Pro-life or Pro-choice??

Too bad. You have to go through 9 months of pregnancy for a baby you are going to put up for adoption.

That's cool for most cases. Without getting into the problems that come along with Adoption and the adoption system, I'd like to focus on just two problems:

1. Health of the Mother - Pregnancy is not easy. There are a lot of problems that can come with Pregnancy, and, in many of those, it's the health of the mother that's an issue. To force people not to abort means that, in some cases, you're choosing the life of the child vs the life of the mother. You can know about many of these problems as early on as the three months mark, and sometimes the same woman can't give birth to another baby after having already given birth to others previously. When the health of the mother is in jeopardy, do you still maintain that they should just go over the 9 months and then put the baby up for adoption?

2. Health of the Baby - That might not even be an option, the mother could not have health enough to carry the baby for 9 months, and, if it's too early, the baby itself might even die anyway, so you waste 2 lives. And there are tons of diseases that are hereditary that do not allow for healthy babies to form, and if someone does get a baby, you're condemning that baby to die in uterus or just a few seconds after being born, and that's very risky for the mother, when you could have killed it before it had any sort of sentience. And I'm not even speaking about sub-par lives, where the baby is born severely deformed but could live for some years, I'm speaking about actual death, but death at a point where the baby can suffer already.

Pro life. Choice is okay if having a baby can be potentially put your life and health in danger or the baby will suffer some form of extremely bad disease/defect.

nope. the base has spoken. Raising a child should be seen as a punishment for poor life choices and unfortunate circumstances.

Because that's fair for the child... and a healthy perspective...

I am pro-life except for the exemption cases that are typically mentioned.

I was pro-choice (mostly because i didn't have a preference), until I saw the images.

Pro-choice obviously. Let's focus on more important matters for now such as pedophiles taking seats of authority and the overall quality of life on this sh1t stain prison planet before people try to force their religious logic onto others.

What about rape, poor-living conditions, immaturity, medical complications, inherited diseases, broken condoms, etc etc?

Rape and broken condoms are the only factors relevant to this topic. There is the fact that a rape victim didn't choose to be pregnant but neither did a large majority hence why they're aborting. The only difference is, they didn't choose to have *** so one chose to take the risk while the other was forced into it. Regardless, the rape victim not doing abortion would be the moral thing. Besides, doing abortion would just further weigh on their mind that is already traumatized by the incident that lead to their pregnancy, if they have a conscience that is. Overall, I don't see rape justifying abortion, if they choose to go through it with however, atleast don't lie about your intentions or reasons for doing it. Also, such a person is already suffering so their decision won't be a rational one for obvious reasons. There is no right answer to the issue on abortion, atleast not untill we create the technology to develop a baby in lab conditions.
