How dare you impose your opinions onto other women, it angers me that people like you want to take women's rights away. The bottom line is you do not believe in abortion that is fine, that is your life no one is ever going to force you to get an abortion. Just don't impose your opinion onto other people and take this right away. It will do more harm than good. Its uneducated, its primal and it just shows how corrupt you really are you cannot be happy until you have controlled someone else's mind by making them believe in what you believe. That is the ultimate power and that's what you're trying to achieve.
You preach and you pray and you try so hard to force non believers to join your ranks. The bottom line is those who believe that abortion is wrong don't get abortions. So whats the big deal? Would you feel happy knowing if there was a ban on abortion across the world? Of course you would you would be so happy seeing the rights over a woman's body taken away of course you would be happy seeing the world become more and more overpopulated when natural resources are stretched beyond their limit, when rain forests are cut down to make more room for humans. Of course you will be happy when contraception is harder and harder to get and the pill becomes more and more expensive every year. Don't you see the government is doing this so that more and more poor uneducated people are stuck raising children. Increasing numbers of uneducated poor people are easier to control than people who have money, can afford university and can think for themselves.
I have differing opinions to yours as to where life begins and no amount of stupid scenarios you paint will ever change my opinion, it just angers me you feel that the whole world should follow you. How dare you try and take a woman's right to choose away. You're more evil than a dictator.
Wake up look around you look at the world, some people are so overwhelmed at having a baby they throw them off a bridge. In China baby girls are born then thrown in the street. In third world countries millions of children are born to extreme poverty everyday and your only concern is a middle class woman getting rid of her unwanted pregnancy? You're so blind you don't consider the current state of children in the world. Living breathing innocent children who are just thrown away. Maybe because you don't see that in your comfortable little room where you write this garbage your mind so set inward that you can only preach to the middle class women.
Its hard enough accessing safe abortion that must make you so happy. Happy to see women suffering happy to see more unwanted children born into the world then given up for adoption. Do you realise what would happen when these children are told somewhere down the track that they were adopted? Could you imagine dealing with the pain and the trauma that follows.
Have you watched the news of mothers killing their children stuffing their bodies in suitcases and throwing it into the river. Or how a man who hated his wife so much drove his car into a dam and drowned his 3 beautiful sons? Or how a newborn was found dead in a sanitary napkin bin?
So keep your stories of IV cables, time machines and baking cakes to yourself these are nowhere near close to anything a woman deals with when pregnant. Its their choice not yours, take your meddling words and go bother other people stupid enough to not see through your little speech, its all about control the more people you can get thinking like you the more content you will be, its human nature. You don't give two shits about someone else's unborn child or the mother.

"The point is, you don’t know what they will be, maybe a bad person, maybe a good person."
What they may potentially be is irrelevant. I talked about this in my review of your other story.
You write well, especially for someone so young, but analogies don't actually prove anything.
"It’s called cake batter, isn’t it?"
Playing along with your analogy, I wouldn't deny that a foetus is a *human* foetus, though I wouldn't say 'human' every time I referred to it because it goes without saying. In a discussion on abortion I'd hardly be talking about a pig foetus.
"Sometimes there are flaws in the cake, like it’s lopsided or a little undercooked, but it’s still cake, and it still tastes good."
And sometimes it's burned so badly it's carcinogenic, or perhaps you forgot some vital ingredient, so you throw it away.
"Then, it’s called cake, or uncooked cake, or cake batter. They are all the same."
I take it you've never caught salmonella from raw eggs then?
"Let’s say you accidentally added 2 milk instead of vitamin D milk. Does that make the cake taste terrible?"
Possibly. I don't know what '2 Milk' is.
"Is it such a difference that it’s not worth baking?"
If it's milk that's off and will make you sick, or will produce a cake that's no one will want to eat, then yeah, it's not worth baking.
"When you combine these two sexual cells in a person, with time and patience, you make a fully developed baby."
Sometimes. It's not a given. It actually fails more often than not, usually very early in the process. But yes, combining those two cells may eventually produce a fully developed baby.
"It’s only when you combine them together that they are called a baby. What about the unborn baby? Is it a baby? Well, it’s the combination of the sperm and egg, it just hasn’t been developed. It’s a baby in an earlier stage, it just needs time to develop, and then it has feelings and a personality and all the other basics of a born baby, if you let it. It’s called anunborn baby, isn’t it?"
The different stages of development have different specific names (zygote, foetus), and I explained in my review of your other story why I consider the development of the brain to be the most important part (ie. in short that that it can only be once it has a brain that a baby can start to become a *person*).You don't seem to have attempted to address that argument at all, presumably because you can't.
"Let’s say you were raped by a stranger now instead of a husband years from now. Does that make the baby evil or unworthy of life?"
You're attacking a straw man there. No one has argued that the baby is evil or unworthy of life.
"No, it’s still a human"
I didn't see anyone argue that foetuses weren't human, either. I certainly didn't.
"Please pro-choice people, do you understand what I’m saying?"
Yes. I understand, I just don't agree with you.
"Do you know now how morally wrong abortion is now, because of this metaphor?"
No. Like I said, an analogy doesn't prove anything.

"She is now pregnant with the man who could cure cancer. You plan to kill the underdeveloped man before he was born, and not harm the mother."
Imagine this: Some Mofuck plans to use his time machine to foil the delivery of The Man Who Could One Day Cure Cancer. To prevent this tragedy from happening, you intend to execute actions that you deem as righteous and honorable: employ your own time machine to go back and prevent the birth of the Mofuck. Destroy the Mofuck in his mother's womb before he becomes an actual infection to the human race. 'Why stop there?' you ask yourself. 'There's Hitler. And Osama Bin Laden. And so many other assholes that never should have been given the opportunity to enter this world.'
Unfortunately you will be known as a 'murderer' to some. Will you be able to live with that?
"It is NOT okay to kill someone because it is unknown of there future. I don’t know what my future is, so why should I deserve to die like the unborn babies?"
What the . . . ? Simply put, what the fuck?
"To that I say that though it might not think or feel, but it still has the potential to think or feel."
But that 'potential' should not determine or overrule the health and life and rights of the actual living being. The 'potential' stance only creates a huge pile of dung for any argument.
"Murder of a human is wrong, at any stage of growth and life."
You see fetuses as humans; some don't. I'm not here to tell you that you're wrong and they're right, or vice versa, for I do not care. What I do care about is CHOICE - the freedom and control over my own body. Indeed, I am pro-choice on every single issue that I can think of, not just abortion.

Don't worry; I will try to be a little more considerate in this review. Still, it is best that you understand that my criticisms are seldomly directed at your beliefs (or anyone else's, for that matter) but at the lack or absence of logic behind your thoughts. Now that I have that out of the way, let's move on, shall we:
"You have a choice, either say no and let this innocent man die, or say yes and be his lifeline until he recovers. Will you do this favor for this man?"
Yes, of course. I'll go as far as to donate my fetus to medical research efforts that can help save this man's life. But if saving him puts my own life in danger in anyway, then he's on his own.
"Will you let this child live, and not have an abortion?"
Again, that decision shouldn't be made by anyone but the mother.
"Or will you murder the baby growing and developing inside you, and let it die a horrible death, of no joys or pleasures?"
You call it 'murder'; I call it 'mercy killing'. Tomayto, tomahto. Whatever. Personally I will do what I think is right and disregard the opinions of the minions who consider themselves morally superior.
You know, what I find truly disturbing is knowing that you are against birth control and contraceptive devices that I believe reduce the occurrence of unwanted pregnancies - and the spread of STDs - thus needless to say will also ease the number of abortions. Would you like to explain that?
"I personally can’t imagine killing my own daughter or son, my own flesh and blood."
Then don't. Nobody's forcing you to.

We can argue for hours about abortion. I like the example of your first text- but I still partly disagree.
I think there are circumstances where abortion could be used. When a woman gets raped, for example. You have to imagine the situation - I personnally wouldn't be able to put my child for adoption, so if it happens to a woman that thinks like that too, she'd have to live with that memory. Although selfish said like that, it all depends of how you see it.
I know that people tend to abuse of abortion - they use more as contraception than something you do only once and never want to live again. It's too simple, you get an abortion whenever you need to.
But when you get pregnant, you're 16 years old and it wasn't planned, it just changes all your life. I think it's better to get an abortion than giving birth to a child that you can't even take of properly because you're not ready.
In a perfect world, we should make the decision of having children only when we're ready because it's not only about your life, it's the kids' lives too.
Personnally, I don't think I'd be able to get an abortion except in extreme cases. But my opinion, in short is, it really REALLY depends on the circumstances.
Well, this may look messed up because I'm tired. But I think you've got a good and powerful text, and even though I don't agree with everything said, it was still convincing.
Keep it xtreme,

This chapter strikes me as silly and irrelevant to your argument that abortion is wrong.
I had previously ignored this story precisely because you advertised in the other one, but since someone mentioned in a review that it was related to the topic (though you didn't explain that yourself when you were plugging it) I got curious. I am reviewing chapter 2.
The example of the man with cancer is not a very good one, as most people would consider jealosy of someone's discovery that would save lives to be a very stupid reason to go back in time and kill them. The dilemma would be much more compelling if they were going back to kill someone who was going to cause great harm to many people, like, say, killing Hitler as a foetus.
It is, in any case, not really relevant to the case of abortion, since you have no reason to assume that any given foetus will survive and grow up to cure cancer, or indeed do anything noteworthy at all.
'It is NOT okay to kill someone because it is unknown of there future.'
You need to work on your grammar a little there.
'The point of this Imagine chapter is because people argue that since the fetus cannot think or feel, it is worthless'
Who argued that? Show me. I certainly didn't. I do think that is, under some circumstances at least, okay to kill a foetus, and I wouldn't if it could feel pain and fear. However, that doesn't mean I think it is worthless. I talked about that in my review of your other opinion piece.
'Murder of a human is wrong, at any stage of growth and life.'
You keep throwing the word 'murder' around. Murder is, by definition, the *unlawful* killing of another human. Therefore, regardless what you may think of the morality of it, abortion is not murder unless it is illegal.

6/8/2005 c2 2Eada Nami
Hey, Eada here. Ok, I won't go over everything, because I just spent around an hour doing that in your other essay =P. If I saw someone on T.V. who had found a cure for cancer, I don't really think I'd be jealous. I mean, come one, his cure is going to save millions of people. If you were to go back in time to when his mum was pregnant, that would be interesting. True, she didn't choose to abort the baby, but she could've. It was her choice to keep the child and it would've been her choice to have it aborted. True, in an abortion, you never know what that person could have done. However, they could have done something great, but, they could turn out to be the next most dangerous cereal killer, robber, gangster, or rapest. When you get an abortion, the fetus doesn't feel what is going on. I could say something on potential, but I already did in your other essay. That's all I really have to say right now. Best wishes and keep going. Eada

I'm not sure what I'd do. I can't really agree or disagree with your essay. It's a very powerful essay, but since I'm not Catholic (no offence to your religion), I'd say the choice would depend on the situation and circumstances.

I would answer No to the first one. It would be great if atleast someone found the cure for cancer. If not me then atleast there is a cure. Besides, I'd want to go in time and meet DeVinci or Pacaso because I like their art. (P.S. I'm not into the DeVinci code, just his art.)
The second one I would also answer no. I'll take my chances and find out what happens. I wouldn't want to kill my own baby whether it was going to do good or bad because who knows what would happen? I'll take the chance.

6/7/2005 c1 LoveOnFire
Wow, that really is something to think about. with the first one, I'm not sure what I would do. I hope if i was put in that situation that I would let the man live off of me and I know for a fact that I would never have an abortion becasue I think it's sick and it's murder.
I do have one suggestion though, if you are going to ask peoples opinions about what they would do you should probably keep your opinions out of the situtation. (This may sound mean but that's not what I'm trying to sound like.) But if you want someone to give you their honest opinion instead of people thinking taht if they get an abortion or don't let a man live off of them that they are killers.
I agree with your pro-life stand all the way. I'm just suggesting another way to go about explaining it to someone else.

I gotta say, I like it when people use metaphors properly, and you did just that. Did you consider however that it may be different than you're saying? It could be a choice between giving that man life for a few months then both of you dying. It could be saving the man's life at the cost of your own. It could be saving the man's life so that he can live in extensive pain for the rest of that life. Not trying to bash the work (as I said, well done witht he metaphor) but this, like so many others, is not a one sidded issue, and can't be treated as one.
P.S.You mentioned in your profile that you read religious stuff. Try reading my essay 'Misunderstanding God'. Thanks.
37The-Duke-of-CharlesI gotta say, I like it when people use metaphors properly, and you did just that. Did you consider however that it may be different than you're saying? It could be a choice between giving that man life for a few months then both of you dying. It could be saving the man's life at the cost of your own. It could be saving the man's life so that he can live in extensive pain for the rest of that life.
