My God, Raven. I didn't think I would have to put up with these kinds of ramblings once I finished Religion class at school. But, whatever, if you want a fight, then HAVE AT YOU!

I believe that abortion is not a problem, up to a point. I think that after the first three months, it should be against the law, but before that point, anything goes. Before three months, the fetus has no human traits, and there is no proof that it can feel anything, so how is that human?

And what about pregnancies that are a result from rape? Why would it be wrong for someone to abort the baby for that reason? That could ruin the girl's life if she had to go through with it, and that wouldn't be fair to anyone. Sure, it isn't the baby's fault that she got pregnant, but it isn't her's, either.


Another thing that disturbs me is this. I heard that a while ago in Catholic hospitals, if there were complications during the pregnancy, they would still refuse to abort, even if it meant the girl would die, because, well, "she had a chance to live, the baby hasn't." That is just fucked up.

And trying to make abortion illeagal is just forcing religious beliefs on a society that has a freedon to choose one's beliefs. If those beliefs do not agree with other people, then a debate is inevitable, but religion has NO PLACE in government WHATSOEVER! If you don't believe that abortion is right, don't have one. But don't ruin other people's lives for the sake of your beliefs. We don't share them.
