you're jumping conclusions.
The Bible says, stand behind what you know to be true, and don't fear people for the bad things they will do to you. The heavier things of the Law are 1)righteous judgment 2)love mercy 3)walk humbly with your God. And that's about how to compose yourself and not about 'others'. I do agree that too many are imposing their beliefs on others. It's not only 'religious' folks though, the censorship from nonbelievers is just as bad.
The point is, that there's an incentive being pushed with big-money. Since when is big-money interested in people. Must be something else on the agenda. And it's sadly working; how many people don't even dare to explain what the difference between a man and a woman is anymore.. come on ( :) )
imo, abortions should stay a medical practice. It's now going to the extreme that life can be wasted even up to just before delivery! All because grown ups can't constain themselves. Lusting after sex is not the same as intercourse expecting a child. And life in the womb is not just a lump of cells. (have you seen this abortion information?)
That is a lie, and shows a complete lack of how a baby is even formed. I work in a level 1 trauma center as a clinical pharmacist. We have had fetuses that have been born as early as 23 weeks and survived but its RARE (age of viability is usually agreed to be 24 weeks) ... a healthy fetus will not be aborted past 24 weeks without serious health issues for either the fetus or the mother.
According to the CDC:
Once again, the age of viability is considered 24 weeks. So, of that 0.9% we do not know how many could be between 21-24 weeks. So, this BS of abortion at birth is right-wing talking points to take away rights from woman.
Finally, let me just say that the thing that makes me the most pissed off and sick to my stomach is how woman and girls who are raped are forced to carry to term an abomination inside them. They got no choice when they were being raped, and the get no choice to move past that horrible moment in their life. Girls as young as 10 years old, are raped and forced to carry a baby for 9 months, have a C-section because their vaginal canals are too small. Almost every conservative state that banned abortion after the supreme court, purposely left out the carve outs for rape or incest. That is disgusting.
Oh also, women are being forced to bleed out in their cars before they can be seen for an abortion, or have sepsis before a doctor will even touch them!

Let me be clear again; Planned parenthood is not in it for rape victims! if you think so, imo you're deceived. instead of providing fetus removal as a fix, grown ups should not sleep around before mutual comitment. There are too many broken homes already. Abortion should stay a medical procedure, in case of medical complications and special situations.
That indeed is horrible reality for the kids. i'm not saying ban abortion. I'm saying don't normalize it.
That's horrible indeed. Why the c-section part is missing? They must have addressed the rape topic during legislation.
What i learned of abortion victims (via an event i went), is the missing aftercare at "planned parenthood" for women thinking abortion is a pretty mild procedure, but found out the hard way and are left with trauma.
