QUESTION: Can someone please explain to me why a young woman would choose abortion over carrying the child to term and putting it up for adoption?


Somebody who knows a lot about abortion, I don't remember who argues:
*Given that: Women today have been brainwashed into believing that having a baby at the wrong time results in the woman's death. That is, death to their dreams, hopes, futures, education, better life.
*Given that: Women believe that giving a baby up for adoption is death to the child. That is, death to her son/daughter, because she will lose him and he will not be her son anymore. Death to their child because she is giving him up into an uncertain future.
*There are three choices.
1) Abortion: --> 1 death-->The baby dies.
2) Keeping the child--> 1 death-->The mother dies.
3) Adoption --> 2 deaths-->Throught the nine months, her baby is growing and is killing her(that is one death by adoption). Then, when she gives him up for adoption, the baby dies(that's the second death by adoption).
Therefore, adoption is the least desirable choice be it causes more deaths than eiher abortion or keeping the child

In reality there is only one choice. Kill the baby.

That's what "choice" means. The baby is already alive and full on its way to being born. To say you have other choices is like saying you'll choose to keep breathing today. It's fantasy, and a thinly veiled temporal escape from a real conscience.

Anyone that murders deserves pain. That's the whole point of pain. Pain's statement is, "don't do that".
