5. I See It This Way:


For the record i'm pro-choice with circumstances (rape, mothers life and the fact that its a woman's choice).



Please don't get out-right offended, but I hope people get the point, if not comment, but do not be rude!

So I don't know if this makes any sense to you, but I believe to a degree that everyone has free will. God or Buddah or Mohammad or whoever-whatever isn't controlling what you're doing. You have a choice, you control your whole life. The thing is you have a choice who to live your life for. You can live it for you, you can live it for a supernatural being, whatever. As a Christian, though, I believe the biggest part is having God share in your life and living your life in a way that tells him thank you for dying on the cross and paving a way to heaven and eternal life. There's other smaller reasons, but I'll blog about that later.

I believe it's a woman's choice whether to have an abortion or not. I would not have an abortion, but I'm not going to go start an awareness rally or anything to conform people to my way of thinking.

By the way, you may want to check this one out: http://blogslothzs.blogspot.com -- there's a little debate going on about language evolvement you may want to participate in.

Blah darn it two exorbitantly long posts today, if you don't wanna read all of it I won't fault ya.

Hmm... First lemme say thanks for visiting our blog, thought I'd check up on yours and see what it was like..

Onto the subject of the post... I'm not sure I agree with you though :(...

Rape: While the child obviously wasn't planned for, and not necessarily wanted... I still believe that it is a life... Just because something happened through a crime doesn't mean that it still isn't a life

Mothers life: I agree with you here, if there is a chance for the mother to die then then abortion should be considered... For some selfish reason it doesn't seem right to me to give up someone who already has a life, personality, thoughts and feelings just to give birth to another person... I don't know why though

Womans choice: K, I'm gonna be completely candid here, its the womans fault if she gets pregnant outside of something like the aforementioned rape... Not insisting that the partner use a condom is just stupid, really stupid... there are way too many Std's out there these days... And also, if you aren't ready for a child, then don't have sex, it's not like someone is forcing you to have sex before you are ready, and if they are, then they don't care about you enough to respect your feelings and just wait till the person is ready (be it after marriage or before)... Wanting an abortion after your pregnant is an easy way out, when you become sexually active you take the responsibility upon yourself to have the child, put it up for adoption or raise it yourself...

Just my 2cents... which somehow got to be really really long, gah!

I concur with Nick...Koragorn, sorry. It is, in my opinion, irresposible to be having sex out of marriage. If you're not ready to take care of a child, then you're not ready to have sex.

Sex was created by God as a holy union of God, man and wife, and also as a means to reproduce. He also warns about STDs in the Bible. Originally that was just when he was warning against homosexuality, but look what it has become now. But anyway, birth control and condoms and whatever else isn't always going to work to protect the woman from getting pregnant. My thoughts are a little jumbled on this matter, but anyway.

I'm not entirely a sexist but not entirely a femenist so I'm not sure where exactly to stand on the whole matter, as well as the matter of a mother's life. I suppose that it is, to a degree, the husband's final say. But then isn't it the woman's life which she is free to give up for the sake of her child whom she wishes to go through with giving life to?
