Terminating a pregnancy is every bit as responsible as gestating a pregnancy. Further, over half of all women who experience an unintended pregnancy were using some form of contraception during the month that they became pregnant. Your opinions about what a pregnancy should mean are completely irrelevant to anyone other than you.

[kcsorci]

@MrsGWright being forced to risk ones well-being by gestating an unwanted pregnancy is most certainly not a 'wonderful task' (unless the person who would violate a woman's civil rights merely because of her biological capacity for becoming pregnant were a sadist) Pregnant women ALONE should make any and *all* decisions regarding their pregnancies. Further, your personal beliefs regarding gods control over the labor/birthing process are irrelevant to anyone other than you & your loved ones.

@kcsorci Abortion is not a civil right. Get a reality check, please. "Reproductive rights" and "sexual rights" and other so-called "civil rights" are inventions of seriously misguided feminists who think baby killing is proof that they are indeed free and have rights! *eyeroll*

[prolifepinay]

@kcsorci So says anti-life baby killers in your alternate universe and alternate "history of the world". Human zygotes, embryos, fetuses are human beings. All human beings are persons. You have no right to say your own child is not a human person just as you have no right to say that a "Black slave" is a non-person.

Okay, I am in NO WAY supporting ANY of this.

What is better:

Giving a child a terrible life/ cheating it of a good life

Or

Taking its WELL-DESERVED LIFE

or

NOT HAVING UN-PROTECTED SEX BEFORE OUR MARRIED ANYWAY!

GROW A BRAIN PEOPLE!

i think you should shut up. yoou probably stepped on an ant on your way to record this video you murdering fuck

[MrsGWright]

Pregnant women get the wonderful task of bringing a baby into the world! How can you hate babies so much???? I'll pray for you.

Pregnant women CAN make some decisions, like how to decorate the nursery, or what kind of stroller they'll put the little angel in; they can even choose the name of the baby. They just have to remain pregnant till God says it's time to bring Baby into the world.

@MrsGWright When one advocates that women should lose their civil rights, one is most certainly advocating that women lose their citizenship rights immediately upon becoming pregnant. There simply is no way around that. You do not get to decide how happy other people are... sheesh, inflated sense of self much? Pregnant women are the most qualified people to making any and all decisions regarding their pregnancies. Period.

[MrsGWright]

Women don't lose their status as citizens! They get a great big promotion to being a Mommy! There's nothing more rewarding, not matter WHAT people might say about "fufillment" and "having it all," I am MUCH happier than all those strumpets who spread their legs and refuse to be Mothers.

[kcsorci]

@MrsGWright WTH does 'possibly be created by the Lord' mean, anyway? Is the Lord back in that old 'impregnating the virgin' game? Despite your emotive outburst, women are fully due their full civil rights; twomen do not suddenly lose their status as citizen immediately upon becoming pregnant (thank the Lord for that, eh?)

[MrsGWright]

Don't you heartless people feel any pity for the itty-bitty human child who might possibly be created by the Lord if your after-fornication pill fails to function? That young person might not make his or her sweet little way down Mommy's fallopian tube to make a nice little bed in her uterus! The world is already a terrible dangerous place for these children: many of them die on their precious journey to the womb.

These tiny babies are a holy message! Renounce your sin and be a mommy.
