Often in abortion debates/discussions, you see folks who say they aren't for it, but for the option of it, to avoid backstreet abortions that are unsafe to the mother (and of course deadly to the child. ) To me, I think even the option is unacceptable, and that our country should not cater to a sin. Murder is unacceptable, and the "option" should not be legal. And I think a woman who goes as far as to get a backstreet abortion deserves what she gets for taking that risk to sin. Am I evil and unloving to think something like this?

Actually yes. Following your logic, we shouldn't permit death penalty or any sort of war. Yes, you're hearing clearly. After all, if murder is unacceptable and all life is precious, it means ALL. The mother's, the child's and every human being's.
Making abortions outright illegal exposes women with dangerous/unwanted preganancies to severe medical/emotional damage. In plain english, a full ban on abortion will, unfortunately, also ban abortions where the pregnancy threatens the health of the mother.
To answer your question - yes, evi and unloving!
Now, go and help making society better so every woman can afford to keep her babies! you fundy christians are missing when it comes to actually help those who were actually born. Is it because if the kids gets beaten and abused or starves to death it's god's will, while abortion is sin?
Murder is unacceptable, and the "option" should not be legal.
But if you're in favor of the war or you hunt or otherwise think killing animals is OK you're still a hypocrite.
to avoid backstreet abortions that are unsafe to the mother (and of course deadly to the child.)
we have glasses that don't break up, ships that don't get sunk, bottles that don't warm or cold up-
now thay want abortions that don't kill the child?
?????
WTF???
So, if you feel we should not cater to sin, what do you feel about the death penalty? "Thou Shalt Not Kill.." don'tchaknow? Could a savings account not be construed as Greed? One could go on for hours, really. Fact remains, these women will get an abortion, one way or the other. I, for one, wish for at least the mother to survive. You take the more petty route and say that she should die with the fetus. You're welcome to that opinion, I suppose, but I do have to concur with your closing statement. You are an evil, unloving, cold husk of a person.
"Am I evil and unloving to think something like this?"
I'm afraid I'll have to answer in the affirmative there.
On the other hand, I wish you well in coming to your senses on this. :)
our country should not cater to a sin
The other alternative is "our 'country' should take care of defending us, building roads and bridges, keep people from stealing and murdering each other and otherwise stay out of our business".
"Murder is unacceptable, and the 'option' should not be legal."
But I bet you're pro-war, you hypocrite.

Yes. Yes. A thousand times Yes. Go take a headfirst leap into a woodchipper, you heartless fucking bastard.
frankly, even if it was murder, if something as awful as back-alley abortions were used as a punishment it would be a worldwide scandal. and frankly, whether or not the mother is in the wrong, it is a rights conflict, it's not like she just felt like aborting a baby. she has rights, and whether or not the child's trump hers, it's not as simple as murder.
Why should Doctors who go into medicine to save lives, be forced to commit medical murders because of irresponsible people, who make irresponsible decisions,for a few moments of self gratification and choose death to the unborn as their solution and expect Doctors to kill the unborn while protecting their lives? I think THAT is pretty arrogant personally.
<<<Yes, you are! You are also an arrogant ass to assume that you can choose to place yourself between another and their conscience! Have a nice day!>>>
Reason: Irresponsible? IRRESPONSIBLE?! I thought VERY long and hard before aborting the child I knew (thanks to childhood abuse) I'd never be able to raise properly! Why don't you just admit that you want people punished for having sex?
Arrogant asshole!
And get another username, since you're not arguing from reason at all.
I will never be opposed to abortion (up to a certain gestational point) until the father is subject to an equal amount of punishment and life disruption as the mother. These pro-birth fanatics always make it sound as though the woman (or girl) got pregnant all by herself. In fact, even if the above were to happen, I'd still want there to be the option of abortion, because birth control can fail, and rape and incest do happen.
"Often in abortion debates/discussions, you see folks who say they aren't for it, but for the option of it, to avoid backstreet abortions"
"Murder is unacceptable"
Unless you're Superman, and one day you decide to get rid of all the nuclear weapons - a method of indiscriminate , and infinitely worse mass Murder - good luck with that.
As per Abortion, you cannot un invent nuclear devices. Or the knowledge behind the process.
Are you going to lobotomise/murder all the physicists in the world...?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
