
But, my last post to you was a chain of logic which ended in a conclusion. I know you read it becasue you replied to it, and what you said added up to agreement. Plus, you didn't try to blow it out of the water, either.  
 
But then you typed this stuff, in spite of the fact you agree that a woman's choice at this point is reallly avoiding resposibility for her real choice.
 
If a person of any sex were able to call the avoiding the consequence of any prior choice, a "choice", it would destroy our criminal and civil justice system. And you can't contain a precedent. If you've made an exception before on a principle, that principle applies to other "choices", too.
 
That particular thing hasn't happened yet only because some bright lawyer hasn't made the argument yet. And if a bright young lawyer clearly sees he can't make the argument, that proves the logic you're violating.
 
So, please, everybody gets to make free choices under our system, and a woman has sovereignty over her choices to use her body, but her sovereignty, like everybody else's, ends when faced with the consequences directly traced to that choice.

Quote from The_Black_Prince on Jan 29th, 2009, 12:34pm:


I didn't.  Please re-read what I wrote.  Were you there?  You just said I lied.  Are you now my doctor?  Were you at Shands.  It is amazing how you get around.  

btw, please point out where I said I was seeking an abortion.  

 
 
Here is just one of your inane posts in which you lied about Conservatives:
 
Okay.  True story.  
 
"So you are "pro life". But you really don't care about them once they are born.  My child ws born with a life threatening illness...meaning he has something that is pre-existing.  Now, I have made very good money in the past.  But, I too, came down with something disabling.  I only have so much savings and income.  My insurance covers me.  I am 49.  I have too much to have him covered by medicaid.  I can exhaust all my money keeping me alive....because he does need his mother alive...I am assuming you would agree with that.  But, the theory of conservatives is that he should just die....because I was irresponsible enough to acquire a disease that took away my livelihood and his insurance.
 
I find that dilemma amusing when you guys talk about being pro life. You really wouldn't care if he died just so he died now, rather than in the uterus. "
 
I'm not going to drag all of your lies to the forefront, nor am I going to repeat my contentions to your stupidity.
 
However, you once again have failed to answer the question put forth to you.
 
Cite one law, or even one example, of where the choice for life is between that of the babe, or the mother, where any Conservative has said that the mother should not have an abortion, or the right to choose if she should live, or the babe should live.
 
Do you think you can do that?

At what age does this become an unsustainable argument? If you take a newborn, and then set it aside, can it survive on its own, or does it still need nurturing?
 
And since the newborn is still entirely dependent on the mother, or some other person, for its survival can it then be killed?
 
Now, don't think this is such a "silly" argument. It has actually been proposed by some that such is the case.

I'm not sure we were reading the same back-and-forth but Mojo's point was very clear.  
 
Moreover, few are they who actually "like" abortions.  An abortion one of the toughest decisions a woman will make in her lifetime. Pro-life or pro-choice we're on the same side as neither of us "like" abortions.
 
I firmly believe abortions will be drastically reduced when we can work together to solve poverty, increase education, and reduce irresponsibility.  However, legal or not, abortions will never go away completely.
