I believe in abortion up to the 57th trimester. Children are a parents responsibility and if they want to end your life that's there choice. Children are parasites feasting off parents and its their life and their choice.

How Nomadic views rape victims


Less than 1% of abortions are rape victims. If you're jumping straight to rape as a justification for abortion are you conceding that all other forms of abortion are not fine it's just the rape you have an issue with? Or are you just using the most extreme example as an argument lynchpin because you're too intellectually lazy to debate the issue for what it is?

Dude you went "Women put themselves in that position!"

"Rape victims didn't."

"OMG Is that all you can talk about!?"

You're just blurting out tired stock replies. It's dumb.

You're also being dishonest. Assuming you're using the Guttmacher Institute research they looking into why people were getting abortions and only 1% said "Because I was a victim of rape."

Someone who says "Because I can't afford to raise the child" could still be a rape victim.

It's not a crime to drink and/or smoke while pregnant, but I wouldn't be opposed to it. Again, she purposely availed herself to the situation, it's her obligation to behave responsibly. These are the consequences of her actions.

I don't think she's obligated to do anything. The only consequence is she now has a choice, keep it or abort it.

Yeah, they could...but that isn't what the data suggests. You're just arbitrarily making up scenarios, without any evidence to back your claim, because the facts don't fit your narrative.

I haven't made a claim. Or constructed a narrative.

Jesus stop copying and pasting generic stock replies you've seen online where they don't fit.

Your research doesn't demonstrate what you want it to. All it does is demonstrate that not many women say rape is the main reason they got an abortion. Which isn't surprising.

Which is on you.

The point is you make the claim that it's on women to carry and give birth to the baby against their will because it's a punishment for their actions. Then you poo poo rape because you know the second you say "Well it's okay to abort if it came from rape." you've downplayed the "murder" angle and if you say "Well even though it came from rape she has to keep it." you've downplayed the responsibility angle.

Either way the entire "It's the woman's fault and now she has to live with it!" is such a harmful and childish attitude. It's lazy

I have continuously used the phrase "purposeful availment."

If a woman was raped, I can understand the necessity of an abortion.

If a woman simply behaved irresponsibility, I am less sympathetic to her need for an abortion.

I know. I just asked you.

Because I feel your stance is the most lazy and childishly inconsistent of them all.

Where you refuse to actually clarify whether or not you think aborting the fetus is murder or even that wrong so you can hold contradictory stances just to be a dick to women.

I don't see how you can say "Abortion is fine for rape victims." and at the same time say carrying the baby is an obligation.

You can't rationally square that circle.

Which is why you continue the laziness and evade my direct question

Can't abort an illegal immigrant and the same could be said of all religions.

But I'm pretty sure that illegal immigrants have birth certificates, just not ones in the country they're in. No one seems to be worried about European illegal immigrants either.

Absolutely.

To repeat myself from the other topic:



Look at what happened in Africa when the Catholic church went to the poorest, most uneducated, desperate people and told them that abortions are evil and condoms cause STDS.

What happened in the following couple of decades? Enormous spike on rape, STDs, unwanted pregnancies, children and death via childbirth as povety rose.

Know what stopped them? Atheists and humanists who while the rest of the world ignored the issue demanded that the Catholics stop lying. Which eventually they did and only just now began to curb it.

We're not in the dark ages anymore. We know what STDs are + how how to prevent them, we know the risks of poverty and over-population, we know what happens to communities that have children they are not capable of raising. The standard of life for them not only is small but it without exaggeration or hyperbole, is actually bad for soceity.

Giving women basic rights over their own body and repdoductive system is beneficial to the nation and ultimately the world.

And if the notion of killing undeveloped fetuses bothers you, then I'd say join the club in promoting safe sex and sex education, not the club that yells at pro-choicers for being murderers.

Imagine with me a world where the ONLY cases of abortion ever are:

1. Rape.
2. Mother's life is in danger.
3. The Contraception failed.

The amount of abortions would be so few, that it wouldn't be a big national debate. There'd probably only be 1 clinic in each state.

What changed your mind, @Borgnar?

a little Louis CK and a little logic debate in my head

but the more I thought about it, we're asking a woman to carry a baby and birth it

key word asking, should we put a gun to her head and force her to live healthy and birth the child?

it just gets ridiculous, it should be up to the woman how she lives and if she's actually wants to push the kid out

then i thought, but what if she just get a c-section or whatever then gives it up for adoption? yeah but how are you gonna force a person to get surgery? to get cut open?

so i came to the conclusion, whatever she wants is up to her

It's not about punishment. It's about responsibility for actions. We're not taking her out and beating her like we're in Afghanistan or something. Having a child is not a punishment, but it is a consequence of actions. If it weren't for a life being taken no one would care.

Pro-life people like to chant "my body my choice!" That's an oversimplified and overly broad mantra for an issue that is much more narrow. No one is saying a woman can't get her ears pierced, have her gall bladder removed, or even cut her own foot off. It's her body, it's her choice. This chant makes sense for those issues. Where it falls short is when that choice affects the life of someone else.

No one is wanting to punish the female. People are looking out for the interest of the unborn child. And that's where the battlefield is. The interests of the mother verses the interests of the child.

I'm not looking to convince you. But if your interested in the point of view of someone on the opposition, I'm providing it.

Umm, the issue of abortions being legal is not the same as piercing an ear.

Not everyone who has an abortion is someone who just didnt use protection and dont want a baby.

Some people cannot afford it, some people can be put in danger by having a baby, some people arent properly educated and scared.

There isnt 1 simple reason for people to have it. The other issue is that even if abortion is illegal women are still going to have them. So now instead of letting women have abortions in safety and legally, you know have thousands of women searching for illegal means to have them which can lead to things like infections, long term consequences, or even death.

People cant even agree where life begins. Does it begin at conception? Does it begin when the heart beats? Does it begin when the fetus is fully formed?

You're over simplifying a complex issue here. Not everyone who has an abortion is someone who just forgot to use a condom.
