I never considered causing pain to another human to be a solution and saw him as my silver lining. I now have a 16 yr old, 6′4 son who has been an absolute delight to have in my life and others’.

Obviously this isn’t the only reason people have terminations and I am no way an expert on everyone’s situations. But I would hope people would give a thought for life.

What never makes sense in my head is – what kind of person applies for the job of pulling a baby from it’s mother’s womb, ramming scissors onto the back of its tiny head (sometimes decapitating it) and proceeding to suck it’s brains out?

I think if you were to find out your cat or dog had the same treatment in a veterinary surgery – there would be uproar!

I personally find it digusting that the world is ready for these images. The human race is often spoilt and selfish. Not always, but often.

Am I reading your post correctly? Are you saying that the horrors are (1) going through the trial, (2) pregnancy, and (3) raising the baby?

Does this mean we should [1] help her kill the child, [2] not prosecute the pedophile father, and [3] aid in the cover up so she can pretend her life is good.

This only works until he rapes her again. Sometimes the necessary good thing to do can be difficult.

Coming forward as a victim of rape is hard. Even more so when it is incest. Going through a trial to prevent the pedophile rapist from having access to other children is excruciating.

Giving birth to a little baby is difficult, and can be painful without an epidural. But abortion can be painful, and even sometimes fatal, oh and sorry no epidural.

Making the decision to give your baby up for adoption is a tough one. You will wonder “what if?” for the rest of your life. You will also wonder “what if?” if you keep your child.

There are no easy answers, but I would not want to live in a world where people felt reporting the rape, and prosecuting the criminal were not worth the horrors of enduring the system.

I know what I am talking about having had both my daughters come to me after G-Pa raped them. (This at 8 & 10). It has been horrible, but in talking to them they are both glad we chose to go to the police. Something about enduring a horrible experience becomes better when you reach the end, and find you stood for something good.

There is no good in a unplanned dead child, but being a unplanned child myself I personally find life, though difficult, a good choice.

Grace and Peace to you Kimberly.

You’ve seen the pictures of what partial-birth abortion does to a living child, but have you seen the pictures to what a first trimester does to a living child at 7 weeks?

If you haven’t, I suggest you go to abortionno.org or abort73.com. After you have seen those pictures, please answer this question: What’s the difference?

What’s the difference between partial-birth and first trimester abortions? It is clearly a living human being at 7 weeks. You can see the individual fingers and toes, the mouth, nose, eyes – practically everything. How does anyone else’s rights justify hacking a living human child to pieces?

Another thing, if god “knows ye before you were in the womb”, and every pregnancy is god’s intention, what is the intention of spontanious abortion, or “miscarriage” that occurs so frequently…often when before a woman is even aware that she is pregnant?

Indeed, the photos are disturbing, and a partial-birth abortion is sick and wrong I believe. However, 99% of abortions are performed at or before 12 weeks of development. At this stage, the fetus feels no pain. The cheif reasons that women obtain abortions are rape, incest, extremely severe medical problems the developed child would have, and endangerment of a mother’s life, should she carry the pregnancy.

There is no doubt that I am against partial birth abortion, which is proceedure illustrated, performed on a near-term developed baby. Legislation banning this practice I definitely support. I believe most other pro-choice people would as well. Mind you, the federal “”"”Partial Birth Abortion Ban”"”" contained many compontents other than banning partial-birth; including tight restrictions on early-term abortions, and even issues of women’s rights to seek reproductive health care.

While it’s only right to protect developed babies from partial-birth abortion….is it right to forbid a 13-year old who was raped by her step-father to terminate her life-shattering pregnancy at 8 weeks of development?

We must consider the extremities included in a whollistic ban.
