I personally think that should be upto the one who is pregnant. After all she is a vessel of the child. I do not believe government nor law should have anything to say about it.

I think abortion is morally repulsive. That said, I don't think anyone has the right to tell anyone else what to do with their uterus. Its easy to sit on a pedestal and tell others what they should do with an unplanned pregnancy or that they shouldn't have gotten pregnant in the first place, The reality is that pregnancy happens to people who find that pregnancy to be disastrous. The very young, the very poor, those who already have more children than they can handle. It would be nice if life was perfect and every pregnancy a joy full occurrence. Unfortunately that isn't the case.

It's wrong you're taking a human life. it has a beating hearts its breathing and it's moving, if that's not what people consider alive then i don't know what is.

I think that the policy should permit women the choice of having one. No, it may not seem morally correct to possibly killing a living being (although it also depends on one's definition of living) but I think that a woman should be the one who decides what to do with her body, not some old man in Congress or the White House

I believe that abortion is a tool God invented to make life better for all humans. I don't believe that abortion kills any life. In fact God invented abortion in the form of miscarriage and uses it every day. God does not kill in abortion, he simply transfers the soul to a new fetus and then expels the fetus from the body. We do the same thing under Gods watchful eye.

Continuing from DT's comment, there is a great book called Freakonomics which discusses this concept.

http://www.freakonomics.com/thebook.php

People should always be allowed the choice to have an abortion. If you are against abortion, fair enough, no one is going to force you to have one.

As previous answers have said, abortions will always occur (and have done so for centuries) whether it's legal or not.

You can watch the film Alfie (the original with Michael Caine) for a look at how nasty life was before legal abortion.

I honestly feel that abortion is imoral for the simple fact that a inocent baby can not decide to be born or not and did you know that a baby has a heart beat as early as 7 weeks of gestation and can feel pain at 11 weeks that isn't even 3 months. And it all depends on if it puts the mother in danger to gove birth everybody has a diffrent opinion. But this is mine

I think it is okay up to a certain point in pregnancy (like 4 weeks or something). However, in cases of rape or incest, I say anytime is right. Otherwise, you should live with what you did and suffer the consequences.

i think that there should be pro-choice. to an extent. i don't believe there should be partial birth. and i don't believe that a minor should be able to have one without parental consent. besides that, i wouldn't chose to have one, but each to his own. you do know what hell you've just raised right? lol


DT
We need more abortions, why else do you think the crime rate has plummeted.


GRUMPY
I think that this is a decision that should be left up to the parents involved. By this I mean the girl who is pregnant as well as the father of this baby. NOT the parents of the people involved. The ONLY EXCEPTION to this would be if the girl and boy involved were under 16.

I have a right to my own opinion.
You however have no right to my opinion.
I will sell it to you though for the right price.

I think the same thing that I hope you would think about the killing of a helpless baby human. It is an inhuman thing to do!

First , I think it is between you and God. Second ,I think it is between you ,the female, and the father. If you both disagree ,then take the situation to both families ,then to the church ,then to the courts (if not resolved ...in that order.
The father is part of the'situation/problem ,then he should be part of the solution. The couple should have discussed befoehand whether' they' wanted a child or not. If not ,then you should've been using protection. If you were and it failed, then ,go back to the first two sentences. If one of you stopped using protection without consulting the other one ,thenthey should not get the choice ,the other one should ,ie. if the girl got pregnant on purpose ,or if the guy was not using a condom because he was just to 'horny'-you play you pay. There lots of things to concider. If he wants the baby and she doesn't ,and it wasn't just his fault -being negligent to use a condom, then she should have the child and give it to him ....depending on maturity ,upbringing etc.

I read what the others said, abortion isn't murder, it's only murder when it's formed and has a heart beat, if you abort when it's still an egg it isn't really murder. If you were to abort no one can tell you if you should abort or not all they can do is inform you and advise you, it's something only you can decide because if you regret it afterwards it was your decision no one else's.

I was going to abort because I'm only 16 but I didn't in the end. He was born 19 days ago. I'm glad I didn't because he's lovely and the sweetest thing I've ever seen I wouldn't change him for anything in the world!!

Like it or not, abortion is murder.
What do you mean, if you have myspace leave your comments here?

I think it is a personal choice, not a choice that the government can make. I beleive in adoption more than abortion though. Many people would love to adopt a baby.

I am Pro-education/choice she should be well educated about what she is about to do.

I am against abortion. I however, cannot speak for the rest of the country. We must consider that abortion is an option that can enacted by the mother of the child. However it does involve the killing of another life. We also must consider the fact that even though it involves the killing of another life we must consider the fact that the life taken is not aware of the operation, only the spirit is. It can also be disputed that it is unlawful to take the life of such a person who has no say in the matter, but at the time of the decision we must remember that the mother is completely responsible for anything, harm or good done to the fetus. So ethically it is wrong but, legally it is not unlawful.

Prevention is definately the answer. Why would you want to put yourself through the physical trauma and heartache?
