Chrisbenogor:
Can you kindly give what your response would be? Because like you said somewhere if at all you say you can terminate the pregnancy because it threatens the womans life then its murder still, if you leave it and the woman dies, still its murder. Whose life is better ?

Make me starve to death, lol ok your analogy is kinda flat but lemme humor you, I would try till my resources are exhausted and then anything that happens after that well that would be sad.

I understand the need to sound politically correct, I know you believe in God and you worship God and I know you believe God sees your inner most thoughts so there is no need for you to save face here. You would ask a girl 13 years old, who was raped viscously by 6 armed robbers to keep a child that would remind her of the trauma?
Lets start with the girl, how would it affect her psychologically. In Nigeria at least what most people do is move her away to a place where she would have less glare from the society still it would be nine months of horror. Even when the child is born I am very sure most of us have pissed our parents to the edge while growing up, you expect this not to be a source of constant emotional and psychological pain to her?
Lets move to the child, when he asks who is father is what fable would you give to him? He would eventually find out that he is son of "armed robbers" and trust little kids who ever get a hint to tease the hell out of the child, yet more psychological trauma........would you even allow your brother marry a woman who already had a child before?
Sighs.......the need to be politically correct.

dugochi: give the baby up for adoption.

Shekson: I am totally I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ support of abortion I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ early weeks of pregnancy. A foetus isn't an human being.
And for God's sake we have had incidences of women giving birth and dropping babies at hospitals and religious institutions cos they couldn't take care of dem.
I saw a family of four kids with their mum after their dad ran away. These kids can't afford to buy ordinary bathing soap. They sleep I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ a shop. If their poverty strucken mum had aborted at least two, then the oda two can have the little luxury of living on the available manageable resources. The burden becomes shifted on govt. Public schools are being flooded. Hau much can the govt afford on free quality education on exploding population of these kids?
Government daily preaches family planning. Religious institutions are meant to be preaching this but they don't.
I believe so much in legalizing abortion!!!

chassylite: abortion is murder ,
if cant train your kids, give it for childless family or for adoption or born less children whom your resources can cope with.

Logicboy03: Abortion is nowhere in the bible.


Yet christians use religious grounds to go against it

Remind me again...what does the bible say about adding/subtracting to the scripture?

victorv12: Abortion should be legalized. If it's legalized we won't be having all those bastard militants, ritual killers and crazy Nigeria politicians that litters every nook and cranny of our country cursing confusion.

Assuming it was legalized way back, Nigeria won't be having most of the problems we're having now. Abortion should be part of the family planning in our country. We really need abortion clinics in every borough and streets for the next coming generation of these bastards! We must be fully prepared before they bring them into this world.

Because presently, as a country, we don't have the social amenities to sustain the citizens presently not to talk about a girl that mistakenly got herself pregnant or doesn't want to raise a child and was being forced by her family to born it. If such a child is forced to be delivered, mentally, that child can't be sane. The moment you're being forced into this world and not properly groomed by your parents, and installing discipline and respect for the rule of law, all you bring from your mothers womb is anarchy!!

So I think such a child is rather being terminated than to bring destruction into this world in the first place!

chukwudi44:

No one is adding or subtracting anything from the scripture.The injunction was explicit enough:"thou shall not kill".

Atheists like you might not understand it anyway.These innocent babies deserve a chance to live!!

italo: I think most non-Catholic "churches" just like to avoid the topic because they are not strong-willed enough to stand for truth.

If they preached against vices like abortion and internet fraud regularly, most pentecostal "churches" would be empty in Nigeria.

Evil Brain: Abortion is a far more complex issue than you religious simpletons make it seem. The new law in Imo legalizes it only in cases of råpe, ïncêst and when the mother's health is at risk.

Religious hypocrites like to preach fire and brimstone against abortion, but if it was your wife, sister, or daughter that got råped, you'd all be singing a different tune.

Let us please remember that the 1999 constitution says Nigeria is a secular country so whatever your bible or koran or guru maraji book says is irrelevant. We are not subject to biblical law any more than we are subject to sharia. If you have a problem with the law, then you are free to not have an abortion whenever you are unfortunate enough to get råped.

That or you can move to Saudi Arabia.

chukwudi44: Most times the catholic church has been left to become the only vocal voice condemning abortion.Just recemntly Governor Rochas asssented a bill making some categories of abortion legal.I was taken aback by comments some christians who applauded the decision.In view of my understanding of the scriptures,abortion is murder and should not be encouraged.

I just want to know if abortion is alowed on the doctrine of most protestant churches or islam or is it just that these nairalanders just took the position just to spite the catholic church.

Chrisbenogor:
How is abortion evil?
The catholic church has till this day refused even accent to the use of proper contraceptives. I have no problem when you guys have an opinion on religious issues, but when common sense says otherwise then there has to be a problem.
Baby factories have been popping up left right and center, this menace has to be curbed and at the root of the matter is giving these young women the chance to terminate it before it becomes a bigger crime.
At least Imo state can become the capital in Nigeria where people travel to have a proper medical termination of their pregnancies.

chukwudi44:

Abeg help me tell them.There are so many people looking for foster kids.

Chrisbenogor:
The question my brother is the definition of Human being. Thats why I talked about where to draw the line.

PS,
This would flow a lot better if you answered my questions as well
I repeat
If a pregnancy would kill a woman, would you allow her carry it till the end still?
Do you think it is morally right to ask a woman who was Molested by an armed robber to keep a child that would remind her of the trauma?
