"God knows the names and faces of each of these dear ones."

He certainly does. He knit them in their womb ... . I can't help but believe they are in heaven with Him. While our nature is sinful they didn't have a chance to sin yet.

"They didn't have any "choice", and they regret the abortions every day of their lives."

Absolutely false. To have an abortion is a CHOICE for whatever reason. To not have one is a CHOICE. There are places to go for help. There have ALWAYS been places to go fro help to avoid having an abortion.

Until you've personally been in the same situation then you don't have any right to pass judgment on another person for their actions or decisions.

Murdering your own child must be its own judgement.

You'd have to live the rest of your life with the knowledge that you have killed your own precious baby.

When he/she reaches what should be his/her 2nd birthday, you wonder what he would look like. Then 6, and starting first grade, 13, 18 and high school graduate, and then college.

But you killed him.

There are many Christians who are counseling women through the grief and pain they go through because of their 'choice.' Doctors told them it was NOT a human being, and they believed them. And there are still evil doctors and abortion advocates who are urging other young women to make the same choice and murder their own precious child.

The choice is to not have sex if you are unmarried, or to have protected sex if you are, but can't support it.

And if you DO become pregnant, you do NOT murder that child you have conceived. You give him to someone else to raise in love..........because abortion is MURDER.

"Fetuses"....... they have to objectize it - give it a cold medical name ... they don't dare call it what it is - an unborn baby.

Your object wrote, "Whether there are brain waves or not, the fetus is not conscious. Human beings are born tabula rasa..." I must tell you that the one with whom you've been exchanging is a blatant liar. And the cited sentence proves it because that poster has been told of the brainwave studies and the experiments that prove the unborn baby can and does LEARN while in the womb. The poster chooses to disbelieve the truth because the poster has an agenda, perhaps designed to protect from self-scrutiny behavior the poster cannot confront. But the poster is decidedly pro-serial killing of the unborn and will twist facts and lie to support that stance.

Exactly. They strongly object to the use of the accurate term 'unborn baby' and call it 'tissue' or a 'fetus.' They strongly object to pre abortion counseling that shows mothers what their child actually looks like, because they will lose business if the mother decides to keep her baby.

The worst thing for the abortion business has been quality sonograms. Everyone who has seen an early sonogram has seen a young human being, so the tide has been turning against the abortion industry.

They are becoming desperate, especially with this President who believes in the sanctity of life. He has been called "Public Enemy #1" by Planned Parenthood because he is a threat to their income.

This is pure evil, nmh. We need to pray, to fight, and to put our dollars with those who are fighting for the TRUTH to be made known.

You are absolutely correct. The only reason Men who support abortion has nothing what so ever to do with the well being of a woman. It only has to do with getting them off the hook. All play and no responsibility for their actions.

As to said women who had abortions, most of them do so with the urging of said men. Look at the faces of the women who come out of abortion clinics. There are no smiles or relief. Just sadness and guilt.

As to the hundreds of pro-abortion letters from women who had abortions. Well hundreds do not even come close to the millions that has been performed.

It is important for women who has had abortions to speak out and let the public know their true feelings.

I wonder how many abortions a man has pushed on to women. That would be an interesting number.....

I think you're right about many women having abortions at the insistence of the men who made them pregnant, and understand that there is pressure there.

But I believe in women's rights........the REAL kind. I was a feminist when it meant that women were being encouraged to be strong and capable. Women need to begin standing up against these men, and do what's RIGHT. No excuses.

But you are also right that they are bearing a tremendous amount of guilt for murdering their own child, and these stories need to be told..........more than the hundreds who claim to believe they did the right thing......the thousands, or millions who know they DIDN'T need to speak up.

Thank you so much, my FRiend. I feel that the person I am trying to get to see my point, will not be convinced of anything. As long as this man continues to close his eyes and rationalize with the "I feel" mentality, he will not be convinced at all.
But I feel strongly and I'm hoping!

>>I have never personally had an abortion and I hope that I never am in a position where I have to make that decision. I am, however, thankful that I live in a society that gives me a right to have control over my own body.<<

You have the right to abstain from sex. When one talks about "control" over your own body, you are actually talking about ending your child's life.

Being A feminist to me means being strong as a female not trying to be a male. I am very proud to be a female and do not wanna be or measure up to any traits like a male.

I agree that women are strong and capable except when they are lead by the nose by men such as the Clinton types, NOW Hags etc. For these women, I feel are an insult to our intelligence and who we are.

If some women only knew the powers given to us by the Almighty by using their feminine side, can handle most men very easily.

The greatest gift the Almighty gave to Females was to experience the creation of a new life growing inside of us. Those wonderful amazing feelings and undying love you feel when you hold your newborn in your arms for the first time. Women are nurturing and are not made to be sexually free with every Tom, Dick and Harry. Look at a women who has numerous sexual partners and you see a woman with dead eyes and a jaded mindset.

The Almighty entrusted us with the task of giving birth, nurturing, and loving his most precious gifts, us.

Amen to all you said!

Knowing that this gift is from the Creator of all life, makes you understand that those women who choose to kill that life will suffer for it.

I'm really for choice -- I just don't know how they can get what the baby's choice would be.
