    Yea, we're all staying up late at night guessing what your personal morality is. lol


    No offense, it's great if you contribute to the conversation, but if your response is "I won't respond with my opinion",... then I don't see a reason for you to post on an opinion-based message board. It's kinda the point of being here.


    yes, b/c that's what i suggested....:rolleyes:



    i GAVE MY OPINION, clearly, 2x now. if you cannot decifer it, i cannot help you there. the choice lies with the mother. period. THAT's my opinion on it. my personal morality is not the discussion.


    but thanks for explaining that to me, i had no idea......


    what part of this:

    honestly, i think i made myself clear: it is up to the mother. it's not my place to make that judgement call and since i will never be getting pregnant, it's not something i would ever have to consider. i may think it's the wrong choice for me to make...but since i don't have to make it...i won't say what's right or wrong for another woman.


    do you not understand?

    It's wrong to abort period. But, honestly, I have no idea what you are talking about.

    People use religion to justify all types of things. I attribute religion making being gay as something bad.

    It’s not a bad thing to be gay is my opinion. So why would you care if your kid is gay or not? Because your religion tells you it is a bad thing.

    Lol. religion………..and uteruses should be kept out of lawmaking.

    I would love to see a mega-conservative argue this on TV. But it’s why you created this thread huh. ;)

    and obviously some people actually think people get 'upset' here by their words. i was typing in ALL CAPS for EMPHASIS...since you clearly missed my opinion offered 2x, and was saying i shared none....or didn't 'contribute' to the topic. :p


    posts like 'chillax' add soooo much tho eh? :D





    cate.....happy, glad and japanese? ;) what an interesting turn of events.


    abortion is legal. the 'reason's why one may choose to abort are their own. i think it was urbanhippie who best answered...suggesting should we be trsting for homosexuality in the unborn at all?

    how can you not know what im talking about. if one asks is it okay to abort if a gay gene is found surely its ok to ask the reciprocal question, dont you think? i mean what self respecting gay person would want a straight child? :rolleyes: whats so difficult to understand?

    Is it wrong to abort a close-minded, bigoted child if such a gene is found?

    Gays can't get pregnant without some sort of donor... who is most likely (high percentage) straight. So, that's the confusing part.

    But, as I said before, from my perspective.... yes, it's wrong.

    If a gay gene is ever found (which would be likely according to those who believe gays are born that way) the gay community and the pro-choice camp will most certainly split on this issue.

    That's the point of the thread.

    Good job! You get a star!

    Yep, with someone other than thier partners sperm. As I said before, the chance of that person's sperm having the gay gene is slim.

    That still doesn't answer the question of whether sexuality is something that should EVER be tested for. I don't understand why anyone would be bothered about their childs sexuality before it's even born.

    hmm i was unaware thats what was in debate.

    the question asked was if a gay gene is found is it okay to abort there was no mention of where the DNA came from.
