Question
I notice how you didn't respond to my "innocent until proven guilty" concept. I also notice how you keep going back to all the natural causes of "embryo" death and how, since I am not speaking out against that, I do not care about the "embryos" actually dying. The key here is "natural" death. To a certain extent, nothing can be done about death by natural causes. For example, many, many people die of old age yearly, but no one will say that those who do not demand medical research into the causes of those deaths don't care at all. We can't prevent, again, to a certain degree, miscarriages, but we definitely can prevent abortions.
You are absolutely right when you say that an "embryo" is not a baby just because I say it is; however, the reverse could also be said. Again, would you rather risk a major inconvenience, or the death of a baby?
I'll go ahead and add that abortion is not healthy for society as a whole. Have you ever heard of the social security crisis? Well, though it would not prevent it, having those several million more taxpayers that we don't have now because of all the abortions would certainly have helped the situation. Any comments?

Answer
Dear Adam,

I'm not really sure what you mean by the "innocent until proven guilty" concept.  I'd be glad to respond if you could explain more fully for me.

Here is the bottom line:

Abortions have always been a part of human civilization.  They have been occurring since mankind has existed.  Women who have unwanted pregnancies simply will not be forced to continue them, regardless of how you or anyone else feels about it.  Since women are human beings, they have the right to control their own bodies.  What goes on inside of a woman's vagina and uterus is none of your business.  

The reason most civilized societies have legalized abortion is because they understand these facts.  No person has the right to interfere with what goes in in another person's body.  If you do not like abortion, don't get anyone pregnant.  Since you will never know what it feels like to have an unwanted pregnancy, you will probably never fully understand how strongly women feel about this issue.


Take care,

Deb
