The idiocracy of Anti-Realists By Marie Zellmer March 25, 2014
If you are a MAN, imagine having a uterus with polycystic ovaries that bleeds every month for ten days with associated hormone changes and physical aches and pains. Now imagine that for several weeks you are struck with dehabilitating back pain that keeps you from work, school, and even caring for yourself. Doctors say nothing is wrong, and then you find out that it is due to a mal-attached fetus. What to do? Fetus won't make it, and you will lose your job, fail your college classes, and possibly lose your life. If having a baby is all you want, great - do it! If aborting and waiting till your body can take it with a healthy fetus is what you want, then you will thank GOD that a safe choice is available. I did. So stand on the corner and annoy everyone because that is all you are doing. If you want to change minds, or help those who face an abortion decision for reasons like rape, incest, abandonment, or fear, start an organization that provides rent, food, medical treatment, and keeps babies born out of uncaring foster homes till they are 18. Don't stand on the corner and post juvenile descriptions of unrealistic thought processes in fetuses with undeveloped brains. Besides how would you like to be a rape victim's bastard foster child? One last thing, how many people who oppose abortion have adopted those babies they supposedly care about? And don't say because adopting is hard to do -- so is having an unwanted or unhealthy pregnancy. Marie Zellmer About: "20 year ketchikan resident, and person with some common sense."
