I personally am AGAINST abortion. I don’t think there is any justification for murdering a unborn baby, and a baby it IS. With so many kinds of birth control I can see why a woman needs go kill a gift that God just gave you. I’ve heard all sorts of reasons, what if she finds out that she could die? or what if you were raped? To those who consider these reasons for having a abortion I say to you, “if I were in your shoes, we can never explain why things happens but abortion is not an option in my book. If my life depended on it and I would die if I had the baby then I would give my baby the chance at a life and if I lost mine in the process then that was Gods plan. If I were raped and got pregnant than I would have the baby and still love it, its not that poor baby’s fault that his father did what he did and he or she should be punished for it by murdering it; and if I couldn’t live with the thought of raising a rapist baby then I would give it to a couple that wanted a baby and couldn’t have one.” I know alot of people would agree with what I just said but thats alright because I’m just not capable of murder.

I was in a pediatrics ward one time visiting family. I and most of the nurses saw what looked like a spiritual vision of a high priest walk through the hallways and into the room of a dying child. Later on I was about 12 weeks pregnant with a child who was dying an extremely painful death due to a cord accident. I saw a small bright light the size of a dove come straight down from heaven and go through the top of my head and settle down into my womb. It scared me, but the baby(we didn’t know she was dying) stopped squirming and writhing so hard and it seemed like she was asleep. The doctor kept insisting it was too soon to feel her kicking, so I was glad she was at rest. This light stayed inside of me for over a month, and then the light left the same way it went into me. She seemed to wake up and squirm again for a day or two and then things went very still in my womb. She had died.No one ever will convince me that God doesn’t care for the born or the unborn. My mother tried to have an abortion when she was pregnant with me but was glad when it didn’t work out. I am the one daughter she has that she actually gets along with as adults.She and I are extremely close knit. I have forgiven her, and I love her very much. She was as deceived as Eve was. We have all been deceived at one point or another by evil. This much I know…if satan can’t deceive us he can’t defeat us. I love my mom so much that I lead her to the Lord, because I want to see her in heaven! There is no person worthless that Jesus Christ died for! God calls any baby that opens the womb blessed.We must not condemn those who were deceived into having an abortion. They need forgiveness along with their salvation. There is a difference between God’s righteousness which is being forgiven and able to stand blameless before God and self righterousness, which is self forgiveness especially when the actions are inappropriate. We gain nothing by pointing fingers.Prayer for deceived people works wonders!

The idea that society and the media are liberal is growning quite old. Fox News is the largest and most watched news programming ever, and if you watch election numbers, popular not electoral, over the past 10 years, there are far more conservatives in the United States than liberals.

What's wrong with saving whales, or trees, or anything on earth? Shouldn't we try to value all life?

If abortion is legalised murder, then isn't capitol punishment the same thing? Sure the baby didn't do anything wrong, but both are still murder. Both are a person or society forcing their own will on another person's life.

To borrow from the great professor Tolkien, "Do not be too eager to deal out death and judgement." I think some famous philosopher said somthing like that around Matthew 7 as well.

Let us all protect and value all life in all of its forms and not pass a violent judgemental hand at any of them. Let's teach people to love, not show them a mutilated fetus and damn them to hell. If we do this, then we may actually change minds about many things and ultimately live in a much more peaceful world.

I don't think a nerve has beens struck here with this blog. I think this nerve has been pressed HARD for a really long time now, and I think it's a nerve that needs to be released a bit.

Here are my feelings on the topic. Hear me out to the end.

There have been six conservative presidents since the Roe v. Wade case that legalized abortion in 1973. Six men have stood on a platform of "abortion is wrong" and won the seat of the most powerful position in the world. Since then, however, none of them have made abortion illegal. If they were going to truly push for illegal abortions, wouldn't they have done it by now? Or rather, are they using your feelings toward the issue as a way to get into office? For this reason, maybe you shouldn't let your views on abortion be the judge of your ballot, because it seems like no one is doing anything about it. And don't hold your breath for a politician who's "truly sincere" about the topic. I'm sure none of them are sincere enough to push a bill that would kill them and their party's chance of future elections. As long as they have abortion, they'll have your vote.

Abortion is the termination of an unborn fetus. Most, espeically on this blog, believe that this is the killing of a human being. I'm not going to argue with that, your points are valid, but I will argue that sending someone to the lethal injection table or electric chair is also killing a human being. Maybe that human did something terrible, but doesn't the Bible say not to kill, period. Yes, babies are purly innocent, but still does that give us the right to kill another human, even if they've done something wrong? If you believe that abortion is murder, then capitol punishment must be murder as well.

Don't think of me as a raging liberal. Hear me out. Read what I asked and said. I'm not saying abortion is right or wrong. I'm just hear to give some additonal points to consider on the topic.

Legalized murder. It is ending a human life. Unfortunately our liberal media oriented society cares more about saving whales. It is very sad and upside down.

I have no doubt what God's view of abortion is, and I align my own view to match His. I believe that abortion is the murder of a real person whose life could have been yet another testimony to God's amazing power. I know full well that the common argument of those for abortion states that the fetus is just like a grasshopper or a fly; therefore it is not a big deal to end its life. This statement breaks my heart. How can any person dishonor God's creation in that way? How can one make a little child seem like an irrelevant insect? God created each and every little child for a purpose. Even the tiniest speck of a human child inside a mother is extremely, extremely important to God's Kingdom. God said that He sees every sparrow that falls from the sky… how can anyone think that it does not break His heart to see a being so special as a child be murdered at the hand of some prideful, heartless, and greedy jerk of an adult?
Christ came to this earth as a child. May God be praised that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was not subjected to this hideous sin.
I believe that any woman who is presented with the choice of aborting her baby must take the responsibility to either put it up for adoption or care for it herself. Life.

I have a great deal of trouble thinking of a situation where abortion is an acceptable alternative to nature. But, of course, we ought to never trivialize the difficulties of these situations; as far as I can tell, there is a lack of compassion and realism in those who generally protest abortion.

Scripture ought to be read and then followed. Look at James 1:27, here we find the true worshipers of God. In here you find those who take care of children who are parentless. Because of this, I think that the position of those who argue for a child to be preserved to the point of birth ought to be increasingly ignored, if they do not also burden themselves with the care of already birthed children who are not wanted.

a lovely woman spoke before a group. she and her husband were nearing retirement. she was so full of life & told many humorous tales of their marraige/life together. the most transparent part was about her college age daughter. one day she got a phone call from the daughter's room mate at college. tomorrow, an abortion was planned because of the embarassment of a pregnancy out of wedlock. the mother boarded a plan immediently and gave her support & acceptance. they both look into the eyes of this beautiful child & today oppose such an easy alternative to facing the unknown. abortion is the ending of a life, no many lives. i cannot imagine the saddness that would have endured in the heart of that young women had she proceeded as planned.

I really am not a fan of "internet debates" but I'll throw in my few cents here. Since I love teaching and preaching on the topic of evolution vs creation, I have a knowledge or two about this issue. I'm not going to go into the scientific facts because that has probably already been debated. I will say that 34% of babies born at five and a half months live normal healthy lives, and that surgeries have been done on babies while they are still in the womb at younger ages.

That's all I'm going to say for now.
