there is no law saying you cannot get an abortion, you can get one if you want. Some families that are devoted to their religion are saying that you cannot abort a child, saying you must give birth to it. No one is aloud to judge if you get an abortion, it's none of their buisness. What if you have a long string of Family illnesses that are genitic like having Heart problems, or dying before 40? Or maybe birth defects.
I don't think it should be outlawed, but with restrictions. If it is not safe for the mother or child abortion is needed. If rape was an issue it is also needed. But if you created this being you should have to suffer with the consequence, or give it up for adoption.
I personally think that it's okay, depending on your situation. If you cannot physically support having a baby in you for 9 months, yes then it's okay. But if it's because you were messing around and not being careful... no deal with it. Don't kill the baby, at least after it's born give it to adoption, but don't abort it.
I suggest watching the 180 movie. Quite remarkable. Also, it is true that abortions worldwide kill more people every 2 months than the Holocaust did in 12 years.
Your logic is astounding and I'm ashamed that I've never came to that conclusion. I'm 100% pro choice, but it's a difficult thing to dispute because it's undoubtedly preventing life that could become a person if let be. I could care less what a women does with her undeveloped fetus, however.
I think education is the first step, got in a debate the other day with my friends younger brother. He sincerely believes that precum is more likely to get a girl pregnant than cum itself. Scary thought.
( My comment got cut off ) Go threw the emotional trama of having a baby of a man who raped you, Looking at the child every time and seeing a man who raped you. That being said, I think that if your baby isent going to live upon birth, Do not give birth to it and go threw the pain and let the baby suffer. I feel that people who just abort because there not responable for there actions who are to lazy to give birth and adopt are bad. Thats my thoughts.
I think that Abortion is an extreme grey area. I feel like saying " ABORTION IS A GOOD THING " is a horrible thing to say. I think saying " ABORTION IS A BAD THING " is also a horrible and just dumb thing to say. Abortion because your like " ZOMG LIEK IM A TEEN AND LIKE WE DIDNT WEAR A CONDOM SO LIEK, KILL DA BABAH " is stupid. I feel if you cant take care of a baby, Let a responable adult adopt it. I feel if your raped and you dont want to give birth, Go ahead. I dont think anybody should go
Well Dan - I love your mom to bits - I can see where your humour came from. You make some really good points however killing someone whether that person is walking or 'swimming' is still killing! I have a few friends who have had 'legal' [New to South Africa's Law] and backyard abortions. They are all messed up mentally. Somewhere deep down killing your own child even if you have never held them, hits home - and it hurts. However you are a man so.......
i talked about this video and your oh so logical thoughts on reducing the need for abortion rather than putting all energy into argueing who is rright, pro-choic or pro-life, in my english class, you have gained a new fan, my english teacher. a very wise man you are.
@Lilypad190 sex is a primitive drive left from our animal instincts. Some people don't think of putting on the condom, and they certainly don't think of abstinence. It can also be very hard to find someone to adopt the child when they do get prego, no one wants to be a single mom. Too many people don't have common sense, we can't force them to have children when they're too fucking stupid.
I'll be honest, I did not read through ALL the comments here (there are a LOT) but everyone seems to be assuming that the hypothetical fetus in question is healthy. There are cases where that is not the case. In fact, sometimes, those later in the pregnancy abortions are done not because the child isn't wanted, but because the child won't survive outside of the womb, which often is found out until the anatomy ultrasound around 16 weeks or so. Like Dan said, Think things through!
Dan you are my role model. I am 13 and I'm shocked about how you think these things through. If the world was full of people as smart as you , it would be a good world
Wow practical steps where a condom or don't have sex if u do get pregnate and don't want the child there are many family s who can't have kids or you could give the baby to an orphanage and come back for it when you get your education and a job
you are soo right!!! you truely have a great sense of common sense lol. we all should think about how to solve the problems behind abortion b4 talking about it itself
ps. NO, i'm not the dumb jamie who sent the e mail
Which would you rather see?An egg getting crushed or watching the little chicken hatching...abandoned by it's parents or growing up in extreme poverty or in an orphanage...with foster parents at best...becoming homeless and maybe right now as we speak going through your trash can.The majority of San Diego homeless people are now former foster children / orphans. There are tens of thousands of orphans in the US.You know how many there will be without planed parenthood. Adopt or shut up!
You're a Democrat, so you are Pro choice.... I guess you think the baby doesn't have a choice.... It's life the Bill of Rights say all peoples in America deserve liberty, life, and pursuit of happiness
I agree with you, Dan. I recently read the book by former PP director Abby Johnson, "Unplanned" and it really shows that pro-choice people and pro-life people should not be pitted against each other - after all, we are all pro-woman!
it actually like killing something hat never got to live a life
something your killing that has feelings, you may not know but its something that YOU your self kills and it cannot scream or cry but i say not tooo plus you can adopt? or anything but yes i dont like when people get or think about an abortion .
@iprincesswhale138 umm u remember when ure a fetus? no? exactly why saying it hurts it is false. it has no feelings. any baby can be the next einstien whether born from a homeless lady or a very successfull buisness women. it all depends how hard the parents push for the kid to do well in school and its health. and besides you really think that its right for that 16 year old girl that go rapped now has to take care of her own child???
@urepkingtarg1 Do you remember when you were a 1 year old? Just because you don't remember when you were a fetus does not mean that a fetus does not feel pain. In fact it is scientifically proven that an embryo as young as 8 weeks gestation can feel pain. And a fetus feels pain a lot more intensely. Have you ever seen a preemie in the NICU? It is painful for them just to be touched. Your argument is uneducated and makes absolutely no sense. As for the 16 year old, I am not pro life or pro
@urepkingtarg1 "choice" either, I believe if it really is jeopardizing the girls mental health and could cause long term issues she should have a choice. But I think it should be done early on and humanely, not wait until the 2nd or 3rd trimester and then all the sudden decide she wants an abortion. You know, there is always the choice of adoption. Do you know how many families would kill to adopt a healthy newborn?
I think it’s a very difficult and personal choice. A woman should have the right to make a choice about her body without being branded as a murderer, cause she’s not. Since when does an unborn baby have more rights than a living human?
@andiecupcakes A fetus does not have more rights than a person who is already born, in fact it has none. By the way, a fetus IS a living human. What is it a different species until it's born or something? The argument is whether or not it is a "person" yet, not a human.
@mary21163 What I was saying is that abortion is a very personal choice, and I honestly believe if that woman thinks it's the best choice, then let her do it without her feeling like a murderer. We don't know exactly the reason or the motives behind her action, and in reality, we are no one to judge.
Oh my GOODNESS I think I love you. It is not too often that I find many people who agree with me so much. I'm a Peer Educator with Planned Parenthood, but that doesn't mean that I think everyone should run out and get abortions. like NO.
I don't "believe" in it, but I believe that each woman needs to have the CHOICE if need be.
COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATION FTW. I get to go to my state capital and lobby for it on Wednesday. YAAAAY :D
damn.. i never thougth about it that way.. this guy is a fucking genius and the best bloger alive :) and... jamie must feel like the dumbest person alive :)
Wow. That might have been the most intelligent way I've ever heard anyone put it. Every time I tell someone I'm pro choice I always have someone, usually male, say 'Your going to hell.' or call me a 'Baby killer.' But these people aren't looking at the whole picture. It's like you said, It's complicated.
Oh and as a mother of three- It only hurts if you don't get the epidural. But it's worth it not to because you don't get back pain afterwards... ^.^
I don't have a problem with abortion- when most abortions take place it is very early on in pregnancy, yes some do take place when the foetus is more like a baby than a bunch of cells but a very large majority do not. The fact is when the foetus cannot support itself its not life because it cannot survive by any measure on its own. I do agree however that the limit of 24 weeks should be reduced as babies have survived at 23- none at 22 weeks however.
Also, just because a foetus is on "life support" does not mean that they are any less human and should have any less rights (After all a 30 yr old on life support would not automatically be stripped of their rights as a human being). I don't know if you have looked very much into fetal development, but if you have you will notice how very swiftly it transforms from "a bunch of cells" to a fetus with recognizable human characteristics
Abortion is murder. You're just killing a little defenseless baby who never had the chance to live life. I think, even though it's hard to give your child to another family you don't know adoption is the better choice. Ooor just don't get pregnant in the first place.
@3WIkidz and what about rape? what if the condom broke? then the woman is stuck with a baby she didnt ask for and youre going to tell her she HAS to have this baby? even if it destroys her body, ruins her economically, or fucks up her career or education. You dont believe she should have the right to choose what she wants to do with her own body?
@narutosramenbuddy im not saying she HAS to but all that is better than being murdered before you can see the light of day. Theres also always adoption then the child can actually have a chance to have a great life. :)
@3WIkidz im not saying you should always have an abortion just because you got pregnant, even if you arnt going to keep the baby. which is why choice is the best option. like if i were to get pregnant im not sure what i would do, but you should alway have a choice keeping in mind that not everyone will choose to have an abortion but its completely insane with abortions as a realistic relatively safe medical procedure to deny it from women who could potentially want it
@3WIkidz also there are a lot of drug addicts who get pregnant and absolutly would not give up there drugs for the sake of a baby that they are not intending to keep which means birth defects and mental handicaps these kids will end up in the hands of a governemnt that has no idea how to handle them.
@3WIkidz Not all babies put up for adoption GET adopted. I was in an orphanage and I met a kid who had been raised FROM BIRTH in orphanages and right now he should be around 18. He NEVER got a family. Not everybody is Juno, there aren't just families next door willing to take a baby. And some people are impregnated by RAPE, or INCEST or ABUSE. What then? Nine months of agony to give a child away to be raised in loveless orphanages? You care SO MUCH for children.
@StrawberryBoy100 You guys,this is just my opinion all of you have one for this suject and im just saying, i would much rather have life than death, @StrawberryBoy100 im sure the orphanage was better than dying, i agree i feel sorry for your friend cuz thats terrible but still most orphanges still take good care of you. :(
@3WIkidz Really? I know ANOTHER kid who actually hung himself at the orphanage. Seems like he preferred death.
Orphanages don't take good care of you, they feed you and give you a bed until you're 18. The other kids are all angry and sad and just... awful. it's sad and depressing and nobody tells you they love you.
@StrawberryBoy100 mmhmmm, yea thats terrible cuz it sound to me he didnt have much time to live his life either. After he was to old for the orphanage he could get a job and go to church. Then, i can i assure you god would make his life sooo much better and bless him in soooo many ways.
You should be happy you had the ophanage by the way cuz would you rather sleep on the streets not knowing if tomorrow would be you last?
@3WIkidz Church? Not everybody knows about God, and many of them pretty much assume there is no God after 15 or more years in an Orphanage. Lots of them hated God and thought he gave up on them. And coming straight from an Orphanage with few friends and no family makes it hard to find work. Finding a HOME is the first real priority.
I would've rather had my mother abort me like her original plan. I love God and all, but... sigh...
@StrawberryBoy100 that really sad...like really sad!!!GAH!!! your killing me with the depression of others:( i feel bad for all them i dont know how old you are but im sure you still have a chance to do somthing great with you life!! plzz go to church! If you do im sure people will be very accepting of you, especially baptist or charasmatic they can pray for you and it will give you so much confidence, it can be different for some people but who knows you could be moved by the joy they have!! :)
@StrawberryBoy100 if you just choose the right church,they will NOT judge you. i know in my church the people there encourage you and help you make the right choices and help you understand gods law and what he may be trying to tell you. im not saying you HAVE to but coming from what you are telling me you sound like you could use encouragment. Im not sayinf its wrong to be bisexual either.
@DarthKreeg it's a good thing you'll never have to make the choice cuz I'm sure you never get laid you stupid fuckhead. Your post was nonsensical and extremely judgemental. Oh, and I took a look at your video posts. Get a life douchebag.

I couldn't agree more. Abortion is not this world's major problem. It barely creates a spec of dust in this world. If people are so determined to stop them, they need to stop investing their money into rally's, signs, and other items going for their cause. Instead, now this is just a suggestion, invest the freekin money in stronger freekin condoms, more reliable birth control pills, and make both of them more affordable! Really, if we can make extreme weapons, iPhones, etc, why can't we do this
Yes, I agree eliminating poverty will help reduce the number of situations that can lead to unwanted pregnancy. But there ARE good towns and cities where rapes may occur. What should we do in that situation? I think it should still be the victim's choice.
The more I read about margaret sanger and eugenics the more anti-abortion I become.I'm all in favor of the day after pill since a fertilized egg isn't a baby yet,also 10% of abortions are of gay babies and once the gay gene is discovered that number will rise.
@BethisRad What a pathetic reply, a typical liberal/leftist response.Did I say I wanted to ban all abortions?No but stupid liberal/leftist morons only attack when the read something they don't agree with.Just so you know i'm an agnostic libertarian who is very pro gay rights,i'm not some right wing neo con douchebag.And lastly go fuck yourself!
i'm pro-life, and i know plenty of people who are pro-choice that want abortion to be legal for completely legitimate reason. But i'm pro-life because where i live, there are rich wives getting abortions all the time just because they dont want a kid. They are completely capable of raising a child in an incredibly nice living style, but they dont feel like having a kid so instead of using protection like a smart person, they just have sex and then get an abortion if they get pregnant.
I am pro-choice. I wouldn't, personally, have an abortion, but I believe women should have the choice. But, I don't thing it should be used as a way to not take responsibility for your actions. But in cases such as rape or if there is a very strong chance that the woman could die in childbirth they should be allowed to have an abortion.
Like I have a lot of sex and usually don't use a rubber cuz sex is better when a guy is cuming really hard cuz he's filling me up. So like what else is there to do? I could have a hundred babies and live on welfare and they could join a gang and kill people for drugs. Or I could use the morning after pill. So fuck you cuz if I see somebody I want to fuck I'm gonna fuck em.
@MellowChaos Well like where I am is whut I am. I wuz at a party and reelly drunk and these girls said "let's make her one of us". Since then I luv threesomes especially when I'm getting fucked and a girl is going down on me or a girl has her bush in my face and is taking a hot piss. Now that's good taste!
It is murder mite as well get a gun and shoot yur child.. But yur comparing yur self to an animal.. That's beyond "dumb" it is a rite to have sex but illegal if yur a. Minor and it's mostly minors who abort.. Sex is not bad I hav sex but don't abuse the rite cause yur actions today mite burn yur ass tomarrow
You're the one who brought up animals when you made the false statement that "animals don't kill their children".
Well, humans ARE animals. Plenty of non-human animals (lions, crocodiles, apes) routinely kill not only the offspring of other animals but if they are hungry enough they will eat their own. Animals don't have "children", btw. Do you know how horrific life can be for a child that has been put up for adoption? Do you think anything through before saying it?
"It is murder mite as well get a gun and shoot yur child.."
Bullshit. There is a world of difference between shooting a perfectly formed person and preventing a blastocyst from forming. Also, children have always been abused physically and objectified sexually - this is the norm. (Look it up.) I'm not pro-child abuse, by any stretch of the imagination, but something has caused us to approach children very differently in modern cultures. In other words, these sentiments are new...
@DaViNee16 Actually many animals do kill there children, and why would you give up your child if you can afford to raise it. Also if you want to have sex, have sex. It's your right to do so. You should, however, always use protection. Abortion should be used in a worse case scenario, but is not murder.
My wife and I have been trying to have a baby for 4 years and just found out we never can! we would be honored to have someone instead of aborting it give a baby of theirs to us! there are soooo many people out there in our situation! Please dont get an abortion contact us we would love to talk to you 863-326-1472 or email my wife its amandypoo@gmail.com her name is amanda
@misscrazycutie1 we live in a sick world, people hunt deer, stuff their heads and nail them above their 50'' television and call it sport. whats really sick is seeing children grow up in broken homes with parents that resent them, or cant afford to keep them fred. whats really sick in that in the world there are millions of street kids begging for food, or joining gangs and killing to stay fed.if abortion was illegal it would still be done dangerously in back allies with coathangers and spatulas
@misscrazycutie1 What about if someone was raped and they don't want to live with the reminder? What if they wouldn't be a suitable mother? What if their body wasn't able to go through childbirth?
@MrsDepp0509 I believe everything is decided by God, and I also believe that in case of rape, there is adoption, if you were rapped, it will traumatize you and as much as you may not think it, abortions are equally tramatizing, but they really are. CAS or CPS (wherever your from) can take care of children and even make them better off if they dont have suitable mothers. If your body isn't able there are c-sections. Sex is for procreation, not ONLY physical pleasure, babies are gifts, not curses.
@MrsDepp0509 i am completely sympathetic to rape victims. i understand that they never intended on getting pregnant, but i also beg the question is it the baby's fault? also, i i don't think that we should regard the baby's life as more important than the mother's and if we can only save one, i support saving the mother. pro-lifers don't all disregard those two things. it's just that when a woman gets pregnant and she wants an abortion because a baby would be inconvenient, i think that's wrong.
@Speegs23 Its not even another living human being when it's aborted. And if it is aborted, it could contribute to stem cell research and many other things that could help humanity.
@MrsDepp0509 your logical fallacies are many and your presumptions ill informed. Most abortions are in the third trimester, the child is a viable life form by any standard, the new argument is not the humanity of the child in the womb but semantically now abortionists have shifted to the rather metaphysical assertion of pershood or lack thereof, completely artificial just liek your platitudes. Secondly embryonic stem cells are bad science as adult stem cells have been found superior, so why kill
@MrsDepp0509 The last reason is the only valid one in my opinion. That 'reminder' is a human life; something that shouldn't be discarded simply because it makes a girl feel uncomfortable. If they wouldn't be a suitable mother, they could always check with adoption options before inserting the coathanger.
@misscrazycutie1 a good life to live? yah, nothing like 15 yo mum and dad who either go to school or go to work on minimum wage. when two children have a child, three children get hurt. even if the child grows up fine. what about the parents who gave up their lives with no full education and no youth.
and most of the time the baby isnt even alive and there is no heart beat (most of the time)
@misscrazycutie1 you have a lot to learn about situations people have. like dan said, no one wants to kill their baby. but sometimes they arent as fortunate as you.
continued... to me it would be denying someone a chance at life. i would always wonder what type of person the child would have been. would it look like me? would it look like it's father? and besides.. what about ADOPTION!? as far as i've read down these comments (which isn't very far please forgive me) no one has mentioned adoption. i feel like if you consider yourself old & mature enough to have sex you need to be able to deal with the consequences.
Your comment could easily be applied to the potential life lost during masturbation. It's your genes. It's part of you. What would the child have been like? Same deal. Why is this different?
and as for everyone arguing the point of "a fetus isn't a person" hey, that's up to you. personally as a 16 year old.. i don't believe that if I got pregnant i would be ready to be a mother... but i also wouldn't be able to get an abortion. because i would see the child as part of me. even at the fetal stage it is part of me. half of it's genes are FROM me. it simply wouldn't sit well with my conscience knowing that i killed what would have been my child EVEN at the fetal stage.
soooooo i think you should stay out of my brain.. because i couldn't agree with you more. all this Pro-Life, Pro-Choice nonsense is ridiculous. we're fighting each other and nothing is going to get solved because of it!
@Majicjj You seem to confuse a baby fetus as a "someone" when it's not a full, autonomous human being. Yes, a fetus is living, but it is only a "potential" person, not a person in its entirety, thus meaning it has no real rights that are violated when aborting them. It'd be pretty similar to just squashing a spider or swatting a fly.
well...my mum had abortion like 2 years ago because no one of us wanted the baby..i don't think that on her second week of pregnancy the baby was a person..i also think that it saved it from a cruel world...because i can see that my aunt who kept both babies is now divorced and my cousins depressed...so...the point is that you're old enough,careful and able to keep a baby..otherwise,abortion is a good solution for both mother and fetus...
What about PBA? (partial birth abortion) a FULL term baby who CAN SURVIVE on it's own getting stuck in the neck with scissors. Half hanging out of it's mom, moving and FULLY ALIVE AND AWARE and can very much feel pain.
Is that a person?
Or how about the babies that LIVED despite an abortion attempt and were left to die anyway?
@CalebLeBlanc did you do all that hard hitting data reaserch in your ass? if you have an abortion, or preform an abortion, are you charged with a crime?
@Attackoftheluls I do get it. You dont get to detirmine whether someone lives or dies, EVEN IF THAT LIFE IS GROWING INSIDE OF YOU! And if a doctor says delivering the child will likely kill you, maybe then would I understand an abortion. Thats the only logical case for one though, and in the same situation, I myself would still go through with the delivery, unless the chance of death was 100 percent.
I was really impressed by how rational and reasonable your thoughts on this topic were. It was a breath of fresh air to see someone discuss it without being biased towards their own extreme views on the matter.
With due respect to this cute awesome guy, abortion is murder! You know, like taking the breath away from a little life. Simple enough? Bottom line we need parents to teach their kids the truth about Godly living and practicing it themselves! Abstinence prevents diseases and unwanted pregnancies! Simple enough? Being legal does not make it right to murder. Too much to ask? Then face God with your killings! Now spin around all this and see what you get. The same old junk.
God designed the reproduction of all living things. A body needs time to develope; hence, the gestation period in the womb. That womb rejects 1/3 of all pregnancies. So whether the miscarriage is a bodily rejection or a deliberate termination, God does with miscarriages what He does.
What do you think God does with all those natural miscarriages? Once you come to terms with that answer, you will no longer have to fret over abortions. You can trust God for He is merciful to the unborn.

Dumb concept (from Jamie)? Yes! However, I'm pro-choice for many reasons. Firstly, you are a guy talking about abortion which pisses me off. You don't have any idea. Secondly, women DO deserve the right to have a choice. Just like you said in a perfect world there would be none of those things but the fact of the matter is that we DON'T live in a prefect world. You disgust me - men shouldn't be able to have opinions on this.
Are you talking to Dan? Because, if you had actually watched the video, he agrees with you. He believes abortion should be legal, and he believes that women should have the choice of whether or not to have one. This video was more directed towards the pro-life side who think that abortions should never happen.
Dan just thinks that "pro-choice" isn't the right label for him, because he believes the issue is more complex than a "yes" or "no". He believes that each case is unique.
Child care center on every college campus? Because that's financially feasible. A college education is expensive enough as it is. Where do you think the funding for a child care center would come from? The state? Good luck getting that tax hike approved. Tuition? Most of the women who have to choose between their child or their education can't afford current tuition. And if you put it into the tuition, would the students who aren't parents have to pay a fee as well? Not very well thought out.
@finishstrongdoc it seems like people always say that its "wrong" because god made them, or that its ok because they dont believe in god, when it doesnt really matter one way or the other. its pretty much like he said.
@mrfoozy47 Lots of opinions on abortion,but we seldom hear from women who didn't abort and were glad they didn't,& chose adoption option instead. Dan spoke of "imperfect world"& offered sex ed,child care on campus as better solutions.Sex "ed" is tricky,becuz of culture's neg influence on kid's minds; msgs f/culture often override parents guidance.The sex urge best explained in home,not in co-ed situ.Sexually"damaged"parents need help,too,2B good teachers of kids.Sex urge is powerful (cont'd)
@mrfoozy47 c- & can be used for good or evil. Sex stimuli used for evil can be minimalized,but is maximalized,used by many groups to control outcomes of culture.Sex is GOOD,that is FOR GOOD,not evil.Evil&good best explained by God,not men.So it comes down 2 ONE God having 2 have ONE Church explain it to ALL for Him, in every age.Women who chose adoption for kids are making good come from evil,which is the only outcome God expects from us.God knows our weaknessesANDour strengths.We must try.
I miss this Dan Brown, PLEASE bring it back! :D

I personally think that it's okay, depending on your situation. If you cannot physically support having a baby in you for 9 months, yes then it's okay. But if it's because you were messing around and not being careful... no deal with it. Don't kill the baby, at least after it's born give it to adoption, but don't abort it.

Your logic is astounding and I'm ashamed that I've never came to that conclusion. I'm 100% pro choice, but it's a difficult thing to dispute because it's undoubtedly preventing life that could become a person if let be. I could care less what a women does with her undeveloped fetus, however.
I think education is the first step, got in a debate the other day with my friends younger brother. He sincerely believes that precum is more likely to get a girl pregnant than cum itself. Scary thought.

( My comment got cut off ) Go threw the emotional trama of having a baby of a man who raped you, Looking at the child every time and seeing a man who raped you. That being said, I think that if your baby isent going to live upon birth, Do not give birth to it and go threw the pain and let the baby suffer. I feel that people who just abort because there not responable for there actions who are to lazy to give birth and adopt are bad. Thats my thoughts.

I think that Abortion is an extreme grey area. I feel like saying " ABORTION IS A GOOD THING " is a horrible thing to say. I think saying " ABORTION IS A BAD THING " is also a horrible and just dumb thing to say. Abortion because your like " ZOMG LIEK IM A TEEN AND LIKE WE DIDNT WEAR A CONDOM SO LIEK, KILL DA BABAH " is stupid. I feel if you cant take care of a baby, Let a responable adult adopt it. I feel if your raped and you dont want to give birth, Go ahead. I dont think anybody should go

Well Dan - I love your mom to bits - I can see where your humour came from. You make some really good points however killing someone whether that person is walking or 'swimming' is still killing! I have a few friends who have had 'legal' [New to South Africa's Law] and backyard abortions. They are all messed up mentally. Somewhere deep down killing your own child even if you have never held them, hits home - and it hurts. However you are a man so.......

@Lilypad190 sex is a primitive drive left from our animal instincts. Some people don't think of putting on the condom, and they certainly don't think of abstinence. It can also be very hard to find someone to adopt the child when they do get prego, no one wants to be a single mom. Too many people don't have common sense, we can't force them to have children when they're too fucking stupid.

I'll be honest, I did not read through ALL the comments here (there are a LOT) but everyone seems to be assuming that the hypothetical fetus in question is healthy. There are cases where that is not the case. In fact, sometimes, those later in the pregnancy abortions are done not because the child isn't wanted, but because the child won't survive outside of the womb, which often is found out until the anatomy ultrasound around 16 weeks or so. Like Dan said, Think things through!

@urepkingtarg1 Do you remember when you were a 1 year old? Just because you don't remember when you were a fetus does not mean that a fetus does not feel pain. In fact it is scientifically proven that an embryo as young as 8 weeks gestation can feel pain. And a fetus feels pain a lot more intensely. Have you ever seen a preemie in the NICU? It is painful for them just to be touched. Your argument is uneducated and makes absolutely no sense. As for the 16 year old, I am not pro life or pro

@urepkingtarg1 "choice" either, I believe if it really is jeopardizing the girls mental health and could cause long term issues she should have a choice. But I think it should be done early on and humanely, not wait until the 2nd or 3rd trimester and then all the sudden decide she wants an abortion. You know, there is always the choice of adoption. Do you know how many families would kill to adopt a healthy newborn?

I think it’s a very difficult and personal choice. A woman should have the right to make a choice about her body without being branded as a murderer, cause she’s not. Since when does an unborn baby have more rights than a living human?

@andiecupcakes A fetus does not have more rights than a person who is already born, in fact it has none. By the way, a fetus IS a living human. What is it a different species until it's born or something? The argument is whether or not it is a "person" yet, not a human.

I don't have a problem with abortion- when most abortions take place it is very early on in pregnancy, yes some do take place when the foetus is more like a baby than a bunch of cells but a very large majority do not. The fact is when the foetus cannot support itself its not life because it cannot survive by any measure on its own. I do agree however that the limit of 24 weeks should be reduced as babies have survived at 23- none at 22 weeks however.
franisgenius 1 year ago
@franisgenius
Actually, babies have survived at 21 weeks.
Also, just because a foetus is on "life support" does not mean that they are any less human and should have any less rights (After all a 30 yr old on life support would not automatically be stripped of their rights as a human being). I don't know if you have looked very much into fetal development, but if you have you will notice how very swiftly it transforms from "a bunch of cells" to a fetus with recognizable human characteristics

Nine months of agony to give a child away to be raised in loveless orphanages? You care SO MUCH for children.

@StrawberryBoy100 mmhmmm, yea thats terrible cuz it sound to me he didnt have much time to live his life either. After he was to old for the orphanage he could get a job and go to church. Then, i can i assure you god would make his life sooo much better and bless him in soooo many ways.

If people are so determined to stop them, they need to stop investing their money into rally's, signs, and other items going for their cause. Instead, now this is just a suggestion, invest the freekin money in stronger freekin condoms, more reliable birth control pills, and make both of them more affordable!

i'm pro-life, and i know plenty of people who are pro-choice that want abortion to be legal for completely legitimate reason. But i'm pro-life because where i live, there are rich wives getting abortions all the time just because they dont want a kid. They are completely capable of raising a child in an incredibly nice living style, but they dont feel like having a kid so instead of using protection like a smart person, they just have sex and then get an abortion if they get pregnant.

I am pro-choice. I wouldn't, personally, have an abortion, but I believe women should have the choice. But, I don't thing it should be used as a way to not take responsibility for your actions. But in cases such as rape or if there is a very strong chance that the woman could die in childbirth they should be allowed to have an abortion.

Bullshit. There is a world of difference between shooting a perfectly formed person and preventing a blastocyst from forming.

I'm not pro-child abuse, by any stretch of the imagination, but something has caused us to approach children very differently in modern cultures. In other words, these sentiments are new...

CAS or CPS (wherever your from) can take care of children and even make them better off if they dont have suitable mothers. If your body isn't able there are c-sections. Sex is for procreation, not ONLY physical pleasure, babies are gifts, not curses.

@MrsDepp0509 i am completely sympathetic to rape victims. i understand that they never intended on getting pregnant, but i also beg the question is it the baby's fault? also, i i don't think that we should regard the baby's life as more important than the mother's and if we can only save one, i support saving the mother. pro-lifers don't all disregard those two things. it's just that when a woman gets pregnant and she wants an abortion because a baby would be inconvenient, i think that's wrong.

Secondly embryonic stem cells are bad science as adult stem cells have been found superior, so why kill
Speegs23 9 months ago
@MrsDepp0509 The last reason is the only valid one in my opinion. That 'reminder' is a human life; something that shouldn't be discarded simply because it makes a girl feel uncomfortable.

Your comment could easily be applied to the potential life lost during masturbation. It's your genes. It's part of you. What would the child have been like? Same deal. Why is this different?

and as for everyone arguing the point of "a fetus isn't a person" hey, that's up to you. personally as a 16 year old.. i don't believe that if I got pregnant i would be ready to be a mother... but i also wouldn't be able to get an abortion. because i would see the child as part of me. even at the fetal stage it is part of me. half of it's genes are FROM me. it simply wouldn't sit well with my conscience knowing that i killed what would have been my child EVEN at the fetal stage.

soooooo i think you should stay out of my brain.. because i couldn't agree with you more. all this Pro-Life, Pro-Choice nonsense is ridiculous. we're fighting each other and nothing is going to get solved because of it!

@chickie773 Pooping a watermelon?
Well, the baby comes out from the VAGINA and NOT the anus. So imagine putting a watermelon in your VAGINA and then pushing it out.

@Majicjj You seem to confuse a baby fetus as a "someone" when it's not a full, autonomous human being. Yes, a fetus is living, but it is only a "potential" person, not a person in its entirety, thus meaning it has no real rights that are violated when aborting them. It'd be pretty similar to just squashing a spider or swatting a fly.

well...my mum had abortion like 2 years ago because no one of us wanted the baby..i don't think that on her second week of pregnancy the baby was a person..i also think that it saved it from a cruel world...because i can see that my aunt who kept both babies is now divorced and my cousins depressed...so...the point is that you're old enough,careful and able to keep a baby..otherwise,abortion is a good solution for both mother and fetus...

a seed is not a tree, an egg is not a chicken, a fetus is not a person!
abortion is a sad thing, but a baby could ruin a woman's life, and often they don't have the means to support it.
and i agree with dan.

@badbademmabrown A fetus isn't a person?
What about PBA? (partial birth abortion) a FULL term baby who CAN SURVIVE on it's own getting stuck in the neck with scissors. Half hanging out of it's mom, moving and FULLY ALIVE AND AWARE and can very much feel pain.
Is that a person?
Or how about the babies that LIVED despite an abortion attempt and were left to die anyway?
Is that a person?
Yeah, I thought so. STOP LYING you hypocrite.

@Attackoftheluls I do get it. You dont get to detirmine whether someone lives or dies, EVEN IF THAT LIFE IS GROWING INSIDE OF YOU! And if a doctor says delivering the child will likely kill you, maybe then would I understand an abortion. Thats the only logical case for one though, and in the same situation, I myself would still go through with the delivery, unless the chance of death was 100 percent.

I was really impressed by how rational and reasonable your thoughts on this topic were. It was a breath of fresh air to see someone discuss it without being biased towards their own extreme views on the matter.

With due respect to this cute awesome guy, abortion is murder! You know, like taking the breath away from a little life. Simple enough? Bottom line we need parents to teach their kids the truth about Godly living and practicing it themselves! Abstinence prevents diseases and unwanted pregnancies! Simple enough? Being legal does not make it right to murder. Too much to ask? Then face God with your killings! Now spin around all this and see what you get. The same old junk.

God designed the reproduction of all living things. A body needs time to develope; hence, the gestation period in the womb. That womb rejects 1/3 of all pregnancies. So whether the miscarriage is a bodily rejection or a deliberate termination, God does with miscarriages what He does.
What do you think God does with all those natural miscarriages? Once you come to terms with that answer, you will no longer have to fret over abortions. You can trust God for He is merciful to the unborn.

Dumb concept (from Jamie)? Yes! However, I'm pro-choice for many reasons. Firstly, you are a guy talking about abortion which pisses me off. You don't have any idea. Secondly, women DO deserve the right to have a choice. Just like you said in a perfect world there would be none of those things but the fact of the matter is that we DON'T live in a prefect world. You disgust me - men shouldn't be able to have opinions on this.

@shiznok
Are you talking to Dan? Because, if you had actually watched the video, he agrees with you. He believes abortion should be legal, and he believes that women should have the choice of whether or not to have one. This video was more directed towards the pro-life side who think that abortions should never happen.
Dan just thinks that "pro-choice" isn't the right label for him, because he believes the issue is more complex than a "yes" or "no". He believes that each case is unique.

Child care center on every college campus? Because that's financially feasible. A college education is expensive enough as it is. Where do you think the funding for a child care center would come from? The state? Good luck getting that tax hike approved. Tuition? Most of the women who have to choose between their child or their education can't afford current tuition. And if you put it into the tuition, would the students who aren't parents have to pay a fee as well? Not very well thought out.

@mrfoozy47 Lots of opinions on abortion,but we seldom hear from women who didn't abort and were glad they didn't,& chose adoption option instead. Dan spoke of "imperfect world"& offered sex ed,child care on campus as better solutions.Sex "ed" is tricky,becuz of culture's neg influence on kid's minds; msgs f/culture often override parents guidance.The sex urge best explained in home,not in co-ed situ.Sexually"damaged"parents need help,too,2B good teachers of kids.Sex urge is powerful (cont'd)

@mrfoozy47 c- & can be used for good or evil. Sex stimuli used for evil can be minimalized,but is maximalized,used by many groups to control outcomes of culture.Sex is GOOD,that is FOR GOOD,not evil.Evil&good best explained by God,not men.So it comes down 2 ONE God having 2 have ONE Church explain it to ALL for Him, in every age.Women who chose adoption for kids are making good come from evil,which is the only outcome God expects from us.God knows our weaknessesANDour strengths.We must try.

In the atheists "perfect world, all these extremes are acceptable.
finishstrongdoc 1 year ago
It's extreme to spend $338,000,000 tax dollars/yr to fund Planned Barrenhood.
It's extreme to want to teach little kids that masturbation is recreational sex.
It's extreme to think atheism should be taught in schools.
It's extreme to teach that Christianity is the source of all evil in the world.
It's extreme to think Christians are to be condemned for their beliefs.
It's extreme to teach that abortion is a morally acceptable form of birth control.
It;s extreme to teach that abstinence is evil
