Going back to the roots of life

Going back to the roots of life

It seems the subject of abor- tion is one of the most misunderstood subjects on the planet. That being the case, due to ignorance or to not wanting to know the truth, just what is the truth?

Lets face some facts. Abortion is a procedure to eliminate a part of the body that is unwanted due to rape or free sex of any nature. Let’s look at the first situation. A female gets raped. She has, of course, two choices: get an abortion or have the baby. I don’t know what percentage of women make the different choices. But one thing we must look at is this: there are many women who want children but can’t get pregnant for different reasons, and they would be glad to receive a child through other means. With that thought in mind, could not the woman who has been raped have the baby and allow it to be given to a woman under those circumstances using the legal procedures? And choosing to do that, she many change her mind and decide to keep what is a part of her after she sees a child she has chosen to give life.

If she chooses the abortion, she has chosen to ignore the opportunity to give a child to one who wants one, but is unable to have one on their own. And also decided not to allow the one inside her to have life out of the womb.

Now to the second part of a woman getting pregnant because of free sex of any nature. If a woman gets pregnant in that fashion, then she is obligated to fulfill her obligation to herself and to produce the life she was willing to allow through her sexual desires. She does not have the right to have an abortion. Freedom demands consequences no matter what the cost. We all know that to be true in all other facts of life. Thus it is also true with this denial of abortion.

There are those who believe that abortion opponents use religion as their motivating factor and that they ignore the fact that science proves that life does not commence until birth. To that, I offer the following scientific argument, based on “root cause analysis.” For something to exist it, must have a starting point. Then what is the root cause analysis starting point for life? It must have started at conception. This is a fact that cannot be disputed without ignoring logic altogether, and that is what science brags about using to prove every belief.
