That would of course be more effective if our government would invest in a program intended to teach kids about safe sex, contraceptives and whatnot.

 

Instead, we have our abstinence program, which is not only completely ineffective, it actually LIES about condoms and aids and other STD's in some attempt to scare teens away from sex.

Very true. Infact a majority of men don't even know how to put on a condom properly.

 

What we need are actual sex ed programs. It's disgusting how ill informed people are these days about sex and pretty much everything revolving around it.

What "lies " would those be?

Obviously, InsaneSith is ignoring my plea for an articlewhich states the legitimacy of the supreme court issue, becuase there is no article to back your argument up ,now is there InsaneSith? :dozey:

You know, just because he didn't want to scour the internet in search of a website to back up something that you yourself could research doesn't mean it isn't true or doesn't exist. It means he has other things to do with his time perhaps.

 

So perhaps you shouldn't be so callously tossing around such obvious flame-baits.

Heh I have to hand it to you guys. Before I read this thread, I thought abortion was wrong and that it shouldn't be done. But now I have seen the 'light'. :) It is nothing more than a bunch of cells before the first 2 months.

If I have read this thread properly, neither did you give any evidence to show that the fetus is a 'human' during the first 2 months.

I advise you to look at your arguments, and see if there is any evidence to back them up.

So technically youre saying that you only support abortion up to 2 months?

2-3 months, if you can't make up your mind by then, it's probably best you just have the child and decide to either put it up for adoption (please don't) or keep it and work another job or find a better paying job, ask parents for help, etc.

 

We've been saying this all along, you just don't pay attention because you seem to be worked up into your own "righteous" posts that you ignore a majority of what others are saying.

 

and about the superme court thing, I mean state level supreme court and it's been 2+ years since I've bothered on the topic, so pardon me if I don't feel like going over years worth of notes on something that hardly has any real relevance. Sorry to you too skin, I know you were itching for examples.

I see your veiw, I realy do. Acording to you, they don't have feeling yet, so therefore it is not "human" yet. I have paid attention. I see and understand BOTH sides now.

 

Just one questin, (i'm not arguing anymore, just wondering)

 

Why is it when a mother terminates a pregnancy, It is leagal, but when a guy slays a pregnant woman, it is still called a double murder? No matter how early it is?

I know you're talking about Scott Peterson there.

 

The baby was close to being born, that's why. They don't do abortions that late in the pregnancy.

That's all I can find for now.

 

You forgot the definitive source:

:D

 

Murder charges are normally politically motivated, based on the public outcry and the prosecutor's wish for publicity... so they can't really be compared with abortion issues on a very sensible level. But i've only heard of a couple of double murder charges, and they were late term.

 

We don't have coronor's inquests for every miscarriage either. :D

A chimp has a beating heart, human DNA and all the capabilities to develop into a fully grown ape (which by the way will probably be considerably smarter than your average current US president)... And yet we use them for medical experiments... And subsequently dump them unceremoniously in the garbage...

 

Food for thought.

The fact that these people are trying to appeal to our emotions proves they have no real reason to be against abortion.

 

Use logic, not emotion based arguments.

well MY logic dictates it IS alive, it has its own heart beat, it has its own DNA after conception, or the cells wouldn't split and multiply. It IS human, only smaller and not yet conciauss. (true it may not be able to survive without the mother, but a born baby can't either for they need them to feed them.)

 

The little ones are biologicly little humans and i'm done debating that.

A born baby is self dependent. It does not take a portion of the mother's nutrients. A born baby can live without its mother.
