ABORTION does not occur without a PREGNANCY.
A woman is not pregnant until the fertilized egg has implanted and begun to develop into an actual human being.
I really get irked when people try to discourage women from using effective contraceptives by spreading misinformation like this. |
It is a human life at conception regardless of whether it implants or not. Effective contraceptions will not terminate a life, they will prevent fertilization of an egg by one method or another. Once the sperm and egg join, cell division occurs and it's a life. Stop getting "irked", get informed.

As far as bringing a child into the world who would even "probably" have problems - who doesn't have problems? A life is a life. |
I agree with you TP, a life is a life whether by rape, incest or any other method. I know a "rape baby" personally and he used to come to our club in the late "90's when he was 14. He was always a good kid, I had no trouble with him, he was in a popular band, he did NOT know his Dad then nor does he today, his Mom died when he was 15 and yet today he has a great job and is about to get married. Sure there are some bad kids from good parents but my point is that THEY ARE STILL HUMAN LIVES! This stuff about it's not a life until it implants
