I FINALLY BELIEVE, IT IS THE WOMAN’S SOLE RIGHT TO CHOOSE..
For me, it came down to a matter of nature, and fairness. I thought it through, and in doing so, I made sure that I really thought it all the way through..
After all of my many years of standing on the sidelines and observing, as was what I have been instructed to do, as a man, I have concluded that it should be the ultimate decision of the woman to decide whether she should be a mother..
In balancing, deliberating, and reasoning, there was but one undeniable truth, if it was the genius of our reproductive system, and the female of our species was chosen by design, biologically, to bear the burden of child creation, she alone should carry the decision of whether she wishes to reproduce. As such, she alone carries the burden of who should be the sperm donor, where and when the reproductive act should transpire. FAIR, and EQUITABLE, RIGHT?
We all know, or at least we should take a great deal more into consideration before and after making that decision, about how important it is in choosing to have a child or children, how that child will be raised. But one step at a time..
Can we agree that the choice of becoming a mother carries more than a simple yes or no. Far be it for me to interfere with the dynamics that should be considered in a woman’s priority process, but the requirements in that decision, by nature and necessity, is how and why to choose the potential male donor, for a milieu of reasons. By carrying the SOLE access to the starting point of reproduction, also carries the sole responsibility for the results of that decision, the wellbeing of the resulting baby..
Assuming we are all on the same page, the donor (THE MALE OF THE SPECIES) has a limited, but vitally important contribution in the process, the seed, or sperm. The donor, has decisions to make as well, first and foremost, does he agree with her choice of him as the contributor, and her choice of where and when, and even in some cases, with all of the new technologies, how..
As a summary, how many choices are involved in the decision to reproduce for the woman; • Do I want to reproduce, or will the act be for some other reason that I should take the risk? • What are the criteria for choosing a potential mate, or participant? • Who will be the contributor, or partner, for whatever reason? • What planning, or precautions, if any, should be required before the act? • When and where the act should take place? • What will I do if the act has produced the intended results, a child? • What if the planning went awry and there are unintended consequences? • What if I become pregnant, who else should suffer the resulting consequences? • Are there any limitations on my decisions? • What if I didn’t plan, what are my responsibilities? • What is my last resort?
As we have outlined, there are a list of choices that a woman has with her reproductive activities, and natural tools to consider, all of which she has the ultimate choice to advance, or reject along the way. With all of these options, who should be responsible for her decisions, other than the one that made them?
So, since I had no choice, no rights to contribute to her decisions, and, unless I was the contributor to the act, leave me or anyone else that were forced out the resulting process, out f the problems, RIGHT?
GOOD LUCK, AND GOD BLESS
A man..
I’m shocked that carlo3b would come out in favour of abortion. Stunned.
That is the consensus. No one knows what the heck happened.
I’m sorry I did that stupid zot graphic. Maybe I’ll just drop that stuff. It seems a lot of people are just misunderstood.
I’m very saddened about this. Who knows why he suddenly, not only chose this path, but chose to make a statement in defiance of the stated principles of this site? I have to guess that something happened in his life that caused him to come to this place. I will pray for him.
That wasn't the question. This is the question: "Should a woman who gets an abortion be imprisoned for murder, along with her doctor?"
It's all fine to say "I'm against abortion". Taking it to a concrete level, what measures are you willing to see enacted to prevent abortion from occurring?
Keep in mind that abortion still happened when it was illegal. The higher the penalties enforced, the fewer abortions we will have. If it's made illegal, but the penalty is just a $100 fine, or 10 days in jail, those penalties will have a negligible effect in reducing abortion. So, what penalties (on the doctor AND the woman) are you willing to advocate?
if you CUT OFF YOUR ARM OR LEG , YOU GO TO A MENTAL HOSPITAL!!!!! WHY??? Becaue NO ONE in their RIGHT MIND KILLS A PART OF THEIR BODY INTENTIONANLLY!!!
Good freaking grief!! Are you SO thick, you can’t see the difference??
*****
I’m not the one who is thick. You apparently don’t get that amputations save lives. I used the movie to be nice but you apparently don’t deserve that consideration.
P.S. Neither an arm nor a leg can survive on their own but you still used the comparison to a full-term baby being adopted. Poor choice on your part.
>> That wasn’t the question.
I was speaking to the diminishing state of human existence described in your kill scenarios.
>> So, what penalties (on the doctor AND the woman) are you willing to advocate?
Is this question designed to challenge the conviction and political will the “pro-lifer” has about the issue, or are you attempting to establish sentencing guidelines?
YOU try cutting off a perfectly good arm when you aren’t in a life and death thing and they will send you to a LOONEY BIN where you belong.
So surprised to read your incoherent words!....There is no ambiguity about abortion.....none!
Have no idea what happened to you...even with Jim Robinson trying to give you 'room to repent' you just dug in deeper.
In these trying times, holding on to ...cherishing... moral truths....is about all we have left.
So sorry to see you derail.
I truly think God is hastening the separation of wheat and chaff.
