Great... Thanks for depressing me....

And I agree, TO HELL WITH ABORTION!!!!!!

God do I feel sad and down now....

I don't think there is a story to it , some sick person came up with the ing idea to put those pictures on the net..

Chinese people do eat babies.... They also eat dogs, cats, rats, snakes, worms, squirrels, chimunks, mice, gerbils, hamsters, and anything else that was alive at one point and that has some sort of meat....

Damn Communist!!!!!!!

Oh that's really horrible.

The BBC recently aired a really interesting documentary following the development of a baby, and they used new techniques to capture 3D images of it's growth, it was truly incredible. At around 12 weeks the foetus is perfectly formed and practices breathing, crying, sucking it's thumb etc.

It's prompted many medical professionals to call for the abortion limit to be lowered.

It's terrible that so many pregnancies are terminated every single day, sometimes it's medically necessary, but in most cases it's just an unplanned pregnancy. More education is needed and for goodness sake practice safe sex, not only to prevent unwanted pregnancies but for your own health.

Abortion is a horrible crime and goes against God's teachings and even basic human ethics....

Agreed, but what if a pregnancy is indangering the life of the mother? Would you be willing to lose both lives?

Unfortunately Liban it's never as cut and dried as that!

What if the baby is horrifically deformed and will endure a life of suffering?

You have to look at all aspects, and I would hope that you are never faced with such a difficult decision to make.

Nothing wrong with being deformed, the severely disabled people do/can also enjoy life to the max, I used to think like you untill I met some disabled people and realised that how wrong I had been all my life, although these people were suffering and some were deformed in one way or another but they were so full of life that they put the us "normal" people to shame.... Imagine if their parents were selfish enough not to give them the chance to live ...

I agree that sometimes people have no choice but to go through abortion,

I meant more in terms of abortion under normal cirumstances as in no threat to the mother nor anything negative to the baby but the baby is still aborted...

Abortions as a result of pre-marital intercourse, or pregnancies during marriage due to not taking proper precautions, or any other kind of pregnancy like this where the baby is perfectly normal and the mother has a good body to bear a child should be banned.

Besides in under 10 weeks (which is what this should be reduced to), a doctor is not 100% accurate in predicting what ailments, if any, could inflict the child at a later point in time.

Ali, don't get me wrong, I used to work in a school for kids with disabilities and they were the most amazing children I've seen in my life and that taught me alot. There's nothing more gratifying than when you see that childs face light up with a big grin because of something you've done to make them happy.

But some people are selfsih and don't want to take on the responsibility which is awful, but I guess you have to look at each case.

Liban, thanks for putting a little more thought into your argument, that's what you should've done the first time instead of just saying 'NO' in all cases.
The marriage thing has nothing to do with anything, accidents do happen, even if you're practicing safe sex, look at the woman who was on the pill for years! She conceived whilst on the pill and is now expecting quads! (with her husband). Now this could also be a problem, as with multiple babies there's always a chance that some of them might not survive the pregnancy. Years ago there was a woman expecting 8 babies, which is quite dangerous to attempt to carry to full term, she was told that she should abort some of the feotuses to give the others a chance of survival. She refused and ALL the babies died. - what would you do?

I would support a case by case basis. Like in the case of the octoplets which I am sure is a result of fertility treatments and hence not of God's doing.

But the case by case study can be open to abuse and would have to be very stringent. I doubt we have such an effective system worldwide...

Hey now..I resent that.
You cannot simply say "Chinese eats babies".
You need to put the word "some" infront of that.

I don't eat babies :p
Although chipmunks does sound kinda.... tasty....

I EAT SWINE!!!!!!!
