I don't whether to laugh or be sad that some of you have convinced yourselves of the lies of the pro-abortion extremists.
All life has a beginning point. Your opinion doesn't negate that biological fact.
Deidre my love, yes of course a fetus grow, inside of its mother's womb. The point was just like a sperm cannot become a fetus without the egg and the uterin wall, a fetus cannot become a baby on its own. If you have a fetus outside of a womb it will not grow in its own.
I know but it is the way life is. No pun. The reason I lean pro life (and I hate that phrase because it implies I'm anti abortion which I'm not) is that I think it has a very dark side that comes with it. Not just for the woman who undergoes one but also for society. We don't believe a fetus has rights. It can't have rights technically because it can't live on its own, true. Or grow on its own. But that creates a slippery slope.
Where we start to view life in terms of only if someone can sustain it on their own.
When does life begin? I guess that becomes the question.
That's all I'm saying.
I've had friends who've had abortions who still struggle after over a decade of making their decisions. There is a dark side to it. For society as well
I guess we just feel the way we do about this topic.
