What really gets me is that not too long ago a law firm specializing in divorce had to take down their billboard after complaints were made against their ad which said, “Life’s too short – get a divorce”. So why isn’t that same attitude being played out with the Niagara Region Right to ‘Hate’ group? I mean, come on! It’s 2008 it’s time to get your rosaries off my ovaries! As most of you know I’m a pro-choice advocate (not to be confused with a pro-abortion advocate – as I don’t stand outside the offices of obstetricians and bully mothers-to-be into having abortions), as well as an advocate for women’s rights so as you can hallucinate I don’t take these ads lightly.

What bothers me most about Pro-Life advocates is their willingness to perceive women who have abortions as “murderers”, putting them into the same category as Paul Bernardo, Robert Piketon, and Jeffery Dahlmer. To declare that a fetus whose is under 12 weeks as a full fledged human being is like saying that sperm are also human beings who are being murdered through the use of condoms, and to compare a woman who has had an abortion to a murderer is like comparing a man who gets a vasectomy to the act of genocide. Seriously, a fetus under 12 weeks is NOT a child (for it cannot breathe on its own).

People who use ignorant words like "murder" to describe abortion are saying that an embryo - something which has the potential to become a person - is the same as an actual person. Potential people are not the same as actual people. Ending the biological life of an embryo through abortion is morally very different from taking the life of a full human being.

Abortion isn’t even mentioned in the Bible, (even though even back then some women terminated their pregnancies)! In fact, Exodus 21:22 says that if men are fighting, and one of them injures a pregnant woman, causing her to miscarry, the one who injured her may be required to pay a fine to the woman's husband. The Bible views this occurrence as a property crime against the woman's husband, which should be financially compensated - not as a violent crime against a foetus. However, there are several passages that condemn the use of forced abortion as a weapon of war. There is no passage in the Bible that forbids women from choosing to terminate a pregnancy, or that condemns those who help them.

I’m not saying that I agree with women who use abortion as a birth control measure, but that isn’t the majority anyway, (some are rape victims, incest survivors, some HAVE to have an abortion for health issues i.e. ectopic pregnancy etc). I don’t think it is MY decision or anyone else but the TWO PEOPLE involved, in the case of what they do with the pregnancy. I think that a woman has the right to decide for herself when and whether to have a child. I believe that a woman can make that decision on her own, based on her own personal beliefs, health, and life-circumstances, without government or courts walking it. As the late Pierre Elliot Trudeau once said "the state has NO business in the bedrooms of its citizens". And I really don’t think we as the public have ANY business standing outside an abortion clinic waving signs and trying to persuade a young girl not to have an abortion unless you yourself are willing to raise that child on your own.

With that being said I think it’s about time the city of Toronto forced the Niagara Region Right to Life back to it’s city and get rid of that damn billboard.

Hi Wendy.. thank you for visiting my journal when you did.. :)
I have written my answer for you.. long as usual.. LOL..

You are right.. it is each individuals choice.. I don't like abortions myself but I have supported a friend even when she chose to abort. I would rather see that people are encouraged that there are choices other then abortion and support if they do choose to go on with the pregnancy.. But they also need our respect for their decision.. Condemnation is not the answer.. Hate/bigotry only leads to hate/bigotry..

You know the wonderful thing is God doesn't condemn people for abortion.. Rather He loves them and His view on all matters regarding choices we must make in this life.. Is He is merciful and full of grace and love if we do make the wrong choice.. He knows the real issues we are facing and why we do the things we do.. I know He unlike us takes all things into consideration and He is just and He doesn't judge by human standards.. He looks at our hearts!!

I think the harder issues are.. how to live in the world side by side of people who don't see things the same as us or know what we know.. Our neighbors have every right to be themselves as we do.. Duh!! Yet we always seem to just point the finger and the gap just gets wider.. If we trully have something worth sharing.. lets not do it from a judgemental high and mighty seat.. but with love on the same level!!

We are killing the potential in a living soul every time we disrespect them and neglect to love them.. Yet we do it over and over and over and don't even realise it.. If we really really loved every person it would change our whole world..

If those who see the fetus as a potential human being or God given gift.. Just got alongside those going in to the clinics or wherever they were going.. Gave them a bit of love.. and a drink and comfort while they waited despite what was decided.. An arm around a shoulder.. An ear.. I bet you that kind of suppport
would see many of

these precious women going home with much more then just what they came in with!! I think many would choose not to abort and this would be their own choice!! They would know that someone cared.. and that there was support if they had a hard road to travel.. And lets face it.. having a baby is a life changing event!! And for many they have so many other obstacles as well to navigate and they don't feel they can go on to have a baby.. for whatever reason!!

Oh my..

Enough said... from your long winded Aussie friend..

Have a good rest of the weekend..from Sharon

You know this speaks to me even as I read it.. I just had to write this also LOL.. Sorry Wendy.. When I supported my young friend through her unplanned pregnancy.. she felt supported to go on to keep her 2nd pregnancy..
Yes I am sad that she aborted her first.. but I loved my friend.. And I am so glad she felt able to keep her second pregnancy..
I believe very much that this kind of support helped her make the big choice to keep her second pregancy and she gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl named Megan.. And it WAS a big choice.. she went on to be a single mother!!

Hee hee.. our oldest son is waiting to use the computer.. now I do need to go.. You have been spared.. :)

Well said, Wendy.

Don't you get it? I don't give a rats ass about your ovaries. I care about your unborn child. That's MY choice to care.
