To Kill or Not to Kill??
I have always been unsure of the right decision when it comes to pro-choice. Abortion can be such a hard choice to argue. I absolutely do not argue with women who call it a mistake and decide to have an abortion. For a person to just decide they do not want the responsibility to take care and be responsible for another person is selfish. You should know the risks that you are taking every time you have sex. Regardless if the sex is between you and your husband or a casual fling you have decided to engage in. Whether you are on birth control or if you are certain that your brand of condom will never break. You are still releasing yourself to a very wide load of risks. So for a person to decide: "OPPS!” “Didn't mean for that to happen" and just erase it like it never occurred is wrong. But I must admit that there are those other situations that when we learn about them, you thank God it's not a decision we had to make. A situation such as a rape victim who had unprotected sex forced upon them. WOW! What do you do with this one? Some looser decides he doesn't care about life and robs you of your decision to make several choices and you end up with a child of a rapist. Do you kill it, or do you take the risk of raising a stranger’s child. Or if the rapist is not a stranger, do you raise the child knowing that is the product of an acquaintance and the child is a constant reminder?

I agree with you. If you think you are responsible enough to have sex, you are saying you know the risks you are taking and should take responsibility for this too. I see abortion as murder. If you can get in trouble for 2 murders if you kill a pregnant woman, why is it not murder to kill your own?
My friends and I were talking about this the other day and I know that if I were pregnant I would be scared but I know I could never kill my child. I think that if I were raped my decision would not change either especially knowing that it was not my fault; I did not make a mistake or anything. It is almost like I would be doing something good to raise this child!
I feel the rape situation is a hard one to judge. I feel extremely bad for those who have to go through rape. It damages a girl emotionally without the results of being pregnant and is only worse when a baby is involved. Ultimately I think abortion is wrong in any situation. I feel it is God’s job. Every baby is a precious life and I do not think any misjudgments or wrong doings should be taken out on that innocent child. In a rape or any other situation, I think if it is too hard to raise the child they should at least put the child up for adoption, giving it a chance at a successful life.
