I know that there's tons of abortions going on everyday, and it's always in my church prayer list, but I don't think I've ever actually heard anyone pray for God to stop abortion. This is a major issue! We need to pray every day, and do what we can to show we are pro-life.

These two websites Bound4Life and American Life League's National Pro-Life T-Shirt Day and great sites with info about abortion, what's going on (mainly U.S. but I'm sure the rest of y'all would find it interesting as well) in the fight for LIFE! The first has wristbands (like to LiveStrong bands) that you can order, and the second one is about Pro-Life T-Shrit day. You can get the shirt for only $5, and on April 26, people all over are going to be wearing them.

Please tell me what y'all think about this, because I know it's a very big, important issue, but I don't hear much about it.

you know, I personally would never have an abortion, i think its murder, also, how could you kill you own flesh and blood, its not right
i will tell others how i feel but i will not end a friendship becuse someone had an abortion
i just dont think its right to have one
the only time i find it to be somewhat ok to have an abotion is if the child was concived out of rape

I dont care anymore...

It's still killing the life, and there's always adoption and things like that. Sometimes you have to deal with things, it's just the way life goes.

I agree with you guys, I think abortion is wrong under all cirumstances.
No-one has the right to take a life away from someone, only God should have that kind onf control over peoples lives.
Going back to the rape point, KristiElizabeth I know what you mean, you have good point, but Elf_Linwe is right, it's still a life.
I know people think it's ok because it isn't even a human yet, but it is, the 2nd you fall pregnant that baby inside you is alive.
Oh and can I just say, because people get this wrong all the time, the morning after pill is a form of abortion, please don't treat it as contraception.

As I've said countless times before, and will naturally always be flamed for it but I'm ok with that, is that you shouldn't judge or say things too quickly. You may say you wouldn't get an abortion now if the situation ever came up but your faith and moral beliefs would definitely be put to the test if you got thrown into it. You don't know what you would truly do until you've gone through the experience. So until you have gone through it (and if some of you already have and held on to the kid, bravo) I say don't say what you would or wouldn't do. Because honestly you have no clue until it actually happens.

And for the record, no, it is not abortion. All medical studies and such show that this pill PREVENTS fertilization. Therefore it isn't abortion. Abortion is after fertilization when you actually ARE pregnant. If the pill caused the embryo to cease existing then it would be abortion. But because it prevents it it isn't abortion at all.

Ok maybe you're right, I don't have medical studies to back me up, but i just see it as contraception is something to prevent you from getting pregnant, if you take the morning after pill, that is after you have had sex, therefore there is still a possibilty that you could be pregnant and you are killing the child that you may soon be carrying.

can i just say somthing, dont mean to be rude or annoying, but in my understanding, Contraception is a method of PREVENTING the connection of the Sperm and the Egg, and Abortion is the method of making sure this connection is disturbed so that life cannot continue.

Ok, we all agree with that? yes?

Well, the Morning After pill is exactly what it says it is morning AFTER, after Sex and AFTER life has been started in the egg. Scientists say that the life hasnt started until the egg has settled and is not floating around, when it has embedded itself in the womb, but they have also said that life is a form of energy, energy is chemical reactions and Mitosis occur(Mitosis is the way Cells civide and duplicate themselves) So if Energy is the cells dividing, and chemical reactions tking place(which is really all fertilisation is) and Energy is a form of life, then in my books, this is a living being that will be killed by the morning after pill, just because it hasnt settled, there are still reactions taking place before it does, so it is alive.

Hope that made sense and if not, ill try to explain what you are confused about.

Well first off, the pill can be taken within 60 hours of having sex. It is best used within 72 hours though. But just because it says AFTER does not mean it is AFTER life has been started in the egg. It can be if you don't take it soon enough. But for those that do there is no life in the egg, it gets stopped.
How is it killing a baby by stopping a baby from happening? Or better yet, here's a question for some of you (since I know some Christians are very strong on their opinions of birth control), will you use birth control when you're married and sexually active? Why or why not? My answer: yes, I will. Why? Because I wanna settle down with my husband first before going straight to parenthood. Which is also another good reason why I'm hoping to (God willing) marry young. Since you're still adjusting while you're young and all...anyway, I just find it kinda silly that all these people are against birth control and such when they're likely to use it once they're married.

I see nothing wrong with contraception, as long as it doesnt take over your life and marriage, The time it starts to become wrong and immoral is (in my opinion) when you feel a 'need' for your husband/wife, instead of a need for your God, this is where it is wrong because you have not put God foremost in your life.

So, no, i see nothing wrong with it IF it is used appropriately and maturely

I do, however disagree with the fact that a 14 year old could walk into public toilets and get a pack of condoms without question(i believe pharmacists sell them to 14yr olds too) this is wrong, how can the law say one thing(no sexual relations before 16 years) and not do anything about it? It truly is a bad world we live in.

Have you seen some of the 14 year olds out there lately? I met a 13 year old and I thought she was 19 for about two weeks before she finally told me her age eek
