Abortion

[FS]

Damn! I must kill 15 million people a day. Sometimes twice!

Whenever I try to put down my thoughts on abortion, I always end up with hypocrisy and explanations that go nowhere. Simply put, I consider abortion the lesser of two evils, the other being exposing a child to a world that doesn't want it. Brief pain, of which the child is hopefully unaware, compared to a myriad of possible traumatic lives. Don't get me wrong, this doesn't still my conscience. And I pray that I will never be the cause of need for an abortion.

Some time ago, I watched some brief interviews with kids at school aged around 14, talking about sexual protection. Several of the girls mentioned abortion as a perfectly viable solution in case no protection was around, or failed. That greatly disturbed me. Perhaps the procedure of abortion should be described into length of detail in sex ed, or biology classes. Maybe it wouldn't help, but I doubt it would hurt.

It's too bad that making life is so easy.
