No, obviously we don't want that either, Min. Which is why I said the goal of all this is to build a culture of life. That requires more than just banning abortion.
We need better care and support for women who find themselves in difficult pregnancies. Both during their pregnancy and after - whether they choose to keep the baby or turn them over to adoptive families, they should have financial help, medical care, and support every step of the way.
I suspect if these women dont feel so alone and dont feel like their pregnancy is an impossible situation, and if they think of their unborn babies as true human beings, the urge to abort them would greatly decrease.
It would be a process, but one worth striving for, and that should be the goal.
Sorry... it's an extremely sensitive and personal issue for me and my family. I shouldn't be on this thread, but couldn't help it.
I appreciate that it gives you pause, which is why I kudos it.. but I guess felt discouraged when I saw another post after that. Please dont take it personally. ❤

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
