That doesn't mean I don't sympathise with women who struggle with the choice... I just know there are better options that don't involve killing unborn children. |
such as?

You can't be serious.

I think that's a fair question...
Oh, and I'm pro-choice, although I personally don't condone partial-birth abortions... (seems like a contradiction, I know, but I don't think it is)

Did you know that (or at least last time I checked) the term 'partial-birth abortion' was coined by pro-life proponents and is not actually a medical/scientific term. It basically has emotional baggage attached to it-therefore appealing to emotions instead of calling it ,say third-trimester abortion.

If that child has a central nervous system then killing it should be a crime... women often naturally flush out embros that are fertilized anyway. I'm not arguing that the term is right or wrong, but it has merit. I'm sure that even you would cring at the site of one of those abortions... nothing like watching what is clearly a human with an caved in head get ripped out of a woman's vigina.

First off I have to say that I thought I was responding to someone else. Even so, I think your missing the point of what I'm saying. The term has merit only in a sense that it demonizes the idea of abortion clearly in it's statement. Partial-birth? Wtf is that. It doesn't even make sense unless the doctor totally fucked up his job.
I would cringe watching an abortion. What's your point? I'd also cringe from cleaning out sewers, doing liposuction, killing people with missiles from 35,000 feet in the air, going to a slaughterhouse, etc. I don't see what you were getting at with the whole cringing thing. I agree though I wouldn't rent tapes of abortions as a nice weekend movie, that's for sure.
