Beware the incensed right wing nut job

[easilyabused]

I am wholly and completely sickened.

Now, I do call myself a Republican, but this is not Emily the Republican who has a problem with this, not even Emily the Girl. It's Emily the Human Being.

The idea of being spared the "horrors of this world" is very romantic, but I don't think that should mean the child doesn't deserve a chance at all, given that the world is certainly not one great horror nor is life one endless procession of pain and suffering. Life and death are really not for us to decide based on statistics or convenience or funds.

And I disagree. I think the problem here is that the "right" to take away life is seen as less of a problem than the right to create it, that murder is legal and then the use of aborted fetuses for scientific experiments and to create a whole new child from a dead one, it's horrific. The next thing we know they'll start growing fetuses for this sole purpose. Science is doing some pretty strange things nowadays.

I'm glad you agree with that, at least, that's good.

Re adoption versus having one's own children, however, there isn't much I can say because we won't agree. I've never adopted a child, but I have been pregnant, and I know there's a bond there that is very different from any other bond I have ever known. There are tons of children out there, certainly, and while they shouldn't have to suffer for their parents'inability or lack of desire to be there for them, it is hardly the public's responsibility to clean up after the parents if they want to have children of their own. The parents of the children in foster care and orphanages got to have children, so I think everybody should have that right, especially if they are financially and emotionally stable and able to support and raise children. Very well, I don't have a problem with it, you do, fair enough.

Why is it wrong to take eggs from anyone "period"?

[easilyabused]

Taking eggs from someone is strange and unnatural, but I hardly have a conscious problem with that. The issue here is that science has found a way to take eggs from a murdered child, oh hold on, aborted fetus and then make a new child from that for people who are trying in vitro fertilisation, which is completely backwards, not to mention morally deviant in a terrible way.

No offence, but that isn't an answer, that's just saying what it *is* they're doing with lots of negative adjectives. :P

It is an answer if you refer back to the "strange" and "unnatural" part of the reply, my dear. But that's not the cow that I am having.
