<DIV> Regardless of how many reasons and technical scientific
know how the fact is that abortion should be made illegal AND
IS as bad as murder. We could argue endlessly for
hours <EM>about all the details </EM>but neither of us will totally ever
agree ( knowledge of past discussions).</DIV>
<DIV> As far as whether or not done when it was
illegal I think that if the doctors were served
severe criminal punishment or served the death penalty
we wouldn't be where we are today.</DIV>
<DIV> THere are many people I know that can't have
children and want to adopt them. Killing an unborn baby is murder
and sin. I find myself agreeing with Dr. James Dobson a
lot on these issues.</DIV>

first note that nobody signed their name to this statement.<BR>> <BR>>
Second, whoever wrote it mis-spelled what I assume was meant to say<BR>>
"abortion."<BR>> <BR>> Although I believe there are some circumstances in
which abortion is <BR>> a<BR>> necessary measure, the sheer number of
abortions performed in this <BR>> nation<BR>> is obscene, as is the casual
way women (and men in their lives) <BR>> decide to<BR>> turn to
it.<BR>> <BR>> It has been a long time since anyone who says "abortion
should be<BR>> illegal" has had to face the real consequences or meaning of
that<BR>> statement. If abortion is "illegal" then there are criminal
<BR>> penalties for<BR>> having one. I for one do not believe that putting
women in prison <BR>> for<BR>> first trimester abortions, or putting
doctors in prison who <BR>> performs<BR>> abortions at such women's
request, is an effective or appropriate <BR>> way to<BR>> lower the number
of abortions.<BR>> <BR>> Since you said nothing more than "abortion should
be illegal," there <BR>> is<BR>> no point in giving the statement a more
detailed reply. But there <BR>> are a<BR>> lot of things that can and
should be done to reduce the number of<BR>> abortions, create a culture in
which the decision is made more <BR>> seriously<BR>> and with more
consideration of all the prices that come with having <BR>> an<BR>>
abortion (not just the pains and prices of pregnancy). <BR>> Unfortunately,
the<BR>> state is a poor and often a powerless instrument for accomplishing
<BR>> this<BR>> purpose. When abortions were illegal, millions of them
were done <BR>> anyway.<BR>> <BR>> Siarlys<BR>> <BR>> <BR>>
