What percentage of the babies from IVF are INTENTIONALLY killed - as in, they were perfectly viable and attached fetuses that are manually removed from their womb? Now, what percentage of babies are INTENTIONALLY killed in abortion?
Yes Tommy, I was raped, became pregnant and my parents forced me to have an abortion, all at the age of 13. Ironic isn't it how I didn't have the choice in either losing my virginity or the subsequent pregnancy?
At any rate, that doesn't make me a hypocrite, that makes me know exactly what I'm talking about. Who better to know than one who has "walked a mile in those shoes" and then some? You on the other hand support abortion without knowing everything it entails. I educate out of knowledge; you educate (if you can call it that) out of ignorance and are the blind leading the blind.
Do you suppose if I had gone to PP and told them I wanted to have the baby but my parents were forcing me to abort it they would have helped me give birth against my parents wishes? Nope! However, they would have helped me have an abortion had it been against my parents wishes. Ironic, regarding the choices they support don't you think?
As for the foster parenting BS, it's just that BS. I've already listed 6 things that I do to proactively stop state-sanctioned murder and back up my views, which is far more than you, Wenchy, or any of my other critics. Due to circumstances out of my control I'm not able to foster or adopt now; however, that doesn't mean I won't do so in the future, as that has always been my plan.
Still think I'm a hypocrite? I could give a shit less, it doesn't change the facts about abortion, PP, or Margaret Sanger.
Chain -- You really don't have to put Yourself through this and keep going to bat for me, and thank You for being understanding, kind, caring and loving a woman with so much supposed "baggage".
It's downright scandalous how a supposedly immoral woman like myself is the one taking up for the underdog/unborn/unwanted citizens in society, isn't it?
what is down right retarded is that a woman who leads a scadalous life is trying to prevent women from being able to obtain information on birth control.
Planned parenthood is about birth control. they may inform women who have missed the prevention boat about their options, but they are first and foremost about preventing unwanted pregnancies.
planned parenthood didn't do anything to you or force you to do anything, if you have lingering issues talk to your parents, and maybe a shrink.
I'm all for education on contraception, no problem there, as I said way earlier in this thread.
However, PP supports abortion and also readily performs them using my tax $ and that I take issue with. As I said, my past or my present doesn't change the facts.
You're right, PP isn't at fault in my personal case, the rapist, those responsible for Roe vs Wade and my parents are. I don't have lingering issues any longer, but thanks for caring.
I've made myself clear for anyone with any intellectual honesty, so I'll let you have the last word (you'd insist on having it anyway).
They also support education and awareness. They give women a choice. Have you ever looked at statistics for strict abortion laws vs. unrestricted? Which ones have the least amount of abortions a year?
In all seriousness, what difference does it make? I believe there are less "optional" abortions performed when they're illegal, but I fully admit there may be statistics (we know how accurate those are) out there that say different.
Knowing some will not make it full term due to natural causes, vs. intentionally killing most that would make it full term but life ended unnaturally.
Once it's in the momma, it's pretty natural.
Doctors don't create life. They utilize technology to assist people in creating life.
The inserting part? No, that's not natural. {But then, that's not "once it's in the momma", is it?
} It's an attempt to help life exist. Yes, with the knowledge that not all of it is likely to survive. Just like performing brain surgery, or some other low success surgery, where the attempt is FOR life, not against it, even with the knowledge that some won't make it. Or, of performing CPR - most people who have CPR performed on them won't make it - does that mean that they were murdered by attempting to save their lives?
