Let's just assume, for the sake of argument, that we don't know when life begins. It then makes no sense to err on the side of death for the unborn when there's a chance you may be wrong. Regardless, it's never just a "clump of cells". It's always genetically 100% human.Conserv, my point is simply this, it's a slippery slope and easy to slide off into the abyss before you know what's happening. Make a law today that forbids a woman to have an abortion and tomorrow laws are made that forbid birth control, masturbation, divorce, and many other things.
It's a slippery slope in the other direction also. We've already seen how euthanasia is beginning to gain steam towards being acceptable and recently there was even a professor from a major university (can't remember who right now but I can find it, if necessary) that advocated the killing of children up until two years of age.
Well, that's just fuckin' crazy and he should be launched into outer space.
Another thing that pisses me off is so many of the people against abortion are also trying to stop gays from adopting. Isn't that defeating the purpose? I've got friends who are adopting unwanted children and the children are thriving. Hell, I'd adopt to stop someone from aborting, but right now the world is too consumed with making me and other homosexuals the "bad guys".
I'd let you have gay marriage before letting them adopt kids.
No one isn't saying you can't buttf-ck your boyfriend, but if you want to get married, marry a girl.
How about bisexuals. They've always confused me. Do they flip a coin in the morning to see which way they go that day? At least gays have picked a lane.
But you see, you shouldn't have the right or the power to "let" anyone adopt or not adopt. There are rules that adoption agencies have, if a couple passes those, they should be able to adopt. It's none of anyone else's business.
A normal household: a father (male) and mother (female) should be prefered. Two fathers or two mothers is NOT natural.
Also, I'm not a fan of all this artificial insemination. That should be restricted to married couples (man and woman) who have difficulties having a child. Not the Clay Aiken's and Melissa Etheridge's of the worlds. They should go get laid, the natural way, if they want a kid. Then again, they shouldn't be having kids at all in their unnatural relationships.
