The issue with China forcing abortions to lessen the amount of children being born is always an issue that is concerning to pretty much all parties involved. Both Pro-Choice and Pro-Life is unified on this one aspect. Both parties seem to be in agreement that it is a moral injustice
Well, this is what Pat Robertson had to say about it:
quote:
"I don't agree with it," Robertson said. "But ... they've got 1.2 billion people, and they don't know what to do. If every family over there was allowed to have three or four children, the population would be completely unsustainable.... They're doing what they have to do."
Not much moral outrage there.
How can you in one instance say that a fetus is not a human being at all with no rights available to them, and yet, hypocritically cry foul ball because more female non-humans are being killed at a higher rate than male non-humans? That makes no sense whatsoever.
It is exactly like saying that you have a right under the First Amendment to say any irrational thing that comes out of your mouth, but criticizing you when you do so.
The silly thing is that you think that you are going to "force[ ] proponents of abortion to face the humanity of their decision...," as if nobody who has ever had to make the choice or thought about the issue has done so. This displays your arrogance, the apparent belief that anyone who disagrees with you simply hasn't been "forced" to look at it correctly and once they do, they will necessarily agree with you. It doesn't work that way, Binky. I've spent a great deal of time thinking of abortion and its consequences, and come to my conclusion. For you to presume that I just haven't given it enough thought and you can bring me to my senses with one question on a forum board is rather insulting.
