I am voting for this one!
Yeah...you would.
And that is another reason why I will fight this cancer pretending to be a religion...because I don't want this kind of nonsense infecting this country or this world.

NO!
If she is an idiot and uses drugs, alcohol and such...that is unfortunate. But I don't want the government deciding that she should be put in jail for that.
Not sure why you have trouble with that answer...but do continue.
And yet the child gets the life sentence for the choice of the mother.
If it were enforcable to any degree I'd like to see a mother like that prosecuted. In my book they are the equivalent of reckless and drunk drivers.

You are entitled to your opinion.
You asked for mine...and I gave it.
CerealKiller,
I am with you on that point. It is at the very least, reckless endangerment. I am just amazed at the lack of respect for human life that Frank seems to have.
Perhaps if there were more consequences for acts such as these, there would be some deterrent for this.
There have been cases where there have been injunctions put in place (by the courts) to mandate a woman was to not drink alcohol during her pregnancy. The suit was brought about by a husband who was married to an alcoholic and he wanted his child safe. She had already had one child born with fetal alcohol syndrome and had given that child up for adoption.
And, in my opinion, if someone puts the life of a child in danger, then the law must be brought in to protect that child.
Frank: When does it become "not okay" to kill the baby? When the head pops out of the womb? When the entire body clears the passageway? When the cord is severed? Surely there is a line of demarcation for you?

Well, Tico, the answer is obvious:
Just hold off on calling it a baby until the time most convenient for you.

He was very clear. He calls it a baby at birth.
It ain't apisa till it's out of the oven.
Just don't stop calling me a man when I show signs of Alzheimers.
You can't kill a human; but a geezer - that's different!
If that rule holds true, Frank does indeed have cause for concern.
Death by definition. How sad!
Not apisa until it's out of the oven!
That's a good one!
Why do those of you that have a belief in the afterlife, so desperately cling to this one?
Mesquite,
I can only speak for myself. God's gift to me is my life. My gift to God is what I do with that life. We are born with the instinct for survival. It's not that I want to leave this life, it's I want to make this life the best I can until I get where I am going.

I'll wait until someone here says something worthy of a reply...and then do so.
Well, I must say, that was pretty predictable.

Did you ever tell us what you think of partial birth abortion?

As is almost everything you write, MA.
