Is abortion really wrong?

It is the extinguishing of what would have become a person, but was not sufficiently developed. Therefore, you are all wet, Xenoche and others.

No, it is the killing of a developing person that you cannot see.

Funny that Xenoche seems to agree with you and you tell him/her that they are all wet.

I am wet (please clarify, I am noob ok).

We can all harp on about what has'nt yet become of another persons child, or we can just except the fact that its none of our buisiness what an individual does to his or her bodies (i'm I correct, or are the bodies of the general populus property of the state where you reside?).

What would have become a person, developing person -
Explain the difference.

Apologies. I read your post much too hastily.

The Facts:
a) Abortion is the "abortion" of a human life.
What people are discussing is whether or not Abortion is equal to killing.
b) Abortion is a choice, it is up to the individual to decide.
A2k'ers are also discussing whether or not the choice should be removed.
c) Abortion is useful in the removal of unhealthy, brain-damaged, under-developing fetus's.
It is still being discussed whether or-not this is immoral.

To me, abortion is the extinguishing of an undeveloped soul. It is not killing, as I feel that the un-selfsufficiancy of a fetus voids it from being defined as alive. It is however an extended part of the mothers body with the potential to become a human life. I think it should be up to the individual and the individual alone whether or not to abort. As for utilizing abortion as a means to prevent the birth of a defective infant, I still feel that the medical sector lay the facts in front the individual to make a educated decision.

Yes pictures of disposed infants is horrible, but so is war, and rotten.com. That doesn't stop people from killing others and themselves. No matter how strongly some of you oppose it, like drug prohibition, people still do it.

Abortion beats authorities finding infants in trash cans.

Everyone's opinion hinges on the idea of a "living person" in the whomb.

Hey real life, believe it or not, i have two kids, ones 4 and the others 4 1/2 mounths, I have seen them move within with ultra sound, felt them move by touch, and I STILL stand my ground that it is for the individual involved to decide.
I dont need some pathetic links to OTHER peoples pregnancies in a rediculus attempt to pull a sympathy vote.

Xenoche, You are right by some 100 percent! Isn't it funny they want to control other people's life? They would show pictures of a growing embryo and say it's wrong to kill a life, but they fail to recognize and show pictures of all the lives already on this planet that are starving to death - or being killed in war zones. Their hypocrisy knows no bounds.

What would have become a person, developing person -
Explain the difference.

There is no difference other than you seem to negate the fact that it is a developing person...not a thing that does not have a beating heart.

At least you did not question the killing part.

If you wish to impose your religious philosophy on others you don't even know, but ignore the people who are already "living," you miss the point completely.

No doubt, but to assume real life and intrepid are not hypocrites is the big question. Talk is cheap.
