sarcasm duly noted...
But I guess I am on the horns of a moral dilema.
I do not think abortion is moral.
And yet I do not think that so-called conservatives should be rushing out to cede authority over our lives to the state, especially in an issue as sensitive as this one.
When it comes to consenting adults, there is absolutely no "excuse" for abortion. None. Yet with rape and incest I actually do see a grey area.Call me a hypocrite, but I'm being as honest as possible.
I also know that there are actually few rapes that result in pregnancy, yet I would still feel more comfortable having the victim of a rape make the decision with regard to the pregnancy, instead of Janet Reno.
Remember, the state that can force a woman to have a child concieved in a violent rape....
could just as easily become the state that could force a woman to have an abortion of a child concieved in love...
Well it is painful to be on the horns of a moral dilemma. Very difficult and I do not envy you. I am not calling you a hypocrite or anything else. I wonder if you can "look the issue in the face". Can you come to terms with the fact:
Abortion takes the life of an innocent child.
The difficulty is knowing that and standing up and saying, "Yes, abortion is murder, but it is still right."
