Okay I read through archives and abortion stories and that and I get most of them except the ones where married people are getting abortions?? I don't get it. Why get married which is where you make a promise to God to be faithful and multiply and then go and have your children removed? It makes no sense at all, if you don't want kids then fine but leave marriage alone because it's not for you??

You unsympathetic ball-o-stupid, women have abortions because

(1) it can threaten their LIVES, depending on the physical conditions.
(2) a fetus may have died in utero
(3) a fetus may be severely deformed, such that it can expect nothing but a brief life full of pain.
(4) a whole bunch of lesser (but perfectly valid) reasons, including (but not limited to):
....mom's health is threatened
....mom is providing the only income
....there are already more children than they can afford to raise
....parents are divorcing
....dad has done a runner

Women having abortions are not limited to horny adolescents. If you don't understand that it's because you are LUCKY enough not to have had one of these things happen to you. Have some compassion for those who have had to deal with real problems.

Nothing was said during my wedding ceremony about multiplying. Hubby and me married because we (ok, mostly me) wanted to. We were faithful to each other before we married and we are faithful now; we don't need the threat of any deity to do that, the love for each other is a much better “glue”.

Children have a birthday, and they breathe. Embryos in week 9, or so, when most abortions happen, do not.

It makes perfect sense: if you feel you are not able to provide a good life for a possible future child, you ought not to bring that child into the world. If you have, say, three kids and feel that is as much as you can handle, having a fourth child will be bad both for the already existing children, and for the new one.

Marriage IS for me; I loved having the party (the dress, the cake, the food, the families and friends), and the gifts were great, I love that hubby and me have the same name (my family's name, btw), and to be able to tick the "married" box on forms.

If God wanted us to multiply, he failed dismally; we haven't been able to become pregnant, even after 28 years together. Now I'm too old...

Neo, Neo, Neo... Get your little act togeter.

Despite what you might think this site is full of rather intelligent people and this thing you`re doing here, it`s getting really insulting. I`m a metalhead, I am also unlike many here strongly against abrahamics(notice the term, it`s not just christians) as a group and religious folk as a whole, been called out on it even iirc since my views tend to be more in line with "no, we can`t all live together and compromise, not when what me and mine are after is the deepest sacriliege of their ideology and the greatest fear of their rulers" but you Neo, you simply have no words of your own, little troll.

See, the hatred for religion to be justified must come from somewhere other than teenage angst, it must be the only logical conclusion on the road you follow with all conviction, even as you are aware of just how many otherwise good and decent people you`re going to trash in the process and for that alone your reasons must be ever present and understood.

@NeoMatrix:

Where did I say I was againt the procedure? Matter of fact you simply seem to be a bit too enthusiastic about it. It`s necessary but why would you celebrate it, do you celebrate removing a zit?

Also, simply put, medical procedures are not "metal" in any known sense of the word and once again, why is it specificaly christians you so rally against when it is their entire religious tree that is covered with poison and bile?

At the end one could quesion a motivation of "sticking it" to some particular group, seems like something done out of spite, instead of in belief in the best intrest of your own. See, I could really care less what a bunch of nutty monkeys are doing with their free time and how they restrict their own lives, only it`s not that simple...

For most of them to have their beliefs vindicated, they must make it universal, thus restricting my time, my ambitions and my dreams, not to mention the scientific progress on which they all hinge.

Simply put I don`t want to see our planet along wih our species destroyed by some small time cosmic happening just because a group of fearful idiots would not allow the extinction event stopping tech to develop and though I appreciate dying of old age in bed as much as the next mortal, I`d rather continue my existence beyond this shell of meat and juices, not something the priests(and their flocks) of most faiths would allow if they could, since the very possibility denies them their last tool of control. Hence my stance against them, hence my hatred of the controlling sociopaths of all colours and stripes.
