The majority of kids who are abused are abused by their parents. Being a parent doesn't necessarily make a person more sensitive than people without kids.

Abortion is the only contraceptive that is 100% guaranteed to work.

Woooah now I didn't come onto this thread to say whether or not people are right or wrong. Just saying I thought it was funny because it was so blunt and she's not afraid to speak her mind. Whether she's right or not.

we need some humour in here! lets lighten it up

Having an abortion is killing a baby,no question about it. Calling it a different name doesn't mean it wouldn't have been a person.

Abortion is not murder, because a fetus is not an actual human bein,it is a potential human being, i.e. it is a part of the woman.

Only some people think like this, like I said, others say its a living thing at conception.

They should have funerals every time it doesn't take, and the woman flushes it out.

Potential human being? What is this a game show? Every human being was once a foetus,killing a 'foetus' is killing a human,because they would have a person the woman hasn't had an abortion.

You're in Ireland, and live under control of the Catholic Church. Irish families have upwards of 5-plus kids per family. Birth control is still seen as sinful. I'm not surprised your mind is so warped when it comes to abortion. Science does not agree with you. It is an embryo, not a baby.

Who runs the schools? Give me a break. Ireland has major issues when it comes to women's rights.

The Church runs some of the schools, yes, but it's purely administrative. Our youth are incredibly secular and can be usually found smoking joints out the back during relgion class. I know this because I was brought up in the system. The one you have no idea about.

Seriously, come here and take a look around. You'd be in for a rude awakening.

Rubbish. Abortion may be illegal here but the Catholic Church has about as much public influence as Jimmy Saville in Ireland these days. And Irish families on average these days are getting smaller and smaller. In line, if not smaller, than the average of a British family.

As for abortion? A foetus is not capable of thought or emotion. It is not capable of the things that set us apart from what we chop up and kill on a plate every evening.

Ok now because I'm Irish I'm under control of 'The Catholic Church?' That's not patronising at all. I'm not religious,at all. I just personally don't believe in abortion. It's a personal choice,but I won't have people telling me it's not killing a living thing when it clearly is!

Im not Irish and I am not Catholic, I see embryo's as potential people, but I do not see abortion as throwing old jeans in the bin, it needs serious thought. And I could see quite clearly how people could regret doing it, your crazy.
