Abortion is love

[Catholic_Lady]

Oh, sorry.   

I'd say you were lucky in the sense that you did not have to go through the procedure that you intended to go through anyway. I don't see how this does not make both your lives equal, though, as one person's luck might mean someone else's misfortune. Yes, I believe God created you, but I also believe in free will. I don't think that just because God gave me free will, for example, that everything I do is/will be morally good.

Are you kidding? I did have to go through the abortion. The *fetus* (not person; not baby) died in my womb, but I didn't miscarry so I still had to have the abortion. As someone who has had surgeries, tattoos, broken bones, aborting a four-month-old dead fetus was one of the most painful things I've ever gone through, and I'm not talking about emotional pain; I'm talking about physical agony. When I asked if I just "got lucky", I was being tongue-in-cheek.

But you didn't answer the question. If both lives were equal, and we both had free will, why did your god choose to let me get pregnant (even with no chance of carrying to term), hang on to the fetus for four months, let it die, and then have me go through the painful procedure of having an abortion? Where's the equality and free will there?

I apologize. I assumed maybe the procedure would be different since he/she had already died. Sorry you had to go through that. 

As for your second question, this is a question of why certain things happen the way they do if there is a God. My belief is that God is not a micromanager, and that He allows nature it take its course.
