quote:

Those encouraging abortion for rape victims often do so because they are uncomfortable dealing with the issue. We are encouraged to think that destroying the baby 'solves the problem'. It's seen as a "quick fix" but it avoids dealing with the woman's true emotional, social and financial needs.

The voices of rape victims all too-often go unheard. According to Kathleen DeZeeuw, "I, having lived through rape, and also having raised a child conceived in rape, feel personally assaulted and insulted every time I hear that abortion should be legal because of rape and incest. I feel that we're being used by pro-abortionists to further the abortion issue, even though we've not been asked to tell our side."

We have examined the issues of pregnancy through rape in the issues section of 'abortion' and in the sexual assault section of 'women'. In this section, we look at the issue from the view of the child; by giving a voice to children who were conceived through rape and lived.

We must recognize that the children conceived through sexual assault have a voice which deserves to be heard. Julie Makimaa, conceived by an act of rape, works diligently against the perception that abortion is acceptable or even necessary in cases of sexual assault. While naturally sympathetic to the suffering her mother endured at the hands of her attacker, Julie is also rightfully proud of her mother's courage and generosity. Regarding her own view of her origin, Julie proclaims: "It doesn't matter how I began. What matters is who I will become."

what I see from you is a "troll boy" who cannot answer a genuine question that rightly follows from your inane response to me.

first---"millions" of girls get raped and end up pregnant??

second---back to bosco's point, by all means, post the stories of all the kids who wished they'd been aborted. like he said, since there are millions, they should be easy to find.

but even then, its besides the point. despite the probable presence of some of women wishing they had killed their babies, or some adults wishing they hadnt been born, the reason I posted what I did is because all the comrade posts prior to it were all doom and gloom and the girls life is over blah blah blah. so those posts are an example of people making the best out of adverse conditions, and giving life a chance. the posts are ones of hope, not killing an innocent baby.

im a staunch conservative leaning libertarian. I promote and argue from that point of view. I criticize where I can views and positions I reject. I see the left as the enemy, and ive rationally explained, on multiple occasions, how.

that's "hyperpartisan?" sorry...its called knowing what I believe and acting accordingly. do you even know what the term means?

i'll help---partisan: a strong and often UNCRITICAL supporter of a person or cause---emphasis on the word "uncritical". hyper: excessive.

[learn how to use words correctly, it helps.]

alternatively, partisan hack: someone who cares more about supporting a particular party or ideology than supporting what is morally right, or factually true.

no doubt the irony is lost on you that I spend a fair amount of my time here confronting that very thing.

kinda like this gem you might recognize:

"trumps supporters are below average intelligence and believe everything he says."

but more to the point of your original charge---ive "lowered the bar, complained about the most petty drivel imaginable, and lack integrity?" again, feel free to send me a long private message with all the multitudes of my transgressions.

[in this case---feel free to message me with all the "hyperpartisan stuff"]

again, the put up or shut up thing....

all the while accusing me of lying if I believe otherwise about myself than you believe about me. nice bar there! [and bosco]

for good measure while im here, you, like other lefties here, need to look up the word "lie."
