Chumly,

Do you support the 'right' to kill a baby that is a few seconds away from being completely separated from the woman's body?

If you do not support partial birth abortion, then at exactly what point do you think abortion should be illegal?

The baby is outside the mother's body, except for the head which is still in the cervix.

Then, the abortionist punctures the skull and sucks the brains out with a vacuum.



Where is this legal?

They cite as a source for these stats a pro-abortion public relations and research firm :

real, That procedure is used to save the mother's life.

You must tell us how many abortions are performed a few seconds before birth? Please name the hospitals and doctors.

No, the baby is completely out of the woman's body, except for the head. It is a few seconds from being born. You cannot name any circumstance where killing the child at this point will save the mother's life.

Ah, "partial birth abortion", a term that does not exist in medical dictionaries and was actually invented by politicians to describe the intact dilation and extraction method of abortion (intact dilation and extraction can be used for non-abortion reasons).

Isn't that question a strawman, seeing as it's illegal in the United States now? Wasn't the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act (HR 760, S 3) upheld by the Supreme Court?

Furthermore, as far as I can tell, this procedure is not used unless there are unforseen circumstances relating to maternal mortality or severe morbidity.

Then again, I did vow not to touch this debate with a ten foot pole.

Good to hear from you Wolf.

Pro-abortion zealots like CI support abortion up to the point of birth. So, my question was an attempt to get him to defend his belief.

It appears he won't.

Whether partial birth abortion is legal or not, zealots like CI think that abortion should ALWAYS be available, up to the point of birth. It is the 'mother's right' that is paramount.

Even if the baby is a few seconds from being born.

Or even if the woman isn't actually carrying the child at all, in fact.

If a child were to grow the entire nine months OUTSIDE the mothers womb (in a lab for instance), CI still would not concede that the child had a right to life at ANY POINT, and could be destroyed by whatever barbaric method one chose.

Right, CI?

Why?

Because to concede that the child had a right to live at any point would be to go down a road that the pro-abortion crowd just can't afford to.

If the unborn is recognized as a living human being with rights at ANY point, their party is over.

But an unborn is not a living "human being" with the same rights at any other point in their lives. Now it is human, it is alive, but it is at no point a human being. It is not a person. It is a collection of cells that cannot be proven to have any of the characteristics of humans.

It has none of the internal flora and fauna that paradoxically contribute to what make us human.

Pro-abortionists make a good point. The mother should have the right to do it. She shouldn't have to go to a backyard clinic and die under hygienic conditions.

Anti-abortionists focus on the problem at the wrong end. You don't want abortion to be carried out unnecessarily? Get rid of abstinence-only education, as it just isn't working (research has shown it isn't working). Ensure that if abstinence is taught, it must be taught alongside all other methods like condom use, intrauterine methods, hormonal methods, behavioural methods etc.

Make abortion illegal by all means. Argue against it. Condemn those who have it. Won't do you a shred of good. People will still seek it out.

Very true, Wolf.

We've made theft illegal and folks still do it.

Same with kidnapping.

And rape.

Extortion.

Fraud.

What good has it done us?

You're right.

Completely ignoring what I said about tackling the causes, aren't you?

You're tackling the issue from the wrong end. As a result, you are no more morally right or wrong than the pro-abortionists. So, you wish for women to have to go through the psychological pain of bearing the child of their rapist/batterer/what have you? That the abortion itself isn't psychologically traumatic enough?

Ideally, it should be restricted to before the brain fully develops. The fetus won't feel pain and it would be no more different from a spontaneous abortion.

However, life is not ideal. In certain cases, where the woman is young and where the woman was raped, the woman can have second thoughts about the act of birthing the bastard child of their rapist. And unless the rapist isn't the woman's husband (which is highly likely) that child is a bastard by definition.

All you can do is reduce the need for abortion by ensuring that teenagers don't have unprotected sex, that they know the full proper consequences of every single contraceptive method and that abstinence-only doesn't work as well as the abstinence-only spin-doctors would have you like.

Let me recap. Your wish is for abortion to cease. But historically, making abortion illegal has never stopped abortion from occurring. So why are you arguing against abortion? It's pointless. You aren't going to convince anyone to change their mind. You aren't going to stop abortions from occurring. You're banging your head against a brick wall.

That's all I'm going to say on the matter.
