If aborting a pregnancy even early on is murder, at what point does the egg become "human?" At the point of fertilization? In addition to this, having a child is a life-changing event. What if the pregnancy is non-consensual or unplanned? The mother may also just change her mind or she may need to get an abortion for healthcare reasons because a lot can happen while pregnant.
@9FSWL2T2yrs2Y
i dont think people should be able to just get rid of a life because they decided to just mess around with no reprobation's. i also think the father should have a say as its his child too.
@9FTWLZJ2yrs2Y
I believe aborting an un-born baby is no different than killing an already born baby. Everyone has a soul, and a chance at life. Even if it doesn't fit the reality of the parents to have a kid, there are options of putting kids up for adoption.
@9FT9JTL2yrs2Y
If the child was living outside of your body, it is still yours, and you are not allowed to harm it. It's still a human being. It could grow up to change the world.
@9G8BH642yrs2Y
Abortion should not be used as a way to have repeated unprotected sex without birth control. Abortion should only be allowed if there is danger to the mother or child, the mother is a victim of rape or incest, or if they are not old enough to marry.
@9G45LVX2yrs2Y
This living Baby has no a life and we have no idea what its gonna become. Don't end their ;life before its even begun.
@9G7PW8C2yrs2Y
You can only be given access to abortion if you were raped, have health issues or serious problems. It cant be a 'mistake'.
@9FWQXNG2yrs2Y
Is murder aloud? The child in the womb is life from the moment of conception. If left to its own, it will turn into a child. That child doesn’t have a voice, and is fearfully and wonderfully made, therefore has every right to life. You can say people should have a choice, but do you actually know what abortion means, and how can a decision be made for that child when we are all broken people.
Abortion can never be regulated because people will find a way to kill their babies regardless. However, in a country with subsidized healthcare, it is not only morally wrong but also financially irresponsible to force people who don't agree with abortion to pay for the abortions (via taxation) of citizens who are often times getting these abortions out of convenience.
@B4MC62R6 days6D
The fetus is a living human being and is therefore afforded the right to life, the right which is a gate to all rights.
@B4KBFYM1wk1W
The moment a child is concieved it is a living thing, therefore abortion in any form is murder and a sin.
@B4JK6C9Conservative1wk1W
A fetus with a heartbeat is a living human being, however in cases of rape, incest or danger it should be allowed.
Women are having fewer and fewer babies overall today. Way less then the required 2.1 to maintain population numbers. We shouldn’t be advocating for the murdering of babies when they have rights as well. Especially past a certain term limit
@B433NPW4wks4W
Abortion is a human rights violation. Let's talk about the science and human rights:
1. Science is undoubtedly clear on when human life begins, as 96 percent of biologists confirm that it begins at fertilization.
2. Human rights are for all human beings. The first human right is the right to life- the right to not be killed, which is rooted in natural law. No one has the "right to choose" to end a person's life. We should redefine "bodily autonomy" to include the bodies of unborn children, as parents have a natural obligation to care for their children.
@B42M27WConservative4wks4W
you are killing an alive being
its murder
if a mother wants to abort, the husband should have a say.
a cell is alive, people cant argue that its not alive because it wouldnt be growing
it is human because what else could it be
@B3WKCXR1mo1MO
Life begins in the womb. If you don't want a baby, don't have sex without contraception, and even then, if you get pregnant (which is a tiny percentage of those who actually use contraception properly), there are many people who would gladly raise your child as their own. Replacing natural birth rates with artificially pumped up numbers through immigration is a terrible idea.
@B3PYH7L 1mo1MO
A life is a life, your choice to participate in an act that has a chance to create a life should be approached with more responsibility and education, if you'll participate in the act. Abortion does not equal birth control, you don't have the right to determine whether or not someone gets a life. In the case of rape, that of course is not their choice and abortions then could be considered.
@B3G222K2mos2MO
Life starts before childbirth. To kill a child before child birth is murder. Jeremiah 1:5 God knew us even before we were conceived.
@B2MBKBGNew Democratic3mos3MO
People need to have rights over their own body because once the government starts controlling our physical limitations, we've gone too far
@B2L6JKJ3mos3MO
Life is a gift and not all people are lucky enough to be able to produce a child. I am not against pro-choice, but for me personally, will never abort my child unless it causes life threatening harm to the mother. People should be more careful when having intercourse as they do know the outcome.
@B2B2W863mos3MO
The egg is literally not a child yet, if it was gods plan and god made everything why did god make you get an abortion?
@B255QQW4mos4MO
pro choice is good because you can decide for an abortion and you can not and you can do what ever you want to do
@B2538Y24mos4MO
Its a sin, however it is your own body and you should able to do what is needed especially if your rapped and etc
@9ZXKW5XConservative5mos5MO
It is a crime to Kill a person at any point in life and the Bible says to not murder it also says God made us
With the availability of contraceptives and sex education in Canada, there is no good reason to allow abortion outside of extenuating circumstances such as risks to the mother's life. Abortion as a form of contraceptive is a deplorable waste of a potential person.
@9ZMJ6YW5mos5MO
With contraception being so readily available, the majority of abortions are done because of poor decisions and judgement. In the cases in which consent could not be given (eg. rape, pedophilia) or in the instance of possible major birth defects (incest), I believe it justified. But with the commodification of casual sex in our society, I believe it has become commonplace to receive gratification immediately and consider the consequences later. I believe this is the fault of both men and women, and men are just as responsible for unwanted pregnancies as women. I believe any man who impregnates a woman and abandons her should be subject to large fines (or child support).
@9ZJ8HS7Conservative5mos5MO
Aborting a baby is murdering a child; there's no way around it. If a mother has a miscarriage, it's considered death, but abortion receives different treatment. Having a child requires the commitment of both the mother and the father, a binding through marriage, and a promise to be together until death. If a child is conceived when one or more of these circumstances aren't met, it's life is threatened. How would you feel if you were aborted? One of your friends?
@9ZCSDZY5mos5MO
The only valid argument is religious opposition to terminating a life but that should clearly be overruled by personal choice
@9NBTTYX11mos11MO
A strong counter-argument to the pro-choice position on abortion centers around the ethical consideration of the fetus as a human life with rights. Here are key points often raised in this counter-argument
@9M7GZKB12mos12MO
you want to kill someones chance at life because of someone poor decisions? thats extreme. unless its for extreme medical cases or in the case of rape, abortion should be illegal
@9M2559512mos12MO
your killing a baby, whats more to say?
oh its just "a clump of cells" sorry to break it to you but your a clump of cells buddy
everyone deserves a chance in life
@9LZF4PW12mos12MO
I believe that if there is an egg, there is life and after 5 weeks there is already a heartbeat. Killing a human life is awful especially when there are so many people who cannot become preganant. and then there are the people who are just killing a child whom many people would have loved. There are so many options other than abortion .everyone has the right to live, especially when you are already living. If a mom has sex its her fault for not using protection, so be responsible. if you don't want kids then don't have careless sex, being careless and then just killing the child should not be an option.
@9LT2DMK12mos12MO
If a pregnant woman is killed should it be considered one murder or two? Why should pregnant people have any significance if it is a bundle of cells in there body?
@9LS772L12mos12MO
Life is important, if you don't want baby, why you are pregnent? (except for rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child)
@9LNK7QGConservative12mos12MO
The baby is still human. Killing him should amount to manslaughter. Abortions also increase demographics
problem
On abortion, pro-life should always be the stance as a child is a god-chosen, god-given responisbilty, and if you cant take care of a child, than being irresponsible by risking a chance to be pregnant is just stupid.
@9K4QDYQConservative1yr1Y
no matter which way you put it dont matter how young u are killing a baby and its murder and everyone involved should be charged with first degree murder
@9JY922S1yr1Y
It’s murder of a child. Most abortions happen because of people who do not want to take responsibility for having random sex.
@9JLK6J61yr1Y
Humans and dolphins are the only beings on the planet that breed for pleasure, the act itself is to the purpose of giving birth to a child. Having sex comes with a responsibility to a future life and as soon as you engage in the activity you have already made your choice.
@9HQXYFKConservative1yr1Y
I understand that mistakes may happen, but that is a life and killing it is against God’s glory. I believe every human should have the right to live.
@9HPHHMX1yr1Y
Imagine if you were the baby that was threatening to be killed, you wouldn't have the life you have now. We should protect every life from the time they are conceived in the womb to the time they draw there last breath. You want to protect fricking turtles who have no emotion, and not a human?
@9H8DXHJ1yr1Y
That baby has potential for life that you are stealing, and the unborn babies have no voice to speak up against their murder.
@9H55ZHR1yr1Y
Abortion is not a way out. It is in the case of an extreme measure, and it is not for people who “don’t want a kid right now”. If you made the mistake to get pregnant, you need to deal with the actions.
@9H24J24Conservative1yr1Y
My best counter argument against pro choice comes from the idea that life begins at conception and study have shown that when the sperm enters the egg their is a small flash of light. this is backed up by that the human body emits small amount of light unseen to the eye which proves that at conception life begins.
@9GZKXGY1yr1Y
The killing of a child is never right and people thinking its early so it doesnt matter does not make sense
@9GSPHPS1yr1Y
Abortion gets rid of a life of the future that could've been changed for the better but it was because of a pill that got rid of it.
@9GR4LQG1yr1Y
People should be careful when it comes to having intercourse, and plan ahead if they are financially or mentally able to support a baby. Abortion should only be allowed for those who are raped.
@B3FPFT9Conservative2mos2MO
Murder is a sin, God intended for these people to be born. Also God will deal with the wrong doings.
@B37B2FV 2mos2MO
Killing babies isn't the solution to everything. There are many big issues within the abortion denate. What is the definition of life? When searching for life on other planets and outside of earth in general, we search for single-celled organisms. When killing babies, they are already multi-cellular. The promotion of recklessly enjoying life from a young age and throughout life. Sex is promoted in schools through the distribution of condoms, birth pills and other things. Murder isn't the solution to everything.
@9FL2SWZ2yrs2Y
A life is a life. You do not have the right to take someone's life away. It is not a medical right, as it is wrong. There are many other options available. There are lots of families waiting to adopt, and give the child a better life if you as a mother are unable to provide that for the kid.
@B2YZM472mos2MO
There are a multitude of different prevention plans to prevent one in getting pregnant, if somebody is not careful then it shouldn't be a reason to murder a future life a possible asset to the world
@9FP55CKConservative2yrs2Y
If you got yourself pregnant, and you are capable of providing a life for it, you should have the baby.
@B32GQTD 2mos2MO
I believe that if you decide to allow the baby to grow to having a heart beat and brain function that it should be illegal at that point
@9F6DKPGConservative2yrs2Y
It’s not just your body, it’s also the baby’s. If you aren’t ready for a child, you shouldn’t have had sex. Just go through childbirth. Give it for adoption if you really do not want the baby. But don’t kill.
@9FRY4CS2yrs2Y
Everybody should have a chance at living their best life even if they weren't planned, they can still make an impact on the world just like everybody else.
@B2S3X792mos2MO
that at the life of conception is when life begins weather or not we havea heart beat or not we are still a clumof of cells and in the image of God we are are equal. a child even out of thw women still relies on the mother, so why in thw womb is it differnt.
@B2RX3TQ2mos2MO
Life is sacred. Most people who support abortions are most often than: people who do unsafe sex for the sake of pleasure. and even if a woman is raped, it is not the childś fault to die and not be given the gift of life, however the circumstances of life may seem like a curse but a child is still a person and killing a person is murder, that fetus is still human. That human may somehow find happiness in life or may not but the gift of life should be a gift to anyone, despite the harsh realities of life.
@9GNG2GP1yr1Y
I think the Pro-choice position on Abortion is wrong because whether you decided to be impregnated or not you are now under the responsibility of another life and it is not your choice to take the privilege of life away from someone especially because this person can't defend themselves.
@9GN46RJ1yr1Y
The pro-choice position on abortion is simply wanting to have sex without dealing with any of its responsibilities or consequences, and that is extremely selfish.
Life begins at conception, it is always wrong to intentionally kill an innocent human life, therefore abortion is always wrong
@9GKBYG81yr1Y
If a fetus will become a viable life in 7-9 months, then the only non-arbitrary point of life is at conception; where it is a living and growing organism.
@9GJ6B4J1yr1Y
I believe that God has created and known a child before they are even in the womb and whether or not all parts of the future child are formed in the womb, you are killing a future human being and the possibility of a life. Your body is not your own, God created you.
@9GGPNJV1yr1Y
It's murder, the child shouldn't get killed, it has a purpose in life. The mother shouldn't be able to decide whether a human being dies.
@9GG8PC21yr1Y
my body my choice. A fetus isn't human. Its not murder, it never was. There are so many reasons one could want or need an abortion and forcing a pregnant women to give birth under any circumstance is wrong.
@9GFQNYD1yr1Y
Life begins at inception, and every child deserves the right to life, even if they are special needs.
@9GDC5KF1yr1Y
Abortion policies have historically targeted marginalized communities, people of color and the "undesirable" including disabled people under the guise of scientific eugenics and "fittest for survival" mentality prevailed in the early 20th century, especially in the United States but very much so in Canada as well. Furthermore, abortion is nothing less than murder and ends a life. Science says between 12-16 weeks, the baby is capable of feeling pain and have its nervous system in operation. Women should be aware of where their baby is in development, shown an ultrasound to… Read more
Abortion should only be allowed if there is danger to the mother or child, the mother is a victim of rape or incest, or if they are not old enough to marry.
@9GC7CK41yr1Y
The fetus is going to grow into a living, acting, breathing human. It's essentially murdering a human. You do the act so you have to deal with the consequence. Just like you do the time you do the crime.
@9GB9JRL1yr1Y
If a woman is sleeping around with guys and is just allowed to get an arbortion every time shes pregnant shes going torepeat the same cycle over and over again.
@9G45LVX2yrs2Y
This is a living human being with no choice if it exists or not. Don't end the live before it lives.
@9FWFTBZ2yrs2Y
If you got yourself pregnant, and you are capable of providing a life for it, you should have the baby.
@9G2XZT42yrs2Y
When you are given the choice to abort they are just using fancy words. The real question is will you have this baby or we will help you murder your own baby?
@B4PP23ZConservative 2 days2D
A baby is a human being at the moment of conception and should be treated as such. They deserve a chance to live and it isn't fair or right to give the mother the option to just murder this innocent baby for no apparent reason other than not wanting it or not being ready. You can always put the child up for adoption if the woman isn't ready to raise a child.
