Thread: Adult-Fetuses For Healthcare [Life] Unite!

The GOP professes endlessly to be "pro-life"...unless that life is already born. Even just days after it is born, they gladly would turn it out into a family that has no provisions or ability to provide for it. That's what you do when you require poor women to carry every single pregnancy to term: you condemn fetuses to death. What's their obsession that the only sacred life is one that still has an umbilical cord attached?

Discuss. [My vote was for the last option so that makes me "Pro-Life".]

You know what I love about you...people assume you're one thing and you're not. That's awesome.

BTW, the honest answer is that some would say the moment they're born it's sink or swim (sins of the Father and all that) and other would say until they drop dead.

It's bizarre because pre-birth the baby could be sucking its thumb and chilling out and people are fine with sucking it out via force or putting instruments in the brain and the same person who would care for it until it died would say its okay to kill it and the person who would say suck it up the day it's born are all for keeping it alive.

I am pro-choice, my concern for a fetus makes me want to shorten the elective time period for abortions (somewhere btwn 8-12 weeks). As far as people are concerned I am concerned about their life and quality of it from birth to death. However I do not wish to support lazy adults, the quality of a capable adult's life is their responsibility not mine.

Thanks for your kind words zosiasmom. Only a fool would blindly adhere to an extreme party platform. My political party affiliation is called "logic".

Good points in your second post!

I'm all for Democrats aborting their babies. The more the better. If we only had a law allowing them to institute infanticide and assisted suicide among themselves. In fact, even murder should be considered a misdemeanor if the victim was a Democrat.

I've actually suggested modifications to the system in the past that would hold "poverty parents" more responsible for providing a better quality life for the children they chose to have without the means to take care of them.

Wow, you really understand the nature of uncontrollable hormonal behavior and unplanned pregnancies. What a realist you are[n't].

Uncontrolable? Not hardly. If this were the case, every nerdy virgin who can't get laid would become a rapist. Everyone with a brain has the ability to temper or channel their hormones. Most simply choose not to. And a lot of that stems from our culture which encourages us to just whimsically give into those impulses and worry about the consequences later. "Unplanned pregnancies" are nothing but denial of responsibility. And I have full authority to say that as someone who has been through one and became a parent before he was ready. The entire scenario was a result of choices that I made. I was not a helpless victim of anything.

How will this improve things? It seems like it would just make things worse.

What kind of modifications?
