Abortion puzzles me

My wife is 7 months along in her pregnacy and it's so amazing to me to see how new life is developing and growing. Even though the baby is still forming he responds to my voice and my wife's, it's an incredible experience.

Now I realize not every child has the benefit of being born to a pair of loving parents, in some cases babies are born to totally unfit and possibly unstable people. Then there are the cases where some unfortunate women have become the victim of rape and I can totally sympathize with why they feel the need to go for an abortion. But for the most part it seems to me that many people choose abortion because they don't want the responsibility. It's really sad, in fact it's downright heartbreaking because every abortion is taking away the life from a helpless child. Everyone gets up in arms when they hear of child porn, child abuse, molestation and any other atrocity (sp?) commited against kids but why does'nt that type of feeling extend to unborn babies. After all they're the most helpless and have the least means of defending themselves. 🙁

I don't want this to degenerate into a flamefest I just felt like stating something I feel strongly about and hopefully sparking some intelligent discussion.

Good luck with that.

Yet your wife can "choose" to "abort" the baby and you can't do a damn thing and it's sanctioned by the government.

Somehow the nature of the child in the womb has become dependent on how the mother sees the pregnancy. If she decides that she wants the baby, it's a baby. But if not, then it isn't.

And...here is the first post to start it all...
 
Arkitech, may I e-shake your hand?
I totally agree with you.
Sure, I can symphasize with people who were raped, but that doesn't give the person the right to end/prevent another's life.
They should be spending their time and money trying to find and stop the rapists instead on abortion.
 
Tell you what, you worry about yourself and stop carring about what the rest of us do mmmkay?

It's really none of your business.

Because I'm sure most women are having the abortions before the baby forms to the point you're at. Regardless, there's a lot of beautiful things in life. Some find insects or arachnids beautiful but that doesn't stop you from stepping on ants, spiders, etc. Or grabbing the can of Raid when those wasps nest near your house.

It's the baby's business. Too bad they can't talk, huh?

So bugs = human babies?

Exactly.
Can I go to a daycare and stomp on some babies if I don't like them?

Insects/Arachnids = Life
Embryo = Life

Your life = worthless. Sensitive fool, you're a perfect example of where an abortion should have occurred.

@Joedrake

You can if you wish, you will face the conequences however. Most people would prefer a cleaner death for a larger scale being, such as a pillow suffocation.
