Quote:What if the woman IS mature enough to make the permanent decision? Let's let go the example of the slut who attends your school for now and examine a hypothetical example of a woman in her late 20s. Where do you draw the line?
Someone who is 16 is just so close in age to barely being able to legally consent to sex . not mention they cant in most places marry without parental approval and Cant legally buy alcohol.
Someone in their late 20's would be far more likely given being mentally psychically fully developed to make a more mature decision, Like not using Abortion for contraception given the side effects like you pointed out. I think something your not getting here as well that Dmiller keeps trying to communicate , If she can get pregnant then she can also get infected with a STD especially being sexually active with multiple partners.
I think many that are squeamish about abortion might be willing to grant emergency cases , But have trouble dealing with it when it come to frequent overuse. To Christians it violates gods plan , Its the first time in history people have the ability to control human reproduction and even plan copulation, unless you mean castration the only old method around.Smashing Gonads was a form of capital punish right up to the middle ages , In fact the word testimony comes from testicles , Giving false testimony means they take your nuts away , The bible says Eunuchs couldn't be trusted.
OK..... I may have gotten off topic in the unnecessary history lesson sorry.... :o
but everything you talked about makes me wonder is what the near future going to be about ? Single people who have no faith in marriage no desire for family just want to knock up women all the time so they can have them riped out at a clinic later... lets all be thankful our mothers didn't abort us!
Makes me wonder if all that child sacrifice done in ancient times was some form of post birth abortion.
I think I had better stop talking now......
