Do you agree that a single individual' can have a right to decide up on something as serious as?

Question

terminating another human life, without any scrutiny of the society or the judicial system?

Answer 1

yup.......especially when that other human life has no brain, and no nervous system.

Value the life that is already here...

Answer 2

Absolutely not.   Abortion is disgusting and selfish.  And don't come at me with, "What about rape, incest, and when the mother's life is in danger."  Those are completely different topics to be looked at in a completely different way.

Having an abortion just because you're "not ready" is disgusting and unforgivable.

Answer 3

A human life yes- a mass of cells no.

Answer 4

no, I am anti abortion especially if its being used instead of contraception.

I hear people saying a girls choice but she need not of got pregnant in the first place and as it takes two surely the guy is entitled to a say

to those who dont know about abortions they might well change their mind when they hear the feotus scream

another down side is how does the mother cope with her guilt,I have seen a couple of girls a couple or so years after their operation and they carry guilt, wondering who the baby would of looked like,what colour hair,eyes etc

I agree in cases of rape is entirely different

Answer 5

No, I don't. People will argue that "It's my body, my choice"

It's not "your body" that's being terminated, it's a childs body.

I used to be pro-choice, and almost had an abortion 6 years ago. I had the appointment set and the money in hand, but then I saw the her little feet during an ultrasound. I saw her little hands and feet wiggling and I was thrilled and amazed, and I there was no way I could have an abortion.

That was the smartest choice I ever made.

The little "fetus" I almost aborted is my now 5 year old daughter, Sophie. It amazes me to this day that I'd almost gone through with aborting her, and she would never exist. It's a scary thought.

Now I am absolutely pro-life.

Answer 6

Who else are you suggesting ?

If you are referring to abortion... The child would be born before the case ever saw light in a court of law... The courts are backed up for years... You might as well just ban abortions to go that route.

If you are referring to Euthanasia, the person would have suffered a horrible and slow death (or succeeded in suicide) before the case ever went to court...

Answer 7

So, why are you deciding over other person's life???...There's a really famous case on my country before abortions was legal, a 12 old year girl who was raped assisted to a clinic which supposedly was to help girls on her situation. It was a pro life clinic, they threaten her with the h**l and all kind of moral arguments, she was a poor migrant, and felt scare, so she decided no to do the abortion, so now, she’s taking care of a boy who she didn't ask and nobody helps her. In my country there's not support for single mothers. Those persons decided over Paulina’s life.

Answer 8

yes i'm pro choice( that is what you're asking right?)

Answer 9

Well if the question is about abortion,  my answer has to be :  there is no consensus as to when life actually begins.....

When you can irrefutably prove, beyond the shadow of a doubt,  the exact moment at which to confer "life" upon the entity in the womb,  then you can let the judicial system process people who violate that life.  

And please think about this...  Have you ever found an abandoned egg that the mother bird tossed out of the nest?  

Medical ethics is tricky business, and not just on the abortion debate -   think about hospice care, euthanasia, organ transplants (how to decide who gets one?)  etc.

Answer 10

A human life, no.  A fetal life, yes.

Answer 11

Yes.

Do you think that other people should have a say in what goes on in the interior of YOUR body?

Answer 12

Yes I do, what we do with our own bodies is up to us. We can't force a person to have an aoperation etc so why should this be any different. Also it's all very well saying the scrutiny of  society and judges, but will these judges and society take on the responsibility of the child themselves? No it will be the good old tax payer that pays for another illegitimate child.
