In 1973 the United States Supreme
Court decided that an unborn child is not a person. Therefore, the fetus is not entitled to the
rights guaranteed in the Constitution of the United States. In their course of making this determination
they refused to take up the question of human life. That is:
Is the unborn child / fetus a human being or not? They found themselves not up to the task of
answering this question. However, they did
conceded that its answer would be the determining factor could it be ascertained.
So let me ask the pro-choice
people of the year 2013, if the fetus is a human being, then is its life more
important than the privacy of the woman whose body is inflicted by this
parasite? If the answer is yes, then
should we not now, with the vast medical knowledge attained over the past 40
years, re-examine this question? Perhaps
we can answer it more surely than could the cowardly justices of 1973. Perhaps we could all agree that while a
pregnancy can be enormously inconvenient for the mother, if the unborn baby is
a human life, then we are bound to respect the life of an innocent human being
over the convenience of another. Do you
have the stomach to look at this issue anew with an open mind to medical and
biological facts?

Do I think a life is more important than convenience? Yes.
Do I think people should have the ability to choose abortions on the sole reason of convenience? No.
Do I think abortions should be totally banned? No.
It should be highly regulated and only used under very specific circumstances. Meanwhile the adoption and pregnancy assistance programs should be made far more viable for the convenience crowd and those who otherwise feel they can't keep their child. There are many people out there who want kids and who would be good parents but cant produce their own.
Assuming the stat on abortions of convenience are true on the website you linked elsewhere this should eliminate a vast majority of abortions. While giving viable options for everyone.
Are you willing to look at the question: Is the fetus a human being?
