Thanks DeBurca for that information and I appreciate you understanding my post.

Since the pro-choice folks want to dismiss the recent abortion poll because of "sampling size", does that mean those of us on the right can dismiss the polls showing Obama’s 60% approval rating for the same reasons? Rasmussen has conducted this poll for many years. This is the first time pro-life has dominated. I wonder if you pro-choice folks embraced this same poll in August when the pro-choice % was 50 and pro-life was 44%?

Maybe people are using logic and realizing what abortion really is. All of us passed through the gestation stage of development or we wouldn’t be here today. Is it any less agregious to kill a baby than a 10 year old? Or to kill a 12 year old than an adult? All humans pass through all of these stages of development, hopefully, but they are humans through every stage.

We know that making something legal does not make it morally acceptable. If abortion was illegal, there would still be abortions, just not as many. Similar to murder—it is illegal, yet murder still occurs. What if we made murder legal—do you think there would be or less murders? If there are no consequences to your actions, then you are less apt to comply, that what society is for—to uphold our consciences. 

I applaud the President for going to Notre Dame and discussing the issue of differing stands on abortion.  How sad that some could not listen with respect to what the President had to say.

After all, he was invited there to speak and share his wisdom and knowledge with the graduating class.

 

God bless Mr Obama to have the guts to address this thorny issue in front of Catholic double standard.  In Catholic countries, well to do women have abortions -even though it is illegal- in the best sanitary conditions, paying huge fees for this right of choice & poor women died by the thousands in septic neglect.  Someone has to be brave enough to call spade a spade & remind the world that women have the right to choose. 

Everyone seems to think that if you say you are Pro Choice that it automatically means you agree with ALL abortions well that is far from the case I would say.  Many like myself I’m sure believe in a woman’s right to choose what to do with her own body as that is a personal choice, but abortion is not a form of birth control in my opinion and that is where I draw the line at abortion!   In other cases of rape and incest I do agree with abortion no one should be made to have a child conceived in that manner, but that is my own personal opinion on that of course.
