A lot of women feel a man should have little or no say on this subject. Since you did not specify whom you'd like to answer I will give my opinion. I am a man and I do not believe in abortion. Every life has potential. I have heard plenty of arguments concerning rape, incest and any number of other reasons why abortion should be ok. I'm sorry. Other than the mother being in grave danger by carrying the pregnancy to term I can't abide by the elimination of a child. Make no mistake about it. A child is being eliminated. Under no circumstances can I see abortion as birth control being legitimate. Choices should be made before inception, not after. There's my two cents worth. I will also throw out to all who read this. If abortion is legal, how can one be accused of double homicide in the murder of a mother and her unborn child?

I agree I was adopted after my mother had an abortion before me. Many people choose pro choice due to the fact that they feel it is not right for them to decide what a woman should do with her own body. What do i have to say to that :if youre not ready for the consequences, DONT HAVE INTECOURSE!!!!!!!

My Biological Mom aborted before me and decided when I came along that she would give me up for adoption. As far as her physical and emotional state: I really dont know. i just met her last month after 21 years. Adoption is a very serious subject for me, im so against it, even though i believe in pro life, I craved my mothers attention so badly that i didnt want to start something bad the first time i met her. Hope you understand

yeah you know how to pick em'.... I'm a pro-choicer. If God gave us the right to choose then we shouldn't take that away. we do need to be supportive of our family and friends when they make that difficult decision.

I believe the right to choose ends at conception. The choices should have been made before hand.

Definately Pro Life. I dont feel its right for people to have an abortion. Those babies deserve a chance at life too. If the mothers dont want them they should give them up for adoption instead of killing them. To many people out there want babies and cant have them theirselves. So instead of killing them make someone happy.

Pro Choice. History teaches us that freedom is more important than life. To promote life by limiting freedom is a travesty of free-choice and a violation of the very principles most "godly" people claim to be protecting. 80% of all pregnancies end up getting naturally aborted - women piss of 80% of all their fetuses (no offense, but that is how the female bodies work). If you think we have a population problem now - imagine what we would have if 80% more people around :P

Pro life. I don't see what pros there are to pro choice. Murder a baby? It may make life easier for the "mother" but what about that innocent little soul that doesn't deserve to have it's life taken because of it's mother's mistake!

Lets see what the Bible says about it. Pay special attention to vs 16 and 17. Proverbs 6 1My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger, 2Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. 3Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend. 4Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids. 5Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler. 6Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: 7Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, 8Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. 9How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? 10Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: 11So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man. 12A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth. 13He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; 14Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. 15Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. 16These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. 20My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: 21Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. 22When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee. 23For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: 24To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. 25Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids. 26For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adultress will hunt for the precious life. 27Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? 28Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? 29So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent. 30Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; 31But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. 32But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. 33A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. 34For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance. 35He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.

Thats exactly what My point is..... when a baby (yes it is a baby the second a women deosnt have a period) is killed, innocent blood is shed... and for what reason. To get someone out of a pickle, a tough time she might face. Get over it. If you dont want to keep the baby.... ADOPTION!!!

I am definitely pro-life but would never presume to tell someone else what choice to make. I would not have my oldest son if his birth mother had not also been pro-life. Due to her unselfish choice to have her baby, and to place him for adoption, I have received a gift of love and he is here to make an impact on the world...even if it is only on his small oorner of the world. Those who choose abortion will have to live with that choice and the possible consequences here on earth (the risk of infertility, sterility, etc) and after. There are always consequences in everything we do...even if we don't realize it at the time.

Regardless of what the bible says or what people think we all have the right to make our own choices.Which of course means making a choice you have to live with forever.Pro choice.Because not everyone is in a similar situation who questions abortion.Theres many different reasons and thats how I look at it.Like for example If it was me and I was raped and ended up pregnant.That would be a choice I would have to make and it would be so much easier to deal with to not have the people who protest and who feel that its wrong to be saying what they think. Because I dont feel you have a right unless you were in the same situation.Thats just me Im not one to be all up in someones buisness.Maybe if I had gone through it Id feel differently so would alot of people if that was there experience I think those are the only people who have room to talk.
