COMMENTARY

And to the men on here, saying abortion is wrong. Women just shouldn't get pregnant. You don't even have the right to say anything, considering you can't even carry a child, and you have no idea what it would be like to become pregnant. So rude, and disrespectful. Maybe some of you should have been aborted.

When news is brought to one of them, of [the birth of] a female [child], his face darkens, and he is filled with inward grief! With shame does he hide himself from his people, because of the bad news he has received! Shall he keep this [child] despite the contempt [which he feels for it] or shall he bury it in the dust? Oh, evil is indeed whatever they decide!" - The Quran (16:58-59)

Abortion should be considered as a crime because an inocent human being is being killed.

Did you ever thinked about abortion as a crime? I think the truth is that even the woman is the most beautiful thing in the world, she is the biggest murderer,and I'm so sad saying that...

Abortion should always remain legal and available.

A baby is a baby at the moment of fertilization, and THATS THAT!! I am sorry for all those people out there that are too dumb and don't think the same way and think that abortion is okay. The rate of abortion in the united states is sorry!! Considering that our country was built upon the WORD OF GOD!!!!

There are some very very uninformed comments that are largely due to misconceptions about abortion. Sam Harris, Letter to a Christian Nation, page 28-29. Sammy has some quality points.

It is perfectly fine if you believe that abortions are wrong. With that said, stop shoving your uneducated morals on womens rights. Thanks.

What is the percentage of most recent abortions for the united kingdom?, I would like this information for my assessment.

God has rememdy for this. Annihilation, according to the Bible. It's coming. The blood of every one of those babies will be required. As they consider those fetuses refuse, so will He see their carcases as refuse on the ground. (Jeremiah 25:31-33.)
There is no depth lower other than hell itself. Playing God, who shall live and who shall die. That's blasphemy.

Life starts the very moment fertilization occur so any body that commits abortion is a murderer and God will judge that person, except you pray fervently to God for forgiveness will he forgive youqQ.

23 Chromosomes from Mom + 23 Chromosomes from Dad = Human DNA. We use DNA to Identify Humans. Babies have Fingerprints after just 90 Days. Men get sentenced to Manslaughter for Accidentally killing an Unborn Baby, but the Mother of the same child can Exercise Her Right to Kill the Human Baby and go to Disneyland the next day. Pro-Abortion Minds are the height of Narcissism. 1,200,000 Killed Human Babies Each Year In The United States. That Fills Each Seat in the Rose Bowl of Pasadena 12 Times. Who could possibly be OK with that?

Toby, on 14th February 2010, you typed - Its not a baby at that point. Now shut your trap

I feel sorry for you and will pray over your mind and heart. I wasn't 6 weeks pregnant yet when I had my first sonogram in 2005. I not only could hear the faint sound but I was able to see the heart beat on the screen. Was my doctor and the equipment lying to me? On the day of conception, the woman has a living breathing life inside of her. I really feel sorry for your ignorance.

Abortion is terminating life, which is murder. Period. So much talk about control and yet we are not in control of our lives. We will be judged by God in the end and "trying to limit the world population" will not suffice as an excuse to extinguishing a soul.
Karen Collins

Millions of women around the world risk their lives and health to end an unwanted pregnancy. Every day, 55,000 unsafe abortions take place ­ 95% of them in developing countries­ and lead to the deaths of more than 200 women daily.Globally, one unsafe abortion takes place for every seven births.Deaths from unsafe abortion account for a significant percentage of all maternal deaths, although accurate data are difficult to obtain. WHO estimates that globally, one maternal death in eight is due to abortion-related complications. In some settings a quarter or more of all maternal deaths are abortion-related.Many women are afraid to seek treatment for abortion-related complications, leading to countless ­ and uncounted ­ deaths outside of hospitals.
