Personal Story: As I See It Part IX
Pro-Child Is Not Anti-Woman
Abortion rights have long been a bone of contention between the left and the right. Leftists chant, “Stay out of my uterus!” and “My body my choice!” The Right (and science) contends that the unborn child is not “your body”, but another person’s body. For the pro-choice group it is all about a woman’s right, for the pro-life it is all about murder.
According to science, not even thinking about Bible scripture or religion, a new life is formed at conception. Within 3 weeks of conception all systems are set in place and a heartbeat exists. A pro-life person believes they are speaking for the children who are unable to speak for themselves. Planned parenthood has done over 3 million abortions, many being partial birth abortions where the baby is nearly full term. The baby is partially delivered, and then scissors are jammed into the brain stem to slowly kill the baby, keeping he/she alive just long enough to harvest the body parts to sell. Or, they just chop the baby up inside the womb. This is a disgusting fact. There are also other equally gruesome abortion methods used.
While pro-lifers at least try to get this atrocity stopped, Democrats always veto a late-term abortion ban. Democrat controlled states now have laws in place protecting abortion for any reason through full term and after live delivery… which is infanticide. As of the writing of this post at least 8 states have passed laws making it legal to kill a child up to birth and directly after. With about 360,000 abortions performed by Planned Parenthood every year, 1,000 a day, if only 1% are late term, that means 10 full term children per day are brutally murdered and die an excruciating death when they could have survived outside the womb. Many more are murdered in the second trimester.
I do understand, raising 4 children alone, the complicated issue at hand. I feel for a woman who is alone and goes through a pregnancy she didn’t plan or want. However, there are many organizations out there who will help throughout the pregnancy and help arrange for adoption. Maybe at some point science will provide an alternative, maybe an artificial womb to allow the child to develop and live, instead of being murdered. Releasing the biological parents of any liability, the child could be adopted. I know this sounds really crazy, but there isn’t an easy answer. If you believe it is murder, then it is murder plain and simple; and as a society we have always regulated murder.
I do ponder the reasoning of the Leftist pro-choicer. I envision a purple-haired vegan, hairy armpits, animal rights activist, who wears only cotton, and shuns leather. Which are all wonderful choices, but I would assume if her dog’s puppies were ripped from the womb almost full term then scissored in the brain or chopped up and mutilated…that would probably bother her. I question as to why no one cares if it’s a child. Being pro-life doesn’t mean you are anti-woman, it means you are pro-child. Leave the child alone in the womb and let him/her be born where he/she can decide for their own life. Most people would decide they want to live. Being Pro-Life is still Pro-Choice, but it is the child that gets to choose life!
