The name of the religion, and what does it tell about abortion? (HOW does it justify abortion?)

And although I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t like it, but religions were not sent to fulfill an “INDIVIDUAL” spiritual thirst only! There were sent to organize the SOCIETY as a whole too. People shouldn’t assist constitutions to make religions shrink into that “INDIVIDUAL” pathetic shape –especially when those "constitutions" prove as much failure as they have proven up till now; dealing with issue like abortion.

Those lines were really really, honestly, frankly, the most confused set of words I ever ever ever read.

Because after all, to live with the feeling that you were somehow suppressed(deprived from a “right” for example), is better than to live with the feeling that you’ve killed someone. And, no matter what people –like abortionists- try to do to convince themselves that “OK… it’s not killing” it will live with them -at least it will make them live in a dilemma for the rest of there lives (it was killing…. It was not….no … it was … no.. not). And people like you, and instead of helping those women face the fact that it was killing, and help them to lives with it, they try to cozy the whole thing up for them.

Those women have not thought it out right, and they might have been bewildered by people like you maybe, but when abortion is not legislated at all then, at least, they will feel how serious it is, before they make up their minds!

That's the sad part, we're not that educated anymore. And we have some conservatives saying all college is good for is to brainwash good people into being liberal. And some religious people saying that the future is irrelevent because the rapture is coming. And they use these viewpoints to vote for policy. So my guess is that our education system will get much worse before it gets any better.

After re-reading this whole thread (yeah, it took me a while), I've concluded that there is no such thing as anti-abortion logic. Only anti-abortion feelings, sentiments, and 'reasons' for being anti-abortion that have to do with a higher power. Logic, no matter who is using it, says that abortions make sense in some circumstances and therefore they should be optional for everybody. If you are one who disagrees with abortions on a spiritual or emotional level, don't have one. There, now everyone should be happy.

Man, what planet are you on? Substitute the word "murder" for "abortion" throughout your paragraph, and the same non-sensical, moronic conclusion still holds! Brilliant!
Tell me you posted that after coming home from the bars or something...

There are a lot of logical reasons to not murder that don't have to do with a higher power. The only reasons anyone has brought up against abortion have to do with a higher power.
If murder=abortion, and murder is always wrong, then how can war be justified by a religious person. It can't. But religious people support wars anyway. If abortion is always wrong, wars are always wrong. Since it is clear that wars are not always wrong, then abortions are not always wrong either.

Anti-abortion, pro-warists are much moreso. That's my argument. But you are correct, both sides are completely hypocritical when it comes to the issue of justifying murder.
The pertinant argument, however, is this. Wars will happen, and most of them will be justified in the minds of those involved. That means that people are justifying murder for political/nationalistic gain. That means that even if you believe abortions are murder(which many people don't), there are times when murder is justified. If there are times when murder is justified, then abortions can be justified by the same people who justify war. So if you believe that there are good reasons to go to war, then you are hypcritical and blind if you simultaniously believe that there is never a good reason for an abortion.

The hypocrisy that is inherent in religion makes your argument against abortion unintelligible.
Two different things!- abortion, and war. War\killing can be justified when the “other side” behaves in a manner, that is harmful to a country’s land, or ones’ life. Abortion is not the same; you simply don’t have enough “prosecution” against that fetus to justify killing it –“constitutionally” speaking!
Have you ever been a practicing religious individual through your life-time so far?! –you see, this is the only notion, for me, that would make me think of you as “eligible” to claim that there is hypocrisy inherited in, only, the religion that you’re practicing. Otherwise, you’re not eligible for such a claimer!
