Re: the Truth
This is a fact. People who want to have a baby, are absolutly changed when that precious moment happens.
Great! People who want babies aren't generally out there having abortions once they know they might have a baby. I'm sure there are exceptions.
Now: How do people who don't want babies feel when this precious moment happens? Are they generally super happy? Absolutely changed?
It's all about selfishness. It's a regretable action to abort a baby. I would respect everyone more, if they would just admit that.
Well, cross me off your respect list. I don't think abortion is inherently regrettable. I think it can be a good thing. Besides, if you want to talk about selfishness, I think having a baby is more selfish than aborting one.

No it's not, Your saying I kill innocent helpless babies because I care.
No I'm not. I'm saying that choosing to have a baby is a selfish act of "I GOTTA SPREAD MY GENES" when there are god knows how many already-born, air-breathing (not liquid breathing) children out there without homes, parents, etc.
And I don't believe a fetus/zygote is a baby/infant/child. I think there are different words for these stages of growth for a reason. So what you're saying I'm saying is not what I'm saying. I'm saying I favor killing innocent fetuses/zygotes because I care.
It's all about correcting a "mistake". But it's not a mistake when you get pregnant, if you intentionally have sex.
I agree with you, it's not a mistake. It can be an undesired consequence, though.
