I was always against abortion until about a year ago, probably. Most of my views changed about then. I'm not an idiot, so much, anymore.

I think abortion is fine, as long as it isn't abused. If someone is having multiple abortions within a couple of years, then something needs to be done. If someone accidently gets knocked up and doesn't feel like they are ready for a child, I think they should first have to take a class on ALTERNATIVES to abortion, before they can actually have an abortion. I think that adoption is probably the better choice.

I don't think the "abortion is alright because the world is overpopulated" argument is a good one, even if it might be true. There are better ways to go about fixing overpopulation problems.

I used to feel the same way, but the more I learn about biology the more I am against that particular view.

How do you mean? What does biology have to do with my POV?

Well, I felt that the fetal life is about equivalent to a human life. I may be incorrect in my assumption, but perhaps you did as well? You seemed to agree with my point of view last year, which is the basis of my assumption.

I'm not really of that opinion so much. I don't believe what I believe for moral reasons. There are lots of people who would love to have a child but can't. Also, I believe abortion is ending a potential for human life. I'm still pro choice, but I think adoption should be encouraged rather than abortion, mainly because someone else might want the baby.

If the issue is that having a baby is not desireable for the parent, abortion and adoption are equally applicable for the parent. Adoption could help someone else, as well.

This is what I was talking about. Biology has helped me better understand this idea.

We're overpopulated as it is. The earth is over stressed and if people don't want to have kids they really just shouldn't. That's my .02 dollars.

My views completely. In the end the woman has the choice, but it really shouldn't be encouraged, the baby is just as human as you or I.

If you're irrisponsible and the baby is a mistake, adoption should be your path, it was your stupid blunder you should take responsibility for. Like how you shouldn't cheat in school because the purpose is not to get good grades, but to educate you on the consequences of your actions, ie learning the material, time management, course selection.

And condoms are not the same as abortion, because it prevents the whole process from ever happening, not the further development of the embryo/fetus.

Condoms can break or if not the proper size/used improperly slide off and cause unwanted pregnancy. Early unwanted pregnancies can signifigantly affect quality of life for the young family.

I contest this statement. (Note: Fetus is the appropriate term)

I used to be against abortion. Then in 7th grade I was given an assignment to argue for abortion. After studying the reasons, I am now for abortion.

Most women have had billions of gamets(sp?) meet their demise in their gullets. What's an extra zygote thrown in the mix? Imo.
