No, they are currently in force in many states. >It is about the unborns right to live From your previous post you are OK with allowing women to kill the unborn. Are you changing your mind?

wmw999 2,587 #78 January 23, 2014 So who judges when the mother's health issue, mental or physical, is important enough for abortion? Obviously you don't think the pregnant woman should. There are limits now where the state steps in ( I.e. No abortions at eight months). I'm guessing you think they should be stronger. Question then -- does a six week fetus get a funeral? How about if the mother didn't even know she was pregnant? Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont know Wendy You know where I stand and my conflicts as I have taken the time to tell you that I believe in the babies right to live. That abortions should not be used just to get those who practice loose bad behavior off the hook I also do not think the state has a right to outright ban abortion I also do not think the state or the fed should fund them But my purpose was different here in this thread Abortion, in the context of this thread is NOT about hc To say that is all it is diminishes life as a whole because the unborn and children are the most protected we have in our society. At least that is what many say it should be but to argue it is a hc issue takes the supporter off the hook because after all , it is just a medical procedure Really? that is all it is? Sorry, I dont feet that is the way this issue should be framed. Those aborted mean more than that Those that support this have to take account for their position But they dont want to"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

GeorgiaDon 379 #84 January 23, 2014 QuoteSo who decides which rights are absoute and which are not? Jehovah's Witnesses' have a well-known prohibition against receiving blood transfusions, even if it means they will die. Their prohibition is based on their view of the sacredness of life. From Wikipedia: " Blood represents life[13] and is sacred to God.[14][15] After it has been removed from a creature, the only use of blood that God has authorized is for the atonement of sins.[16] When a Christian abstains from blood, they are in effect expressing faith that only the shed blood of Jesus Christ can truly redeem them and save their life.[14] Blood must not be eaten or transfused,[10][17] even in the case of a medical emergency.[18]" So Rush, how would you feel about blood transfusions being prohibited by law, even if that means you would be allowed to die of an easily treated injury, because one segment of society believes blood is sacred?

If you are saying "well, but abortions shouldn't be so common, and should not be used as birth control for people with no self control" then yes, you agree with most other pro-choice (in the real sense of the word) out there. I don't know a single pro-choice person who thinks that abortion should be common, or a way to avoid having to use birth control, or as a way to allow consequence-free sex. >I do not buy into this phrase being co-opted by the pro abortion group, which is really >what you support No. I am not pro-abortion, nor do I support any pro-abortion group using that term.

rushmc 23 #98 January 23, 2014 To all Just saying you are pro choice, without defining where you stand is a gutless whips way out So you are pro choice and you define this by saying I support the woman's right to chose You are pro choice Awwww Isnt that nice Well, it is nice way to think yourself superior and most of all, letting your ass off the hook But is makes you feel good and superior As I have stated (and had the guts to do so) this topic is terribly conflicting to me. And it bothers me that let myself off the hook. So, I have "settled" with myself at this I do not believe in unrestricted anytime abortion I also do not believe the state or anyone has unlimited power to totally tell a women is right for them So, my position is do not use tax dollars to fund abortion (another Obama lie) And do not use tax dollars to stop it either And I am disgusted with my own wishy washy stance on thisI also do not believe in those self righteous bastards who proudly proclaim themselves to be pro choice and feel morally superior Those people are whips and worse Take a position Man up I am not going let you off the hook "America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
