Thread: Cmmon sense about Abortion that ALL should agree on.

Even if you seperate any religiouos morality from this issue, you still have some undeniable facts.

1. We all have a choice whether to engage in sexual activity outside of marriage or not.

2. If we do decide to, we have more readily available contraceptive choices available in America than anywhere else.

3. If you chose to have unmarried unprotected sex, you show no respect for yourself or your partner. Hasnt anyone heard of STD's and AIDS?

4. If someone chooses to have unwed, unprotected sex and they get pregnant, they have already shown INCREDIBLY poor decision making. Why should they then be allowed to compound bad choices with another bad choice to kill an infant.

I personally just dont understand how ANYONE can justify this type of thinking. I understand that some people will bring up incest and rape etc as a defense of a womans right to Abortion, but come on. How many of the over 1 MILLION abortions each year do we really believe are due to those causes? In 2004-2005 there were 200,780 rapes ATTEMPTED RAPES and general sexual assaults. So lets say GENEROUSLY that 100,000 Women were raped... AND all 100,000 ACTUALLY did get pregnant which is IMPOSSIBLE. Still less than a 10th of all abortions would be being performed due to pregnancy from rape. Probably closer to 3%. Think about it.
