Anyone who can equate the killing and beheading of an eleven-year old girl with abortion is as morally repugnant as any African witch doctor, only less forgivable.

So long as this superstitious ignorance prevails in this country it will continue to become more and more like Africa.

"Anyone who can equate the killing and beheading of an eleven-year old girl with abortion is as morally repugnant as any African witch doctor, only less forgivable."

Let us see...this albino girl was killed because a genetic irregularity made her undesireable in her society. A sophisticated, western mom is told her child will be born with Down's syndrome and decides to have it torn apart in the womb.

Nope. I don't see any moral equivalence there...< /sarc>

Actually, the abortion is probably more egregious since it's the child's own mother that sees the child as an inconvenience.

“superstitious ignorance” Most leftists and atheists (mostly the same folks) use that to mean Christianity.

Could you please explain this? Are you pro-choice or do you just think it is less evil to kill a baby in the womb than to kill an 11 year old?

Also what is superstitous about the other posters position?

Thank you in advance for your answers.

>> Anyone who can equate the killing and beheading of an eleven-year old girl with abortion is as morally repugnant ...

If we all agree about the value and importance of the 11 year old’s life, where does that leave you regarding the killing of nascent human life?

The equivalence is legitimate - though, it may not be pertinent to the crime of witchcraft.

Also, a woman’s decision to kill the unborn child is not a choice that only affects the woman. Is the father irrelevant? Is the child’s life irrelevant? Are the concerns of the siblings relevant? Grandparents?

It is more vile to be betrayed and killed by a parent than a stranger.

I will assume that you forgot the sarcasm tag.....no one, with an iota of intellegence would not equate the murder of an eleven year old with the murder of a six month old. A dead girl is a dead girl, 1 2 3 4 5 6 why does it matter how old she is???.Oh guess what...if you want to kill an eleven year old, you have to do it yourself...if you want to abort your child, you hire someone else to do it.....that makes it a hell of a lot easier, but the result is exactly the same, a dead girl......pathetic
