		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The point is that you can’t even know for sure you are pregnant, normally until about 6 weeks, when there is a heartbeat already.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

And here anti-choicers show everyone just how ignorant they are on biology.  It always amazes me that they don&#039;t even know the most rudimentary facts.</description>

		<description>You&#039;re no liberal.  You&#039;re a misogynist who pretends.

&lt;blockquote&gt;How do you know that the fetus you are aborting won’t one day save the world?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Ooh logical fallacies, fun!  how do you know it won&#039;t be another Hitler?

&lt;blockquote&gt;but at least that child has the chance to live.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Ah yes, imaginary babies are so much more important than those useless incubators, uh,I mean, women. 

&lt;blockquote&gt;Adoption is always an option. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Oh yes, Privilege, tell us all about how easy it is.  I&#039;m sure you know exactly what it is to be every pregnant woman on earth, so you have all the answers for every woman, everywhere.

Here&#039;s the thing, misogynist, keeping abortion legal doesn&#039;t force anyone to do anything - that&#039;s why it&#039;s called CHOICE.  Removing that choice is to subject women everywhere to YOUR will, which is neither liberal or sane. 

If you don&#039;t like abortion, don&#039;t have one.  That&#039;s the end of your invovlement in the matter.</description>

		<description>I am generally a liberal person, but not when it comes to abortion.  The statements about &quot;does our death rate go up if a fetus doesn&#039;t implant&quot;... UM NO GENIUS.  The point is that you can&#039;t even know for sure you are pregnant, normally until about 6 weeks, when there is a heartbeat already.  A fetus that doesn&#039;t implant is nobody&#039;s fault, that cell didn&#039;t even develop, it happens.   Adoption is always an option.  There is a chance that life wont&#039; be so great for that child that is adopted or put into the system, but at least that child has the chance to live.  How do you know that the fetus you are aborting won&#039;t one day save the world?</description>

		<description>Thank you molly. I very much agree with you.

JackGoff, I welcome criticism, and that was the whole point of enticing an argument! It helps me look at different perspectives and be challenged by more questions, so I can better refine my own argument. 

Louise, I commend you for arguing. But it&#039;s obvious that those “Wham, BAM, thank you, ma’am, and out the door&quot; moments do occur and there are an uncountable number of self-centered men out there that are low enough to do those things, but ultimately, who gets pregnant? Not the man. I agree he needs to take responsibility. But don&#039;t worry, it would have been better for him if he had stayed and taken responsibility. He will eventually get what he deserves.

&quot;So I should absolutely love an undeveloped multicellular organism so much that I would willingly die to preserve it at the expense of my existing children?

I don’t think so. I love my existing children too much to abuse them by taking their Mommy away.&quot; - Tapetum

Mommies are &lt;em&gt;SUPPOSED&lt;/em&gt; to have unconditional love for &lt;em&gt;ALL&lt;/em&gt; their children, not just the ones that they can interact with. I would readily die for one of my children without hesitation rather than cower at the fear of death and use excuses like &quot;I love my other kids too much to deprive them of me.&quot;</description>

		<description>I am one who is of the opinion that if you (man or woman) have sex, you should accept responsibility for your actions.  You can&#039;t, of course, have control over your sexual partner&#039;s choices, only your own.

I do not judge women who&#039;ve felt the need to have abortions.  I&#039;ve never been in their shoes...I was scrupulously careful not to be, and it seems like one of those choices that will leave you forever changed, so think very carefully.  Carefully, when choosing a sexual partner.  Carefully, when choosing whether to engage in sex.  Carefully, if there are far-reaching ramifications of your sex act.

What I&#039;m wondering is why pro-choice arguments seem to require so much name-calling?  Do the words &quot;stupid&quot; and &quot;moron&quot; help to validate your points?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;8) This answer is remarkably simple. When women have sex, they are accepting responsibility that pregnancy might occur. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Speaking of &quot;simple&quot;, Justin; the sex you&#039;re referring to involves a MAN as well, who may NOT want to accept responsibility when that pregnancy occurs. But, hey! &quot;Wham, BAM, thank you, ma&#039;am&quot; and out the door, right? Not the MAN&#039;S problem...

You are a complete moron.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Now argue with me.&lt;/i&gt;

Thanks for showing how truly insipid and moronic most pro-life people are, Justin.  You performed admirably, albeit grossly misogynist.</description>
