I just believe abortion is immoral whether a woman regrets it or not. I can also see why an unwanted pregnancy can promote depression - both good reasons not to become pregnant unless you're ready for the responsibility of raising a child.

Hell, the same thing can even happen if you wanted it and carried it to full term. Ever hear of Post-Partum Depression?

But yet you'd force that on someone because of beliefs that are extrapolated from a 2000 year of dubious authenticity at best? Shame on you.

I'm not a woman, but I feel that if I was in that situation, I would carry the baby to term. It's not the baby's fault. Under the law a woman can terminate the pregnancy, but I just believe it's killing a human being. I think we should be committed to saving lives. If you want to call me uncaring for wanting to save a child's life, so be it.

Except for that for the whole first trimester it has no more brainwaves then a tapeworm. Let me pose you this, lets say abortion is agianst the law ok? You are a judge in a rape case that is moving along very fast, only 4 weeks since the incident, part of your decision is too decide weither not the woman should be allowed to have a abortion. Now bare in mind that it is still a zygote, no brain, no sentience, not even a heartbeat. Do you force the woman too carry that reminder for the next 9 months, and quite possibly force her to stare in her rapists face every day while she struggles as a single mom? Yea I know you will adoption is an option, but is it really? How many couples that have the means to adopt will want a rape baby from america?

A woman is not always in control of whether or not she becomes pregnant. There is rape for one, there is a malfunctioning condom for another.

It's not that I don't have sympathy for a woman's situation. I believe that human life begins at conception and I just don't think those situations merit taking a life to remedy.

What business is it of yours if a woman you have never met has or does not have a kid you will never meet, either?

First of all, let's get this out of the way. You're assuming that I don't care about the woman carrying the child. Secondly, you're going on the false assumption that all, or even most women who become pregnant from rape want to abort their babies. Thirdly, you're assuming that having that baby and keeping it, or giving it up for adoption, would destroy the woman's life. Read the statistics and some testimonies from women in this situation. Personally, like I said previously, I think she should carry the innocent baby. Her life isn't the only one at stake here. As a judge, I would be required to enforce the law of the land.

[Mr Greene]

The number of women who have mental health problems after abortions is 25%.
The proportion of the general population that experience mental health problems is 25%.
Ergo; there is no long term mental health effect caused by abortion.

Secondly, you're going on the false assumption that all, or even most women who become pregnant from rape want to abort their babies.

Well that would be no. The assumption is that women should have the choice. How they choose is up to them. Should a woman want to go to term with a rapist's baby that's entirely her call. Making abortion available to her makes no difference. But if she doesn't want to......then she can choose to terminate.
