I have to be honest. I take issue with the statement of a woman's body being her own. The female body was designed to support producing life. When a woman becomes pregnant, she's technically sharing her body with the unborn child. Without getting too graphic, if a woman decides to have sexual relations with a man, and pregnancy happens, then her choice begins? Shouldn't it be before the pregnancy happens that she makes her choice, not after? The fact that a decision so serious gets diminished to a simple 'yes or no' decision, when it really deals with another life, is disappointing. Even if you don't view it as murder because the unborn child hasn't developed a brain yet, though I'm not too familiar about when abortions usually take place, it still is likely going to develop brain functions at the point after the abortion would have taken place, and that process is unnaturally cut short.

The rape scenario is tossed around, a lot, and I do go back to my point of how often that really happens in the ratio of abortions. It's not an impossibility, but who should be punished, here? The rapist, or the unborn child who is innocent, despite what happened? I'm not honestly even sure how I feel about adoption in that scenario, though it may be too difficult for the mother to deal with this whole scenario. It's just that this scenario seems to be an excuse to allow all abortions.

I must say, though, that I'm beginning to fully oppose this blog idea. XD
