    I agree. I personally would prefer that a woman pursue other alternatives other than abortion but I don't believe that my opinion should govern her actions.

    No, we can't all agree on that.

    I do. And some anti-choice people do. But some don't. And that won't change.

    Very true..

    but don't be silly... everyone can't agree on this, but it would indeed be a good start.

    I am pro choice and against abortion.

    Nope.

    Everyone is pro-choice. That's a convenient term for the pro-abortion, pro-baby killing side to help them sleep at night.

    i want to know why you're against abortion. I know why people are pro-choice, but what is it about abortion that you don't like?

    apparently, we cannot agree about this very basic concept. hence, the 16-pages-and-growing thread i started just two days ago.

    and "pro-life" is an silly name, imo, since it implies that anyone who doesn't support picketing clinics and harassing the women visiting them is "pro-death". :rolleyes:

    :) That seems a silly question.

    I like people. I feel an obligation to care about and protect everyone. I believe the child/fetus/whateveryouwanttocallit should be cared for and protected just like everyone and everything else. It is a sad day when life is lost.

    sad but true...

    back in day, when I was pro-babby killun' I had the hardest time sleeping...I'd wake up at night, worrying about all those babbies I was responsible for killun because I felt it was a women's right to choose what she does with her body...

    now that I've reframed my mindset...I've been sleeping like a babby...

    it's THE PERSONAL CHOICE that pro-choicers are supporting, numbnuts. how much simpler does this have to be? good fucking grief.

    I personally don't like anything about abortion. I would only ever suggest it in times where the pregnancy is a risk to the mother's life or in cases of incest, rap, etc. With that being said that is my opinion and my opinion or belief should never be force upon another human being. As long as a viable human life is not being hurt then legally I can not oppose it.

    So you can't be against something and not be for legislating against it?

    And I thought from your past posts that you seemed pretty libertarian...

    Just be careful who you come across. You just may have to exercise the PRO right. :p
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    People really respect the opinions of those that resort to name calling.

    I'll take it a step further, they support the choice to do something that nobody likes?

    Yeah - I can be against something personally and not be for legislating against it, but not when I think that babies are being murdered.

    (but you're right, I do have a lot of libertarian leanings)

    are you saying you dont understand how someone can personally at a personal level...personally with themselves personally ...but only themselves because to you personally could possibly be different personally than another human being...how you could personally be against something and not think that your opinion should be made the law??

    how is this possible..what a fuckin concept...acceptance!?


    i dont like corn.... i think it should be legal...if i see corn in the grocery store...i move on without thinking to the broccolli or tomatoes. its very easy not to get caught up in it.


    EDIT: IM CONFUSED....IT HINK YOU MAY HAVE BEEN SARCASTIC IN YOUR POST... IS IT KNOW1 THATS THE RIDICULOUS HUMAN?
