How Do We Respond to the Question 'What About Rape and Incest?'

[Coleus]

If a mother has no right to consent, or if her consent doesn’t mean anything, then there is no crime of rape. >>>

Read the Bible and the Declaration of Independence, all RIGHTS come from GOD our Creator. There is no right for the created, the woman, the mother, to murder her child in the womb. God said, “choose life”, “before I created you in the womb, I knew you.”

And, again, you are confusing pregnancy, the nine months a woman carries her child and the word childbirth, the time the baby enters the birth canal to be born. Most women die during CHILDBIRTH and not during pregnancy. There is no need to murder a child because a woman is pregnant. Women abort out of conveinience, they abort if a doctor presumes she may be carrying a defected baby. A woman’s life is not in jeopardy if she is pregnant, pregnancy enhances a woman’s life, a woman’s body was made to carry children.

If a victim of rape decides to terminate the pregnancy that resulted form that rape, then it isn’t murder, it’s a justifable killing.

You call it murder if you want to. I’m going to call it justifable killing, because the rapist never got the mother’s consent.

I never said the baby HAS TO BE KILLED. I said the mother has to be asked for her consent.

If you wat to FORCE her to have the baby, just as the RAPIST FORCED HER TO HAVE INTERCOURSE, then you do that.

I don’t really care to argue this with you anymore, because your point of view will never be law, you are wasting my time and yours.

you would make a great democrat politician, I see you are on your high horse and would be at home in your ivory tower. You will be a great advocate for women’s reproductive rights, since you believe that our right to life isn’t from God or not from scripture you would fit right in. I bet you love gay marriage too. A woman should have the right to marry another woman, right? And she has a right to have an embryo implanted in her to become pregnant, right?
