I have yet to figure out why the law will charge someone who kills a woman and her unborn child with two counts of murder, yet if the woman herself chooses to kill the child within her it is considered her right. Or better yet, a woman who is pregnant can be arrested for endangerment of a child if she is using drugs or abusing alcohol during pregnancy.
Seems pretty hypocritical! Those who say a woman has the right to decide what happens to her body will say the child is not yet a child, yet those same people will cry out for justice if that child is killed by anyone other than a doctor the mother hires to terminate the child.
If a woman is using drugs alcohol she can be prosecuted for endangering her unborn child. The same unborn child she has the right to have surgically killed and removed from her body. Yet if she goes to a doctor to have this baby killed it is no longer a baby but a mere fetus? What's wrong with this picture?
The child within the womb is just that..a child. When left to grow within it's mother's womb it does not become anything BUT a child. It is not just foreign tissue within the woman's body. It has a heartbeat, it has fingers and toes. It already has within it's DNA physical features of both parents. To call it merely a "fetus" does not make the child any less human, although that is why those who justify the murder of unborn children refer to the baby as a fetus and not a baby.
If the term "termination of a fetus" were with "termination of a baby", people would be less likely to accept this so called woman's right to choose.
When we make that life seem less than human we open the door to something dangerous. Hitler viewed anyone not of his lineage less than human. The atrocities that were done in the holocaust were possible because the Jews were viewed as less than human by the Nazi organization. Slavery was acceptable in the US because certain whites viewed blacks as less than human. We all know this attitude is horribly wrong and most people do not accept it. So why do so many accept the idea an unborn child is less than human until it is actually born? And how can anyone say, let alone believe this child within the womb does not feel the pain of it's body being destroyed?
Most abortions are not done because it is a choice between the mother or the child, or because of rape - they are more for convenience. Abortion has become the new "birth control". We are allowing the murder of babies for convenience. We have become a society that places more value on our selfishness to do what we want when we want than a human life. Again, it is a human LIFE.
There are so many people who want children yet cannot have them. Yet we are allowing the killing of thousands of babies. I heard a woman once say she would rather have an abortion than have the baby and put it up for adoption.
This is the height of selfishness. Taking the life of a child over giving it the chance to live and be loved by a family who would give anything to raise him or her. This kind of rational is just wrong!
It is my personal belief every child conceived is the will of God. God says in Jeremiah 1:5 " Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;" "Did not He who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same One fashion us in the womb? Job 31:14-16
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb." Psalm 139:12-14
Isaiah 44:2 "This is what the LORD says- he who made you, who formed you in the womb, and who will help you"
Isaiah 44:24 "This is what the LORD says- your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb."
For all anyone knows the person that could have found a cure of cancer was "terminated" because his or her mother decided it was her body and her choice and that child had no value. What if the person who would have found a cure for AIDS has been "aborted"? Just because certain people refuse to see any value in every life conceived does not mean they are right.
I realize there are those who choose not to believe in God, yet even if you do not believe there is a God the fact still remains. An unborn child is indeed a child. Those who say a woman has a right to choose to end her unborn child's life should stop using the rhetoric that "sanitizes" what really happens when a child is aborted/killed. If you really believe it is not a "child" then you have no right to support or insist on laws that punish other's for causing the end of that unborn life in any other form but abortion.
A woman has the right to choose what happens to her body, but that child within is not "her" body. It is a separate living being. IF you really believe in the right to choose, then choose to prevent that pregnancy in the first place. Show some self control, use birth control there are plenty of options.
With freedom and free will come great responsibility. Murder is now and always has been against the law. Call it like it is, the termination-murder of an unwanted child.
